Car Jacker

Nice car. Shame about the lock. You're the car thief of Vice City: you walk up to a locked ride, try the door, and if it gives, you're gone. Great fit if you like sneaking, stealing and running.

The 60% lock-breaker

How you earn

  • No special commands. Walk up to a locked vehicle and try to get in. You have a 60% chance that the lock breaks and the vehicle becomes yours. Anyone can take an unlocked vehicle, but only a Car Jacker can try a locked one.
  • Sell what you steal. At a selling area, /vsell pays 50% of the shop price. The owner can sell a vehicle, and so can whoever got out of it last, so a stolen car turns straight into cash.
  • Take your pick. Any locked civilian vehicle is fair game. Police vehicles can never be stolen.

What can go wrong

  • Stars either way. A failed attempt earns you 1★, and a successful one costs 1★ too.
  • Everyone finds out. When a lock breaks, the owner is told, and so are the police, with the location.
  • A failed attempt locks you out. The owner gets a warning, and that vehicle is off-limits to you for 30 seconds.
  • One vehicle at a time. You can only have one vehicle out at once, so you can't stack stolen cars.
  • A car is not a shield. Police can't cuff you inside a vehicle, but at 4–5★ they can pull it over (everyone is thrown out and locked out for 8 seconds) or wreck it (2 hits with an iron sword, or 4 arrows), and wrecking it costs them no stars.

Pro tips

  • Check the street for blue glows before you try a lock. The police get your location the moment it works.
  • If a lock holds, try a different vehicle. The one that beat you is off-limits for 30 seconds.
  • Don't wreck what you can sell. Destroying someone else's vehicle adds 2★.
  • Lock your own vehicle with /lk when you get out. There are other Car Jackers out there.
