The Business Update is a content update for Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. It was released on March 4, 2014 as part of the 1.11 patch and features multiple business-themed items.
The new vehicles and weapons are available in both Story Mode and Online. In Story Mode, weapons are deposited into all three characters' inventory with two full ammo-clips and all three cars are accessible from their garage properties. In GTA Online, you're able to purchase the new weapons and their attachments at any Ammu-Nation location while the vehicles are available for purchase from Legendary Motorsport and Elitas.
Update Content
Vehicles
Four new vehicles are included in the update. Two cars returning from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Albany Alpha and the Dinka Jester. A new super car, the Grotti Turismo R, and a new airplane, the Buckingham Vestra.
Weapons
Two new weapons are introduced in the update. The Heavy Pistol and Special Carbine, both offering some
serious firepower.
Character customization
Dress for success with formal and business casual attire options like new suit jackets, slacks, glasses, heels and blouses, or don new all-business hairstyles and currency themed tattoos. There's also a collection of new masks, perfect for disguising yourself during the next hostile takeover.
Missions
Hard mode now gives 1.5x bonus GTA$ as well as RP, and normal now gives 1.25x of both.
Bug Fixes/New Additions
Along with the new vehicles, character customization, missions, and weapons, some bugs have been fixed. The bug that allowed you to duplicate your car and sell it, while still keeping the car, has been patched. Customized cars now sell for full price, instead of it having a cap of 10K. Various other minor glitches have been patched. Also, 5 new horns have been added to the game, named Classical Horn 1-5. Along with that, Green Tire Smoke and Purple Tire Smoke are now available. Both of these can be equipped on any car at any Los Santos Customs. A new option is available in races to turn Slipstreaming on/off.
