NB: The Tailgater has been removed from the purchasable list of vehicles on June 13, 2023 - but it can still be stolen off the street.

The Tailgater is also one of the "wanted" vehicles that can be required for the Simeon's Export Requests freemode mission, giving you a reward of $8,250 when delivered to his garage.
