  • Custom colours and decals for exterior.

Weapons

Two new weapons are available. Unlike the vehicles and Benny's Original Motor Works, the weapons are also available in Grand Theft Auto V.

Image	Name	Description
	Machine Pistol	The TEC 9, which is a light submachine gun from the 3D universe games, now returns, renamed as the Machine Pistol.
	Machete	The Machete is a relatively powerful and fast melee weapon, returning from the 3D universe games.

Missions

Eight new missions available for Lamar Davis. Unlike regular contact missions, these form a vague storyline and will first be offered to the player in a set order (although they can still be played out of sequence by accepting invites from other players).

• Community Outreach - Each team takes a lowrider and tries to start a war between the Vagos and the Ballas.
• Slow and Low - Get some lowriders across the city to their buyers without getting spotted by the cops.
• It's a G Thing - Rescue Gerald from police custody before he's airlifted out of state.
• Funeral Party - Shoot up a Vagos funeral and steal their cocaine hidden in Hearses.
• Lowrider Envy - Sneak into a lowrider meet and destroy a specific vehicle, before stealing a second.
• Point and Shoot - Covertly observe a lowrider meet and photograph the lowriders as they arrive, before being told by Lamar which two to steal.
• Desperate Times Call For... - The team must load up into a Moonbeam Custom and eliminate various targets around Los Santos and Chumash.
• Peace Offering - The players must steal two Buccaneers, and take them back to Benny's. The Vagos attack the area, and the team must fend them off. 

Weapons

• 200 weapon pickups are scattered across Los Santos and Blaine County in Freemode.
• All previously released weapons that are not restricted by time-limited events will now be available for use in the Creator tool.
• Option to refill ammo using the Interaction Menu.
• Multiple luxury finishes have been added to multiple guns.

Adversary Modes

Three new Adversary Modes available:

• Keep the Pace - Race around courses littered with jumps and obstacles while staying above a minimum speed.
• Offense Defense - Teams are split into Runners and Protectors. Runners must be the first to get to the end of a route while Protectors must block and run opposing Runners off the road, while protecting their Runner from the other teams.
• Relay - A team Race in which players take turns, each completing a lap before tagging a teammate. Non-active drivers wait in the pen to be tagged, while active drivers complete a lap for their team.

Others

• The Scene Creator, which enables the player to create custom settings for capturing Rockstar Editor clips, is available.
• Dozens of new clothing, hair, tattoo and accessory options available.
• Option to purchase a 4th property (both apartment and garage).
• Three new character actions will be available via the Player Interaction Menu:

Trivia

• The official promotional artwork for this update is a reference to the artwork of Cesar Vialpando from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
• The Machete's appearance in this update may be a reference to the movie Machete, since Machete's gang owns several custom lowriders.
