The Paragon R offers decent bulletproof capabilities when fully upgraded and will withstand multiple rockets before being destroyed, armor plating must be attached to gain this perk.

What we love about the Enus Paragon R

The Paragon R being a completely free car makes it a perfect starter vehicle for new and returning players looking to own an armored vehicle at minimal cost. The Paragon R has good acceleration and top speed for a sports car and is somewhat unique in that it gives players the ability to use in all sports class races and certain adversary modes (Sumo).

Enus Paragon R Is Good For

• All Sports class races. This will do the job until players can afford to buy a top of the pack HSW sports car (Itali GTO Stinger TT or La Coureuse)  .
• All Missions that involve being attacked by aggressive enemies as the armor will negate most damage done.
•  Getting around the map quickly, most sports cars tend to be fast in GTA V Online.

What is the Bravado Half-track

The Bravado Half-track is without a doubt one of the most unique looking armored vehicles in the entire game with its caterpillar tread (Tank treads) and mounted machine gun, one additional person is required to use the mounted gun while driving. The Half-track is very slow for a truck even when performance modifications are maxed out; fortunately, the Half-track makes up for this flaw with its amazing bulletproof capabilities.

What we love about the Bravado Half-track

The Bravado Half-track when fully upgraded with max armor-plating and vehicle armor (100%) offers some of the best defense in GTA V Online. The Half-tracks viability goes up a notch when players pair it with a second companion on the mounted machine gun, don’t worry the machine gun has bulletproof armor that blocks all frontal shots (non-explosive).

What makes this vehicle so good is its top-of-the-line defense when it comes to tanking homing missiles, a shocking total of 48 homing missiles before the Brickade 6x6 is destroyed.

What we love about the HVY Insurgent Pickup

One such feature is the ability to withstand 26 homing missiles and 8 RPGs before exploding. Another popular feature is the 0-60 takeoff it has when performance is maxed, so fast you can maneuver the city streets like a Monster Energy driver.

What we love about the HVY Nightshark 

The HVY Nightshark having such excellent acceleration makes it an ideal choice for defense while driving around Los Santos. Players will notice that during night hours the full beam (Headlight) will distract and sometimes block player vision allowing for some creative moments.

The Kuruma Armored can be used in all sports class races and since its overall performance is semi-decent makes it a good choice for new and veteran players alike looking to take a more slow approach while not being “dead in the water”.

What we love about the Karin Kuruma Armored

The Karin Kuruma Armored, when fully modified, is the best vehicle for blocking bullets due to there being no openings for bullets to enter, this turns players into a moving fortress that will never die from bullet shots. For new players that don't own any Imani Tech sports car, the Kuruma will be a sufficient replacement vehicle.

Karin Kuruma Armored is Good For

• All Missions in GTA V that allow the use of personal vehicles as there will be no non-explosive shots done by npcs that will kill players.
• Sports class Stunt races for new players as it is fast enough to keep up when HSW is disabled.
