Michael Hunter Returns for GTA: V

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, or have simply not played either of the last two main GTA titles (IV and San Andreas), you will have heard Scottish composer Michael Hunter’s music, including the best track of Grand Theft Auto IV, “The Soviet Connection”. More »

Grand Theft Auto IV: Brucie’s Exotic Exports

After Roman’s “Logging On” mission, Brucie will email you the details of a car he wants boosted.

Simply check your emails at a TW@ internet cafe (or the laptop in your safehouse, if unlocked) and reply positively, the reason being that many have reported problems completing the mission after replying negatively, while others say they have, just stick with positive to be safe.

After replying, a GPS marker should appear on your radar. Simply head to the location and take posession of the vehicle, once it’s in your hands, drive back to Brucie’s lock-up.

There isn’t really that much resistance when stealing the cars, but make sure you have full health and armour before you start this, beginning with 100% health and 100% armour should be enough to get you through the 10 boosts.

Almost all of the vehicles are located on the first island so it’s not too far to drive. As you’d probably expect, the vehicles are valued based on the condition of the car upon delivery, however, there is a Pay’n'Spray near-by should you turn up with your car looking like Memphis Raines’ “Unicorn” in Gone in 60 Seconds and wish to maximise your profit, however considering that the state of the economy in this game is similar to III’s (you can’t really buy anything), I wouldn’t worry about it too much.

After delivering a car, check your emails again (there’s a TW@ not too far from Brucie’s garage) there should be a new one in there, however sometimes you  might have to wait a while, it seems to vary for some people.

Once you’ve done all 10, Brucie will pass your number onto his mate Stevie, unlocking Stevie’s Car Boosting (Text Message Cars). You will also be awarded with 2% game completion and :b: Order Fulfilled (10 :gs: ).

Grand Theft Auto IV: Stevie’s Text Message Cars

Welcome to what Grand Theft Auto is all about, boosting cars!

This side mission leads on from Brucie’s Exotic Exports, after which Brucie will pass your details onto Stevie, who will in turn open up the garage in Dukes and begin sending you text messages (actually, MMS, but who cares) detailing a specific vehicle he wants you to steal.

There are 30 vehicles you will need to deliver. If you are hitting these in a row (the most efficient way to do this, but you don’t have to), find and steal the vehicle and take it to the Dukes garage (marked in green on our map below).

Oonce you deliver the vehicle run back to your Dukes safehouse (not too far away, seems quicker running than stealing another car) and save your game to advance the time six hours, go back outside and by the time you get to a Taxi you should have received your next job.

Upon completion of Stevie’s contract, you will be awarded with :b: You Got The Message ( :gs: ) and 2% game completion.

You could of course attempt to work it out for yourself, but if you can’t be bothered with that, or are finding it too difficult to locate one of the vehicles, we have a handy map here for you to use.

We suggest saving this map so you can mark off vehicles as you go along. (Click to enlarge)

We also have a guide of prices, note that the more damage your vehicle takes, the less you’ll be paid upon delivery. The vehicles Stevie will ask you for are highlighted.
