But since those cars can be pretty easy to miss, we will be providing you with the particular locations of the vehicles in the game, along with details on how to successfully follow the gold💞 requirements.

Where are the Gauntlet cars in GTA V

You should receive an email from a friend of Lester regarding some hints about the locations of all three cars. Clearly, you can’t just go stealing a random Gauntlet vehicle that you might spot driving around in the city, but you need to provide specific ones that will be used in the Heist. Once you bring them back to the garage, they will also need to be modified.

Finally, keep in mind that those cars have to be delivered without a scratch, so better be used to driving carefully! Let’s look at where to find them.

First Gauntlet car: Pillbox Hill

The first car you will find on the roof of a parking garage that is located in Pillbox Hill. If you want to find it quickly, it might also be a good idea to use the freeway as a waypoint. You can recognize the right garage since it’s the one located just to the right of it, with a couple of skyscrapers in the background as well. The car will be easy to find, as it will be the only vehicle parked on the roof.

Second Gauntlet car: Rockford Hills

The second Gauntlet car will be parked in a reserved spot in the Rockford Hills, opposite the Vangelico store and in front of the CaCa store. If you have been playing other Heist missions, you might remember this location for the Jewelry Heist. The Gauntlet will be free for the taking, so take it back toꦦ Los Santos Customs while driving carefully.

Third Gauntlet car: Mission Row

The final Gauntlet is also in a parking lot, this one located in Mission Row, on Sinner Street, a short road with nothing much on it. The car is parked in front🦂 of a laundromat and usually next to other ordinary cars, so it can be the hardest one to spot if you ar🌠e not specifically looking for it.

What are the Gold requirements for the Gauntlet cars

There are three requirements to bringꦦ back the Gold for all the Gauntlet cars. They are the following:

  • Mapped – awarded for bringing back the right Gauntlet cars
  • Not a Scratch – awarded for delivering the cars without any damage
  • Pimped Out – awarded for spending at least 17.000$ to modify the three cars

It might be useful to keep in mind that these requirements will apply to all three cars, so better be sure to deliver 🍨them unharmed and spend enough money on them.
