Salvage Yard and Drop Zone Bonuses Land in GTA Online

Get some garage space ready, because a free Übermacht Cypher (Sports) is coming your way in GTA Online this week.


It has become really easy to lose sight of how rarely we’re actually Grand Thieving some Autos in GTA Online these days, but luckily this week’s bonus offerings are here to remind us. Rockstar is returning to the series’ roots with the headlining bonus, but as always there are plenty of exciting opportunities to choose from.

If you don’t have a Salvage Yard yet; first of all, why? It is a great way to make some cash, especially earlier on or for shorted gaming sessions! Secondly, you will need one to benefit from this week’s main bonus opportunity, which is nabbing a free custom Übermacht Cypher (Sports).

By completing The Gangbanger Robbery and springing King Tiny from the slammer using the tricked out getaway car, you get the option of keeping the ride for yourself once the mission is over. Other Salvage Yard Robbery Targets this week include the Pfister Neon (Sports) and the Albany Brigham (Muscle).

What’s all the buzz about?

Don't miss out! Master GTA Online with our massive guide collection!

Working your Salvage Yard is also the foremost way to make Career Progress this week. Stealing and selling prized rides this week will let you blast through 4 tiers of challenges, unlocking rewards ranging from the humble Red’s Cap to the much more imposing Gold Buzzard Attack Chopper. Talk about a quick escalation!

When it comes to earning extra for your endeavors, the Drop Zone Adversary Mode will be your go-to activity for the week, paying out a tidy 3x GTA$ and RP through the 22nd of May. Sticking to a similar theme of jumping from excessive heights and ideally not becoming a red smear on the ground, Junk Energy Skydives also pay out triple rewards – and 6x rewards for GTA+ subscribers.

Time for the mavericks among you to shine.

That’s a bit less than what we usually get out of these weekly bonuses, but luckily you can also earn a one-time payout of GTA$100,000 by earning 5 gold medals across said skydives. Skilled pilots also get their chance to shine as Air Races are paying out double GTA$ and RP this week, and 4x rewards for GTA+ members.

Vehicular offers these week include:

  • Premium Deluxe Motorsport Showroom
    • Enus Stafford (Sedan)
    • Lampadati Pigalle (Sports Classic)
    • Nagasaki Hot Rod Blazer (Off-Road)
    • Vapid Riata (Off-Road)
    • Dinka Double-T (Motorcycle)
  • Luxury Autos Showroom
    • Bravado Dorado (SUV)
    • Albany Cavalcade XL (SUV)
  • Hao’s Special Works
    • Grotti Brioso R/A (Compact)
  • LS Car Meet
    • Vapid Dominator ASP (Muscle)
    • Ocelot Lynx (Sports)
    • Dinka Jester (Sports)
    • Pegassi Vacca (Super)
  • The Diamond Casino & Resort

Standout discounts this week include Hangar Properties, Upgrades, and Modifications at 30% off, while the Hangar Staff Source Air Freight Cargo Fee has been slashed in half. You’ll also need to fill up that Hangar once you bought it, so a wide array of Buckingham helicopters, as well as the Jobuilt Velum 5-Seater (Plane), are 30% off.

Make the most of your booming Salvage Yard business, and don’t forget to check back next week to see what else Rockstar has in store for GTA Online bonuses!

Anyone here own a Karin Sultan? I am just wondering if it is worth logging on every day this week to try at the wheel. I am otherwise not really interested in this week's bonuses. Not much for me sadly.

Is this the first car we can actually keep from the salvage yard? Cause I have tried to keep them in the past and the option was never there for me.

Is this something they do once a month? Like you get to keep one car per month or something? I remember people complaining about not being able to keep the salvage cars as well. I know I wasn't able to before but I have not bothered with it for awhile now.

Well I havn't really payed enough attention to the Scrap Yard besides doing tow truck runs, so I don't i know if it's a monthly thing or more random.

The same lack of attention is also the reason that I got no chance of completeing the Career Progress Bonuses x.x

Feels like a mid week imo. Nothing really stands out to me. I already have the car so meh.
It is a VERY fun car to drive. I would recommend giving it a try.

Going to be working overtime this week so I am glad it isn't anything major in terms of updates for the week. I will be playing later today but likely won't be playing all week. I will be too dang tired.

The cars are decent if you don't have them. I am going to try for the podium prize. A friend of mine has the Sultan and I was driving it around last week actually wanting to buy one now so perfect timing. Not luck over the weekend but I will be trying the rest of the week.

Slow week but I will make due. I know we have a bit update coming for the summer. I am hoping it drops in June. I can't remember if they set a date or not. I need some bigger new content.
