The long-awaited Eager Beaver, a German car inspired by the Mercedes-Benz Type 124, is now available in GTA Online alongside a new week of events. In a nod to one of Luc Besson’s films, this week’s events include bonus rewards in taxi missions. Players can also participate in six drift races to complete the weekly challenge and unlock the Rockstar Games-themed racing helmet. Additionally, new promotions are available, and the vehicles showcased at the LS Auto Showroom are on sale with exclusive bodywork designs until next Thursday.
The Exciting Eager Beaver
The Eager Beaver, the latest addition to the Bottom Dollar Prime Update, is now purchasable in GTA Online from Southern San Andreas Super Autos for 1,790,000 GTA$. This German car can be equipped with drift tuning at the LS Auto Showroom customization workshop. Once the option is applied, the interior of the vehicle changes, new bodywork patterns can be selected, and its handling is optimized for drift racing.
Stats of the Eager Beaver:
– Price: 1,790,000 GTA$ (Free for GTA+ members this month)
– Available at: Southern San Andreas Super Autos
– Inspired by: Mercedes-Benz Type 124
Fun fact: In German, there is no word for “this engine is way too big for this hood.” They tried saying “zu groß” or “zu dick” to the engineers, but since there is also no translation for “like my [explicit phrase],” here we are. A large V8 engine in a tight space allows the Eager Beaver to reach 100 km/h before you can say, “Oh no, sorry, I think I just…”. But don’t worry, an early arrival is the only risk you’ll run. So remember, take your time. Drift tuning available at the LS Auto Showroom.
