Verpestung Insecta #91

Described as one of the few good things to come out of WWII, the Verpestung Insecta's limited top speed may put some consumers off this cheap and cheerful vehicle. But for Class D racers, the Insecta is a versatile motor whose handling allows it to compete with faster cars on short tarmac tracks full of sharp turns.

Verpestung Insecta is a Car item that can be acquired through Grand Theft Auto crimes. It can be sold to (but not purchased at) the Torn Docks.

Obtaining

The Verpestung Insecta is most commonly obtained through the "Steal a Parked Car" and "Hijack a Car" Grand Theft Auto crimes. It is obtained about .9% of the time (or roughly one time for every 111 successes) from "Steal a Parked Car" and about 5% of the time (or roughly one time for every 20 successes) from "Hijack a Car." [1]

It can also be received as a possible result from paying 75 job points to use the Mechanic Shop 5* special, "Junkyard Dog." [2]

The Verpestung Insecta cannot be found through city finds but can be traded between players.

Historical Notes

The Verpestung Insecta was previously known as the "Volkswagen Beetle," which is a real-life vehicle. It was updated to its current fictionalized brand on 30 July 2024 [3] due to trademark concerns. [4]
