GTA Online’s latest update has made the Stirling GT completely bulletproof

Rockstar Games has randomly made the Stirling GT completely bulletproof in GTA Online's most recent update. It's not the first time something like this has happened, as evidenced by the regular Kuruma being bulletproof prior to The Contract DLC.

This change isn't entirely out of nowhere, since the Stirling GT did recently get some new customization features, including some HSW modifications. It is now the fastest car in the entire game, and this new bug only makes it an even more enticing purchase.

The Stirling GT is now completely bulletproof in GTA Online's The Criminal Enterprises update

The tweet above shows a technical look at what's recently changed with this Sports Classic car. In the left half of the image is the old hitbox, with the new one on the right. GTA Online players should note that the left model has some red textures around the window and car door area, meaning players can get shot through that space.

The right model lacks those areas, which is why the Stirling GT is now entirely bulletproof. Explosives can still destroy it (players can destroy it with a single explosive) but regular NPCs seldom possess such an arsenal.

The above video demonstrates how bullets cannot break the car's windows anymore. It's unknown when Rockstar Games will fix this issue, but as it stands, it's 100% bulletproof in GTA Online. Keep in mind that the Stirling GT is also the fastest car in the entire game, going up to an impressive top speed of 156.80 mph (252.34 km/h).

Both its speed and newly-bugged defensive capabilities are well worth the price of $975,000 for the car and $900,000 for the HSW upgrade. Even if this bug gets patched in the next major update, GTA Online players will still have a blazingly fast car at their disposal.

Note: Players don't need HSW upgrades for it to be bulletproof. A default Stirling GT will work just fine.

Buying the Stirling GT in GTA Online

Naturally, these attributes make this vehicle seem well worth buying (especially before it inevitably gets patched). Those who wish to purchase it can do the following:

1. Bring up your in-game phone.
2. Go to the Legendary Motorsports website.
3. Players will find the Stirling GT quickly under the "2 Door" section.
4. Pick any of the colors and then select the "Order" option.
5. Wait for the car to be delivered to the garage of your choice.

It will cost GTA Online players $975,000. If they want the amazing top speed associated with its HSW upgrades, they will have to fork over an additional $900,000 (although it isn't required, since the vehicle is impervious to bullets).

Rockstar Games hasn't commented on this being a feature or a bug, but players should most likely go with the latter and anticipate a patch.
