If I had the chance to go get the Franken Stange, regardless of whether or not it's to keep it or to make sure I can get it again in a future date, I would. It would cost, but it pays over time in the joy. So, since time is running out..

 
Will the same apply for the Sanctus? I'd like to have one, but I only have 1.5 million. I'm not even sure when the vehicles are taken down; I remember seeing something around mid-November?
 
The Sanctus case to me is a little weird.

It's a Halloween vehicle, but released under the Bikers DLC. So I won't expect it to go. Also: R* would normally warn us of these vehicles if they were going to go.

Would it be a stupid idea to buy a Franken Stange and immediately sell it, just to have the ability to purchase another in the future when I have more money?

The Stangë is awesome. If you can afford to take the loss on selling it then I'd go for it. It's a great car

On another note, is the Sanctus worth the money? Ignore the fact it may be a good bike to drive is it 2 million good?

Also what's the full upgraded tornado rat rod like?

It's unique, for sure. Let's go through it in what nothing else can offer.

Red lights.
Unique exhaust flame.
Skeleton motif.
Is the "muscle car" to the choppers: burnouts, high acceleration, really bad handling.
Has the power to wheelie about 30-40 degrees up.
Badass seat.

But I don't think it's worth 2 million, way too inflated if you ask me. Go for the Avarus if nothing above suits your fancy. Moreover, I will still recommend it ONLY if you're not in a rush for cash. Poor people looking for a cheap cruiser style bike should aim for my favorite bike that is the Gargoyle.

Classy, but rusty.

Still okay with the rust?

Then you have a *BLEEP* tons of understeer for a car that has bad acceleration and top speed, even though it looks like it could do things like wheelie.

Least it still obeys the golden rule of Tornados, which is that you're not buying them to go fast, but look cool trying to do it.

I took the plunge on the Sanctus. 2.3 million fully upgraded..........

I love it!!! Not worth 2+ million, no way but, for the fun and exclusivity and although the in game adverts and other R* plugs make it look a bit of a gimmick once I put my own twist on it it is pretty bad ass looking.

The money isn't an issue, it was just the price that needed to be justified. Glad I got it, sad it's so expensive.

Do I feel like a fool for buying it? Yes
Do I look like a fool driving it? Yes
Do I have red eyeball headlight? Hell yes! :P

I've already got the gargoyle and it's fantastic.

I'm going to copy/paste this when I get the Shotaro. :lol:

Haha me too. I getting that as well.

Human target, the whole lobby will just turn on me and my light up bike and leathers combo.

Well, asshole players aren't a problem for me, since I'm always in Online Singleplayer (invite-only lobbies). :lol:
 
How am I supposed to sell them damn forged documents? No matter how many players are with me, it's always this one guy who comes in and blows me up with his hydra for literally no money. Could they have made me more defenseless? Driving a trash truck vs 5 lvl 999s? WHAT IS THIS!?

Tron update is now out. KANEDA!!

While forced, this new adversary mode is high octane and full of speed with the new bike. It's the real life version of that game you play on the CEO office TV.

And the bike... after weeks of SPD teasing it left and right, it's time you taste the breaking of the Motorcycles class.

Do you have to win the new adversary mode or simply participate to get the new bike and outfits?
Click to expand...

Participate. I lost by using the powerups.

But it's forced to 4 people only. But you should have no problem finding a room since it's on double money and RP.
 
For those who can't find the new biker suits, it's on Outfits: Deadline, from the cash register in any clothes shop.

200k each for a full set (helmet, top, bottom, boots, typical black gloves), from a choice of 8. At least it isn't what I predicted at 200k each piece. Also worth noting that I can't seem to find the pieces individually; probably means you have to buy one to find out if it will be in the wardrobe.

Little disappointed that the colors are pretty limited if you plan to ride it with the bike. Would be so ballin' if there's a Crew colored option.

EDIT:



The Shotaro is timed at 0:57.490.

Familiar?

It's only a 0.1 second quicker than the much cheaper Hakuchou Drag.

It's top speed is only at 124 MPH as long as you adjust weight. The Bati and gang still remain relevant due to top speed and general flexibility.

Broughy suggests that if you really want one of these 2 bikes, get the Hakuchou Drag, since the difference is really up to preference like the Osiris and T20 a year ago. And that it's faster in a straight. The Shotaro has a safety net in the form of it's amazing acceleration, but pays in the speed department.

Personal note: I really thought it would break it, but oh well.
