You can change your personal car, right? I don't feel like having my Crown Vic as my personal car forever.

Yes, steal a better one, take it to LSC and add insurance and tracker provided it's not a Premium car i.e. over 50k (?) in value.

Yes, you can sell it or if you have a garage, just replace it with another one.
 
Does it ever happen online?

Sort of, but I don't think it's intentional on R*s part.
To explain, I've had instances where I've used Car 1, then called my mechanic to get Car 2 (which basically abandons Car 1), and then when I go to my garage Car 1 is gone (and cannot be located as the tracker icon is gone). But when that happens, all you need to do is call your mechanic and ask for Car 1 again, and he'll bring you the car almost instantly.
 
So last night I decided since I'm eligible for the 500k I'm going spend my 50k I earned from robbing stores and selling cars towards my personal car. So I then find myself an issy, then proceed to paint it pink and add the gtpl emblem, exhaust, bumpers, and tinted windows. When I was done I only had enough to track it, and guess what happened? I got sticky bombed as soon as I left lsc to go show off. I'm so mad.

I misread that as 'sticker bombed' at first. To be honest, sticky bombs would probably make a car look better than sticker bombs...

Isn't there temporary invincibility after leaving LSC?

Rule No. 1 of GTA V Online - Trust no-one. If you see someone, run.
I've had situations where I honk at people to see if they want to help me hold up a store, but unfortunately their way of saying 'no' comes in the form of high-speed lead in my face...
 
Speaking of which - my friend told me you could only have insurance for one car at a time, but I'm fairly certain I've bought insurance for multiple cars (though I haven't checked to make sure I still have it for all of them).
Does anyone know for sure if you can have multi-car insurance?
 
This is what happens when you give people the choice to either be an A**hat or actually be helpful. Most just take the A**hat route.

I'm getting really tired of people shooting my car because of the way it looks. I hate a lot of cars I see, but I don't take a freakin' 12 gauge to its rear end.

That's why you use a minigun. :sly:

This is why whenever im in a Room with any crew members are being shot i Sit Him Down with my Sniper. They scare away :P. Then ill give them a ride in my fully tuned Comet. And get to safety. I always get ready when i see a White Dot Incoming. When a Blue Dot Incoming im fine :).
 
My mechanic sucks. Called this dude like 5 times and he brought me nothing. He makes me wait a few minutes and than says he can't deliver for no apparent reason. Of course he has no problem collecting his check every week.

You have to be on or near a road
 
For those wanting to steal a motorcycle and put a tracker on it, you can't for bikes worth 10k or more. I tried to steal a Double T but it didn't work. And does anyone know how to take the body armor off?

Hold Select, Inventory, Body Armour, None.

Once I called him and requested for my Stinger GT. He spawned on the wrong side of the highway I was on, turned around and got drilled by a semi truck. Needless to say I was pissed.
