Gotta get in game cash to buy those from the dealerships in the game. You get cash by doing missions and heists. Fastest way to get cash is spend cash for GTA shark cash card. You can buy it at Best Buy or target etc etc. just make sure you get the right platform. PC or Xbox or PS

Don't waste your money, you buy credit with real money ,which is just a way for a games developers to pray on parents through their children. No matter what car a person is driving, even an infinite quantity of credits wont substitute for in game experience. Just remind your child that these are things to be earned through playing the game

Yeap, the multiplayer component in this game is just a cash cow for them making quick buck by selling 'shark card' using real money to buy in-game money. With that, they dont even bother making GTA6 as long as they can milk this one to infinity by introduce MP only DLC.
You can grind those money but unless you have close friends to do heist its a gamble whether you get a good team or a crap one, usually more on latter.

Its a sign of good parenting to teach your son that this kind of purchase should not be made. Let him earn in game and when the grind is too long, stop playing into the rip-off business model.

This is a piece of advice you will long remember if you don't follow it up. Play into his urge and it will only get worse. Or let him buy it for himself with his own hard earned money, and you can watch from the sidelines as it completely derails. Speaking from (personal) experience here.

Beyond that: Shark Cards. Yup

I finally got around to getting it myself, during Steam's summer sale.

Don't know about Xbox but I don't think so. In PC you can put trainer and spawn MP only vehicle to SP campaign. But don't install for MP or you'll get banned. Rockstar loves banning people for no reason nowadays, I see a lot of complaining people get random ban for no reason.

Honestly GTA 5 online is probably the most toxic environment in gaming nowadays. Just a heads up.

What's the sense of buying something in video games when the aim of any game is to reach everything during the game? By completing missions, finding some stuff, etc. If you'll buy everything from the very beginning you'll lose lots of money and the game will lose any sense..
