Easy Guide to Sell a Car in Grand Theft Auto 5 – Offline Story Mode

Summary

• GTA 5 boasts a wide range of cars, which can be purchased by players, both online and offline.

• Players can sell their cars as an alternative to get some extra cash.

• Not all cars can be sold. There might be some restrictions on selling certain cars in the game.

Money is the crowned head in Grand Theft Auto 5. Having some extra cash in your pocket is always beneficial, especially in GTA Online. Hence, if you’re running low on cash, selling your cars might be an option to add some funds to your in-game wallet.

Let’s take a look at all the guidelines and restrictions on selling cars, both online and offline, in GTA 5:

1. Where to sell cars in GTA 5 Story Mode? 

Players cannot sell cars in GTA 5 Story Mode. They can visit the Los Santos Customs to upgrade and repair their cars but not sell them. The Los Santos Customs are marked with a spray icon on the map.

There are other ways to earn money in Story Mode, however, selling cars isn’t one of them. You can sell your cars in GTA Online though.

2. Where to sell cars in GTA Online?

Players can sell their cars via Los Santos Customs in GTA Online. Here’s where they can find them:

• Los Santos International Airport
• La Mesa
• Grand Senora Desert
• Burton

To sell cars in GTA Online, follow the steps below:

1. First, choose the vehicle that you want to sell
2. Find the nearest Los Santos Customs, indicated by the spray icon on the map
3. Once you reach there, drive inside for the shop menu to open
4. Scroll down the shop menu and select the ‘Sell’ option
5. The shop menu will display the value at which the car will be sold
6. Confirm selling the car to add the money to your funds.

That’s all you have to do to sell your cars in GTA Online. Note that you can sell only one car every 48 hours in GTA Online.

3. Can you sell stolen cars in GTA 5?

Players can sell stolen cars in GTA Online via Los Santos Customs. Unfortunately, the same cannot be done in Story Mode as it does not support the feature to sell cars through Los Santos Customs.

The way to sell stolen cars in GTA Online is the same as selling your cars through Los Santos Customs.

4. Why can’t I sell cars in GTA 5?

GTA Online prohibits players from selling incredibly expensive cars. For instance, a player has to purchase an Itali RSX to sell it. Similarly, some cars can never be sold in Online. The principle is that, if the car costs a lot, it most likely cannot be sold.

There are exceptions to this rule. However, that depends on whether you’ve purchased a specific vehicle or stolen it from someone. In both former and latter cases, some cars can’t be sold due to their extreme value.

5. What are the most expensive vehicles that can be sold in GTA 5?

Here are the top 5 vehicles that can be sold in GTA Online:

I. RM-10 Bombushka

Purchase Price: $4,750,000

Sell Price: $3,562,500

II. Mammoth Tula
