I was driving one of these cars when I abandoned it for the other one. If you guesses the one on the left, try again. I was so giddy to have finally found one, I tried to abandon the mission I was in in order to store it in my garage. That sweet Vapid Stainer had better be there when I get back from this stupid tow truck job.

I'd say mine is racing a heavily modded malaisical land yacht (Albany Emperor) with matte black paint and a chrome Landau roof, with oversized off-road tires, across the desert, shooting at coyotes with a pistol.

Futo GT (AE86) wins every time for jalop.

This is my most Jalop moment...
Damn I'm jealous though, I was looking for one of those for hours earlier.

An Emperor? Man, I thought I had odd taste in GTA cars.
P.S. What colour is your Michael's Tailgater? Bright yellow?

My most Jalop moment was finding a Dominator and then respraying it with dark green.

The thing with GTA is that there's too many different models for the game to spawn simultaneously, so not only does it spawn different cars depending on the neighbourhood, but it also picks from different batches. These batches change depending on what part of the story you're in, so that's why you'll see a ton of the same model one day, and none the next. Do a mission or two, and re-check Strawberry to Hawick and in between.

Nice choice. I went with light orange w/ black stripes.

I wish it had more modification options like the real thing.

Once I bought the LS Customs with Franklin, I took to just taking random cars and seeing what I could do with them.
My favorite so far is the Coil Voltic/Tesla Roadster, which for whatever reason is the absolute fastest car in the game, even above the Adder/Veyron SS
It changes from time to time. It was matte black for a while, then matte dark blue, then matte white. Now it's matte green with white wheels.
I really like GTA V's Matte paint.

I'm endlessly fascinated by the fact the Crown Vic is a seriously "jalop" vehicle when it's utter shit.

Each time I see a vapid stainer I stop and kill the driver in an attempt to steal their money. Turns out they never have any.
GTA V is very realistic.

Name another big RWD V8 car that's comfortable and under $2000.

I'd rather have something with better MPG at that price. It's a barge but the romantic light it gets looked at is silly.

I have to agree, that Coil Voltic is ridiculously quick, and it's quiet like a proper electric car. I kept one in Michael's garage once I drove it... until the damn garage ate it whole (known garage bug).

Jalopnik = jalopy+beatnik
jalopy noun \j-lä-p\
: an old car that is in poor condition
: a dilapidated old vehicle (as an automobile)
beatnik noun \bt-nik\
: a young person who was part of a social group in the 1950s and early 1960s that rejected the traditional rules of society and encouraged people to express themselves
A Crown Vic is Jalop. A shiny, new luxury or sports car is probably not Jalop.

I know what jalopnik stands for, I've been visiting the site for awhile. The Crown Vic just isn't a good car, it has a big V8 that doesn't produce much power and is a boat to drive. There are plenty of cars that fit the silly "jalop" test but the Crown Vic is one of those grandma cars that gets love for being so old fashioned even though it was pretty bad.

I figured you probably knew what Jalopnik meant. And you're right, it isn't really a very good car. But that's why any desire for one is irrational. It's that irrational desire that gives it the Jalop quality.

Play the 2nd paparazzi mission as Franklin. You'll find it eventually.

I'm so bummed that I lost mine when I was switching characters and didn't park it in the garage
