LS Car Meet
Moodymann, Hao and many other known mechanics including Benny, appear in the underground meet along with a host of new characters where players can meet up safe from Free Mode dangers to show off their vehicles and interact.
Prize Ride Challenges
Every week, a prize vehicle will be on display on the back of a Slamtruck in the Car Meet. Varying challenges will be set for players to achieve in order to win the prize car for free. These challenges may take several days to complete.
Reputation
Earning Rep gets you an assortment of rewards to elevate your status in the scene — these include unlocking access to all sorts of fashionable gear, flashy new car customization options like new wheels and liveries, as well as Trade Prices on certain vehicles, access to new Race modes, and even the ability to hold your own private Car Meet.”
- — Rockstar Newswire
Similar to the Arena Points system, new reputation levels unlock trade prices on vehicles, exclusive clothing items from purchase from the Merch store, vehicle customizations (e.g. wheels and liveries) and gameplay features.
Private Takeover
Players can take over the arena for a private session for an additional $50,000 fee, once they have achieved Reputation Level 20.
Races
The Street Race Series delivers exactly what it says on the can: bruising competition on creative tracks built on the streets of some of Los Santos’ most scenic neighborhoods, complete with shortcuts that are as much about risk as they are reward. The Pursuit Series offers drivers a more open-ended experience, with checkpoints placed sparsely throughout the map to encourage creative routes — after all, you’ll be competing against your fellow racers, as well as having LSPD’s finest hot on your heels. Meanwhile, Sprint offers a point to point challenge in Freemode with up to three other drivers in a breakneck race from the LS Car Meet out to various locations like LSIA and back.”

Test Track
The Meet building is home to a vast indoor test track. Players can access the track as a shared space with other players or opt to have an instanced session to themselves. Players can access with their own Personal Vehicles or one of a rotating set of three Test cars parked near the entry. While inside, players are free to drive around and three race options are available from the interaction menu:
- Time Trial
Set a personal best time around the LS Car Meet Test Track (1 player - all other cars will turn to ghost-mode for non-contact)
- Head-to-Head
Challenge another player to a there-and-back drag race across the LS Car Meet Test Track space (2 players).
- Scramble
A randomized race around the LS Car Meet Test Track space where players compete to be the first to reach the target number of checkpoints (2-4 players)
Sprint
Race to an external checkpoint and back to the LS Car Meet in Free Mode (2-4 Players)
- Accessible from the Interaction Menu inside the Car Meet only.
Street Race Series
Accessible from the Corona, Pause Menu map, Jobs menu, or from the Race Organizer inside the LSCM, there are seven different lap Races for 2-8 players. These races include several allowable marked shortcuts, often providing a trickier section to navigate, allowing slower, more agile vehicles to catch higher powered vehicles. They are locked to vehicles added in this update.

Repair and Mod Business:
Players will occasionally be tasked with repairing and modifying customer cars to their requested specification. Players can then choose to deliver the modified car back to the customer themselves or send hired staff to do the delivery for them to earn rewards.
Exotic Exports
After completing a Contract, players can find a list of Exotic Exports vehicles on a chalkboard on the upper floor of the Auto Shop. Players must steal the cars listed.

A Tattoo Shop is also available inside the car meet. While no new tattoos have been added, the "Torso – Back" category has been split into the "Torso – Back" and the new "Torso – Back Full" categories; this was presumably done to avoid a bug where the last few tattoos in this category would not show up due to too many purchasable items.
