Grand Theft Auto 5 players with a GTA+ subscription can now claim the Bravado Buffalo STX Pursuit, a brand-new vehicle for GTA Online. The freebie is up for grabs until early May 2026, while the vehicle itself can also be purchased by GTA 5 players without a subscription to its online service.
March 29 marked the third anniversary of Rockstar introducing GTA+, a paid subscription service that is exclusive to the Expanded and Enhanced Edition of GTA 5‘s online mode, available on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. At launch, the offering was relatively narrow in scope, including a monthly deposit of in-game cash and a rotating selection of perks: discounts, limited property access, cosmetics, free vehicles, payout boosts tied to specific activities, and the like. While the service expanded over the years, particularly in the run-up to its April 2024 price increase to $7.99 a month, it still consistently gives out free vehicles. The Bravado Buffalo STX Pursuit is the latest to join that ever-growing list.

Bravado Buffalo STX Pursuit Now Available to Claim in GTA Online
The police cruiser officially expanded the GTA Online vehicle pool on April 9, when it became available to all players for purchase. Meanwhile, GTA+ subscribers have been able to claim it free of charge since April 2. The offer remains available until May 2, Rockstar said. Players without a GTA+ subscription can buy the Bravado Buffalo STX Pursuit for GTA$5.37 million. Its trade price is GTA$4,027,500, equivalent to 75% of the full price.
The new vehicle can be bought or claimed by logging into the Warstock Cache & Carry website from the in-game phone. The Buffalo STX Pursuit is essentially a police-spec spin on the Buffalo STX, reworked as a four-door law-enforcement sedan rather than a standard road car. Official materials describe it as retaining much of the base model’s overall design while adding steel wheels, multiple light bars, and additional police equipment in the cabin. Those bells and whistles give the Buffalo STX Pursuit a more specialized look than the simple vehicle reskins that are frequently added to GTA Online.
The Bravado Buffalo STX Pursuit was introduced as part of Rockstar’s GTA Online Neighborhood Watch event, which is currently in its second week. The event also includes Bail Office bonuses, special outfits and several other limited-time incentives. As is often the case, Rockstar has partnered with Twitch streamers to promote its latest content drop, allowing players to earn in-game cash rewards and a unique cosmetic by watching participating streams for between two and eight hours, depending on the reward tier. The first three tiers offer cash rewards, while the fourth unlocks a Winter Highway Patrol Outfit.

With GTA 6 scheduled for release on November 19, the current version of GTA Online may be nearing the end of active development, or at least a further slowdown in content releases, after Rockstar had already reduced that output throughout the 2020s. Even so, the game is likely to remain active for years to come, having amassed millions of players over the years.
