Thankfully, Rockstar finally recognized the players who just want to talk shop about car mods and released the GTA Online Summer Event. In order to join a car meet, all you have to do is become a member of the Los Santos Tuners.
Membership unlocks customized vehicle shows, races, special cars for sale, and a whole host of other goodies.
First, log onto GTA Online and check your inbox for an email from Mimi, who’ll have some info concerning a new group in Cypress Flats. Head over and look around for a graffitied shutter door with the sound of revving behind it. After a cutscene with Hao and Mimi, you’ll have the option to join the Los Santos Tuners for $50,000.
Membership has its perks—you can interact with the tattoo parlors, merchants, and race organizers. Best of all, you can join a griefer-free social space and show off your car.
Enter the Interaction Menu and choose Request Personal Vehicle to bring your car into the garage (if you didn’t drive it there in the first place). Then you can start chatting with other aficionados about how the Karin S95 is actually based on the real-life Toyota GT86
