The latest update has resulted in almost 200 cars removed from GTA Online and the in-game dealerships, placing some of them behind the game's paywall.
Last week, Rockstar announced what changes would be coming to GTA Online once the GTA Online San Andreas Mercenaries launched on June 13. In a blog post, the developer reveals: "Lesser-used vehicles will be removed from the in-game websites to streamline the browsing experience. These vehicles will be made available via events showrooms, The Lucky Wheel, and other places."
Understandably, GTA Online players aren't particularly pleased with this change. "The vast majority of these vehicles are not simply less-common or spawn-on-the-street vehicles," one Reddit user explains. "Some, like the Stirling GT, are among the most competitive vehicles in their specific classes, and in that particular case, the Stirling GT is still available for purchase - for GTA+ members only at the new Vinewood Car Club - a location where 10 vehicles will be shuffled around every week for test driving/purchasing."
The same Reddit user has also pointed out: "If it really was about 'streamlining' the experience, many have pointed out that they simply could have added a filter function to the in-game sites for particular classes or even an option to sort alphabetically," a sentiment echoed by many in the comments of this user's post.
