Karin Futo

The Karin Futo is a Sports Car featured in Grand Theft Auto V and GTA Online.

This is one of the few vehicles eligible for the special Drift Tuning Modification at the LS Car Meet. It's important to note that applying this upgrade disables any other performance upgrades. So you should only apply this modification if you'd like to have it in Freemode, as during Drift Races your custom cars will have the same performance as stock cars.

This vehicle also appears in GTA 6 and Grand Theft Auto IV.

How to get the Futo in GTA 5 Story Mode:

In GTA V Story Mode, the Futo can only be found and stolen (see the spawn locations in the "Appearances" section below). It is not available for purchase.

How to get the Futo in GTA Online:

The Futo can be simply found and stolen on the street (see the spawn locations in the "Appearances" section below), or it can be purchased for a price of $9,000.

The Futo can be stored in any of your Properties/Garages as a Personal Vehicle. It can be customized at Los Santos Customs and LS Car Meet Mod Shop. You can also modify it in a Vehicle Workshop inside one of your owned properties.

Once acquired, you can request the delivery of the Futo from the Mechanic.

NB: Previously only stealable, the Futo was also made available for purchase in GTA Online on October 9, 2018. However, it has been removed from the purchasable list of vehicles on June 13, 2023 - but it can still be stolen off the street.

It can also arrive at the player's own Auto Shop Service, where you're tasked to modify a customer's car to their specification and deliver it back to them, or you can optionally purchase it directly.

Karin Futo in Real Life:

The design of the Karin Futo is based on a real life Toyota AE86 Levin.

Karin Futo Top Speed:

The actual top speed of the Futo in GTA V is 119.50 mph (192.32 km/h) when it's fully upgraded, as it's been accurately tested in-game by Broughy1322.

Can you sell the Futo in GTA Online?

Yes, it's possible to sell the Futo. If you purchased the vehicle, you can sell it for a resale price of $5,400 (60% of the original purchase), plus 50% of the value of your upgrades. Otherwise, if you stole the Futo from the street, you can sell it for $900.
