Vapid Dominator[s]: The Vehicles of GTAO

[@windowsxpdude]

no way ive just seen a whole documentary about a mustang knockoff in a videogame. hats off to you man.

[@xavierlafontaine121]

The first car I "purchased" back in 2013 was a black dominator with orange stripes. Thanks again to Simeon over at Premium Motorsports for hooking up a brotha

[@NeoUltraverse]

Make sure to call him sometime… *you owe him a favor…remember…?*

[@gtasanandreascluckinbell]

I "purchased" one in the old paleto bay dealer back in 2009, white and blue stripe, still runnin strong

[@LewzoThe2nd]

Is Simeon actually trustable though? I've heard plenty of rumours on the street that he's quite sketchy when it comes to selling cars.

[@keegangossett2896]

@@LewzoThe2ndhe’s actually a little bit better than SSASA and Legendary Motorsports atm considering their recent shortages of many vehicles. Simeon has a weekly rotation of these vehicles that the websites no longer sell and often sells them at discounted prices. Just don’t ask how he got them.

[@cheefukeefu]

@@LewzoThe2nd as a former on-call employee of Premium Deluxe Motorsports for about 5 years, I'll tell you right now there is some crazy stuff going on with that dealer. i might face trouble for saying how they acquire their stock most of the time, but let's just say what they do rhymes with the word sealing (not that i was doing any of that...). Simeon's financing offers were absolutely designed to screw you over too. nearly everyone was getting their vehicles repossessed, even the Rockford Hill types who you'd think could more than be able to afford a Karin. unless you can afford straight cash, it's might be best to avoid buying from there all together.

Vapid is said to make an electric SUV version of the Dominator.

[@DLGaming2002]

Possibly, but the EV revolution is slowly failing as of lately due to a very low demand and the fact that most Raidens nowadays cost more than double than they did years ago, so much that even Coil's acknowledged their overproduction of overpriced, poorly constructed smartphones on wheels. There's even an EV graveyard somewhere in China full of unsold EVs. So this Electric Dominator SUV may just be a concept car, and not go into production, there's also an Electric Caracara concept, but that idea ended up getting scrapped too. So who knows, maybe the real Dominator's got a couple more years ahead. Sure it wasn't cool that Bravado and Declasse ended production of their true muscle cars, but the former company was pretty reluctant to make the Buffalo EVX, and it's all because of this Karen from Sweden that claims our uncommon sports cars that are mainly driven once in a while are "producing a lot of pollution", when in fact, there's more Asteropes, Blistas, and many city cars that are everywhere and driven everyday.

My first car was a blue Dominator Asp. Guy at Beeker’s garage was gonna scrap it until i offered to take it off his hands. Fun project car.

[@descendingmisery]

Nice! I had an old beaten up Vigero. Unfortunately it was struck in a hit and run and I was incapable of repairing it in that moment of time because of financial issues. Oh the pain of scrapping it sucked.

[@gymusen]

After falling out of love with the Declasse Vigero a while back in 2015-2016, I started to appreciate the Vapid Dominator more.

[@firelion9929]

[@NOOSE2008]

If anyones wondering why the ASP didn't make it to Liberty city and Alderney in 2008 and would only make it in 2009, was was due to the name, ASP, also in alderney and LC meaning Alderney State Patrol/Police. So whenever someone mentioned ASP, not Including "Vapid" or "Dominator", most people would think of the ASP in Alderney, which the mayor didn't find funny, and would force Vapid to delay their shipments of ASP's till year later.

[@nicotinegaming2]

I love this series. It reminds me of "Max Speed" TV show I used to watch at CNT. Shame that Public Broadcasting Corporation fired Johnny "Jizz-ah" Clarke just because he slapped the producer over cold soup 😞

[@clockwork3494]

Got my Ellie model from some crazed junkyard owner in La Puerta looking to make a quick buck, something about a "kidnapped brother, owed money and export cars" or whatever, I won't complain since it was 30% off retail price compared to places like Simeon's. Took a little tinkering but it runs better than a Chiliad cable car and is _just_ fast enough to not let those pesky mountain lions open the door handles on my morning commute to the MB, although it's an absolute rust bucket and the hood is prone to unlatching mid-drive down the Interstate 4 at just 60 mph. It works for now though as an A - B car, that is until I can sell it to the next unlucky shmuck wanting a piece of the American dream long since past and buy myself a Futo GTX.

[@DanDaFreakinMan]

Hot damn. That's a deep cut right there. Been a whole decade since that cable car stopped operation. For shame honestly.

[@JETBLACKCORD]

love that the dominator from 2013 still is classed in top 5-top 10 in speed and track performance for a decade still have my first dominator to this day

Never stop doing these, especially once GTA VI comes out!

[@floydfanTN]

Ah yes the RCR Of San Andreas is back!

[@DLGaming2002]

Who's here after hearing about the Dominator FX? Maybe the Uranus was just a European import for the time.

[@sandalogaming6766]

Funnily enough, Vapid was so confident in their latest performance iteration of the Dominator GT, the “N-Horse” (don’t ask what the N stands for) they decided to take it into GT racing where Ubermacht, Grotti and Pfister have been ruling over with their V6’s, in-line 6’s and boxer 6’s for a 1000 years in the time frame of younger generations. Only time will tell if America’s most iconic sports car will do just as well in the endurance races of Europe as well as it does in the Hot ring. After all, Vapid has created an iconic beast out of a British chassi made in a shed (as all great British things are conceived) and an engine made by a chicken farmer that dethroned Grotti’s V12’s at LeCons not once or twice, but 4 times… in a row, all that as a marketing ploy to sell the original Dominator in the first place, and the Coquette’s always seem to hang on pretty well there. Godspeed to the Dominator out there…

[@DanDaFreakinMan]

I believe in them. Afterall Declasse just went and shred LeCons last year with a Hotring Vigero modified specifically for the regulations. And you know the saying, whatever Declasse has, Vapid must have, and vice versa.

[@Itz_Sonic57053]

[@ElDoggo141]

Bought my first Dominator, a 2008 model, back in late 2017. Sold it in 2019 after rolling it in a ditch up in Paleto, but now I'm the proud owner of a 1970 GTT and a 2023 GT. Fun lil cars and a ton of power.

[@WanganTunedKeiCar]

I appreciate the end. It saddens me seeing the quiet end of the run for the Camaro glorious, loud, screaming end of the Challenger. The Mustang soldiers on, but like the Subaru WRX without the Evo, where will it go from now? Wallowing in a desperate attempt to retain its former glory?

Another interesting thing about the Uranus was during the 2000's it was a Huge Favorite for Russians and European immigrants in Liberty city, due to the eastern look that would remind them of home while trying not to wreak it when drink driving due to the police being more strict.

It was black with flame decals running along the sides and hood of the car. I remember getting a Dominator in that game and did my best to match his. I even beat him with it while he was driving the Ubermacht Sentinel RTG that he stole from me. Good times.
