There are a lot of vehicles in GTA Online with distinct looks. Lowriders are one of the most favorite car types amongst them. They are a type of vehicle that was modified to stay as low and close to the ground as possible.
The concept of lowriders first appeared in the mid-to-late 1940s, in the city of Los Angeles, California, and remained quite subtle during the 1950s. It was in the 1990s that lowriders really became a dominant trend, associated with the West Coast hip-hop culture.
In this article, Gurugamer is going to showcase the top 8 best looking lowrider cars to buy in GTA Online 2022.

1. Voodoo Custom
- Price: $425,500
The Declasse Voodoo Custom is a Muscle Car featured in GTA Online, added to the game as part of the 1.30 Lowriders update.
It can be obtained by first buying the standard Declasse Voodoo for $5,500, and then converting it to this custom variant in Benny's Original Motor Works for an extra cost of $420,000.
The vehicle retains its original design from the standard model, retaining the front and rear fascias. Its underside is fitted with a paintable frame and has a visible driveshaft, a different, shorter exhaust setup (dual pipes instead of a single left pipe), and visible hydraulic bars connected to the suspension.
2. Slamvan Custom
- Price: $415,000
Introduced as a part of the Lowriders: Custome Classic update, the Slamvan is one of the heaviest contenders for the “best lowrider car in GTA 5” title. This two-door pick-up classic offers tons of liveries and available modifications for you to choose from. Its base height is already low, but it can go even lower with the custom. The vehicle now sits literally centimeters away from the road, giving it a mean look. After you are done tuning the ride, the Slamvan will have everyone’s jaws dropped to the ground!
3. Primo Custom
- Price: $490,000
The Albany Primo Custom is a Sedans Car featured in GTA Online, it is a variant of the standard Primo base model. The design of the Albany Primo Custom is based on a real life Late 80's Pontiac Bonneville.
Modified into a lowrider, its underside is fitted with a paintable frame and has a visible driveshaft, a different exhaust setup (dual pipes instead of a single Y-split pipe), and visible hydraulic bars connected to the suspension.
The Primo Custom is identical in all forms to the normal Primo, making the upgrade more suitable for those who want to own a lowrider sedan rather than for those seeking to maximize their sedan performance-wise. As a result of its low ride height, the Primo Custom can collide with curbs at high speeds.
4. Sabre Turbo Custom
- Price: $505,000
The design of the Declasse Sabre Turbo Custom is based on a real life Chevrolet Chevelle, Oldsmobile Cutlass. Modified into a lowrider, its underside is fitted with a paintable frame and has a visible driveshaft, a different exhaust setup (dual pipes instead of a single Y-split pipe), and visible hydraulic bars connected to the suspension.
Performance-wise, the Sabre Turbo Custom retains the performance traits from the standard Sabre Turbo, being a competitive choice for general races in comparison to other lowriders when fully upgraded.
5. Impaler
- Price: $331,835
The Impaler is one of Rockstar Games’ takes on the classic American Muscle. It seems to be based on the 1955-1957 Ford Thunderbird, while its name resembles the Chevrolet Impala. Therefore, we can consider the Impaler as a combination of the two most iconic muscle cars in American history. This GTA vehicle can be customized to bring the look of a lowrider. The Impaler is definitely the best lowrider in GTA 5 Online when it comes to performance. It has a decent top speed, great handling feel, and good durability.
Fun fact: the Impaler is one of eleven vehicles in the HD Universe to return from the 2D Universe, the others being the Z-Type, Tour Bus, Panto, Furore GT, Mamba, Penetrator, Itali GTB, Itali GTO, Locust, and Jugular.
6. Tornado Custom
- Price: $405,000
The design of the Declasse Tornado Custom is based on a real life Chevrolet Bel Air. Converted into a lowrider, its underside is fitted with a paintable frame and has a visible driveshaft, a different, shorter exhaust setup (dual pipes instead of a single Y-split pipe), and visible hydraulic bars connected to the suspension.
Performance-wise, the Tornado has received some improvements such as its handling and speed but otherwise remains a less-than-worthy competitor, though it has a somewhat reduced turning circle.
7. Buccaneer Custom
- Price: $419,000
The Buccaneer Custom is a lowrider variant of the Buccaneer, where it brings only minor changes by default. Its design is based on a real life Ford Fairlane, Buick Riviera.
Upon conversion, its underside is fitted with a paintable frame and has a visible driveshaft, a different exhaust setup (dual pipes instead of a single Y-split pipe), and visible hydraulic bars connected to the suspension, replacing the dragster-like suspension setup.
8. Virgo Classic Custom
- Price: $240,000
Last but not least, we would love to recommend the Dundreary Virgo Classic Custom to all the fans of lowrider in GTA Online. The Virgo isn’t a strange name to those who played Grand Theft Auto IV, and now it has made its way into the brand-new realm. The chrome-plated frame and tires give the ride a classic touch, while players sit just inches above the ground. The Virgo Classic Custom brings its own game to races, with a great performance and a sturdy bodywork that can withstand rain of bullets.
