Trivia & NotesEdit
- The paint dialogue states it's to "legalize your car", suggesting at one time in the games development you would have been required to repaint as well as change plates on a wanted vehicle.
- Vehicles can also be repaired in your garage for a price. In all three of the games DLC's your garage automatically repairs your car at no charge, however unlike the base game, the repair does not clean it.
- Entering a Body Shop automatically cleans your vehicle, this can be used as a quick way to get your car washed instead of using a car wash and sitting through the lengthy animation.
