Many players do not know, but there are a few cars in the game which can't be bought, repaired and called at any time, but are still saved permanently. And among them there are cars of the kinds player can not ever buy.
So far, i discovered three cars of the kind:
- greenish Galena turned into a sport car. This one is from a side quest where V saves some gonk from being killed by Tygers, if memory serves. It's his car. The guy goes away with some nomads, and the car stays freely available. Thing is, it's one nimble, fast-accelerating and small car, quite nice to drive;
- at least two different "Sidewinder" cars with different paintjobs: one in Aldecaldo colors, another in Raffen colors. Those accelerate even better, on par with Caliburn (no joke!), have much more forgiving suspension (being nomad cars). Both are completely permanent.
The Aldecaldo Sidewinder - i took from some garage doing some side job in very southern region of the game's playable area, if memory serves; it's not the one available near Aldecaldo 1st camp. Did not try that one - perhaps that one's also permanent? Don't know.
I parked all three near V's appartment, outdoors (not in the garage), behind a barrier where no pedestrians ever walk - and those three cars persisted through dozens game launches and game loads. The 1st one is a bit damaged - with some small smoke coming outta couple spots - and this damaged state also persists.
Thing is, i suspect there are more cars of this "can't be bought / owned, but can be permanently saved" variety in the game. Perhaps a permanent truck? Permanent police cars (i heard there are a few)? Heck, maybe even an AV? =)
Please share if you know anything about any other cars of this sort. Thanks!
