The Übermacht Cypher is a sports car added to Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the continuation of the Los Santos Tuners update, and due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Cypher appears to be based on the first generation BMW M2 (F87), with the headlights parallel to the second generation BMW 8 Series (G14/G15/G16) and the tail lights influenced by the 2021–2023 BMW M5 (F90). The side vents are similar to the ones found on the first generation Mercedes-AMG GT (C190/R190), while the rear bumper, the diffuser and the exhausts are taken from the Mercedes-AMG GT 4-Door Coupé (X290).
The design of the car is relatively simple and aerodynamic, where the front end features a trapezium-shaped intake on the centre that spans about half the car's width, smaller intakes beside the central one and a plastic-like bridge/splitter below. On the upper area, the car has a trapezium-shaped grille that is about the same width as the lower intake and features a silver/chrome surrounding, while the outer sections have black housings with modern, hexagon-shaped LED strips, as well as inner vertical high-beam lamps. The bonnet area has an elevated shape near the windscreen and the modern manufacturer logo on the front, while the bonnet compartment opens to reveal an engine bay with a black detail around.
On the sides, the car has small vents with dual silver/chrome horizontal elements on the front fenders, black horizontal door handles and carbon-fibre side skirts, as well as body lines passing around the front vents and on the sides, which become thinner on the rear fenders and almost reaching towards the tail lamps. The greenhouse area has black trim around the side windows and rounded mirror shells with black supports, as well as a single fin on the rear portion of the roof.
The rear of the car features a small boot lid with the badges and the number plate on the rear, as well as black housings with J-shaped red lamps and white lower strips, where the former splits between the outer main lamps and the inner brake lamps, while the latter splits between the outer turn indicators and the inner reverse lamps. On the bumper area, the car has thin exit vents on the outer sides and a carbon-fibre lower side, having diffuser blades on the centre and rounded openings on either side for the dual exit, dual exhaust tubes.
The interior of the car reuses the same textures and dials from the Jugular, which is essentially a derivative of the one found on cars like the Nero, the XA-21 and the Revolter, and the analog dials are also borrowed from the Raiden. The manufacturer emblem can be seen on the horn cap.
The primary colour of the car is applied on the bodywork, while the secondary one is applied on the mirror shells, the details of the engine cover and the brake calipers. A trim colour is also available for most of the interior, as well as a dial colour. It uses a set of rims similar to the "Synthetic Z" sport rims available in Los Santos Customs and other mod shops, though with a slightly larger inner lip and smaller inner circumference, wrapped in low-profile tyres. These rims can also support a dedicated colour, although only naturally-generated examples may have one.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Cypher is overall a decent sports car for street races. It has good acceleration and top speed, and it can navigate around turns without the risk of spinning out. The downside, however, is that the Cypher can bottom out when turning on bumpy roads or when driving through curbs, so extra care should be taken when navigating around them. That being said, it is still very grippy for a RWD vehicle and is rivaled by the Calico GTF in terms of handling, but it is far more controllable around tighter turns. Its overall durability, while somewhat strong, can be a hindrance when colliding at high speeds against traffic or other players in a race, which then results in the Cypher flinging around or rolling over if unlucky.
The vehicle features an engine model similar to the Rebla GTS, coupled to a 6-speed gearbox in a front engine, rear wheel drive layout. It shares the high-revving and loud sound from the Schlagen GT and the 8F Drafter.

- Can be purchased from Legendary Motorsport for $1,550,000 or for $1,162,500 after unlocking its trade price through gaining LS Car Meet Reputation.
Events[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- Could be won through completing the seventh Prize Ride Challenge, which required the player to win 5 Street Races during the Cypher Week event.
- Could be won through completing the sixteenth Prize Ride Challenge, which required the player to place Top 4 in any LS Car Meet Series Race (Street Race Series or Pursuit Race Series) for six days in a row, during the Heist Month (Week 1) event.
Radio Stations[]
- In Grand Theft Auto Online, the default radio stations are grouped by genre. The Cypher uses the "Pop" group which can play:
Trivia[]
- The Cypher emits a unique electrical beep when starting the engine in first-person.
- As with other Übermacht vehicles, the Cypher's name is a reference to The Matrix franchise, in this case being a reference to the character of the same name, who became a traitor to the protagonist group in said movie.
- Said character was portrayed by actor Joe Pantoliano, who voiced Luigi Goterelli in Grand Theft Auto III.
- The badge design of the Cypher is based on the ones from the BMW M Series. The same design is used on a badge on a Lucky Wheel advert for the SC1, another Übermacht vehicle.
- The "Team Xero" and "Redwood Stripes" liveries are a nod to the iconic stripes liveries that commonly used on the M Series.
- The former's design also takes inspiration from the Manhart MH2 GTR.
- The latter's design resembles the livery seen on the fictional BMW Vision Gran Turismo concept car.
- The "Speed Demon" livery is a reference to the iconic BMW M3 GTR (E46) from Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Need for Speed: Carbon.
- A similar version of this livery, named "Racing the Edge", is also seen on the previously released Obey 8F Drafter.
Oversights[]
- The Drift Tune version of this vehicle lacks the dynamic first-person drift camera that is present on other Drift Tune vehicles, which automatically angles the first-person POV to compensate for the drifting mechanics.
- The dial textures are incorrectly mapped; the speedometer is on the right and uses the tachometer needle, and the tachometer is on the left and uses the speedometer needle.
- The number plate light on the rear is attached to the chassis rather than to the boot lid, thus it will remain in place with the boot lid open/detached.
