*Before even though you had the standard edition, it is was possible to get the bonus vehicles that come with the Special and Collectors edition of the game in [[Grand Theft Auto Online]]. Although there were restrictions in storing these vehicles in your [[garages]], you could only bring them out by calling your mechanic.This glitch has since been fixed in Patch 1.10.
