Over the years Rockstar has built Grand Theft Auto into a household name, and no entry in the franchise has done more on that front that GTA 5 along with its paired GTA Online release. For many players, the first thing that comes to mind when the franchise is mentioned might be the debate over violent video games or the notorious Hot Coffee mod, but one of the most important features of the franchise is right in the the title.

Sure, Grand Theft Auto Online lets players build up their own criminal empire and pull off epic heists, but building the ultimate car collection is still one of the most satisfying aspects of the game. Such has been the case with each entry in the franchise, but GTA Online has taken that to the next level with an ever expanding collection of sweet cars. From Formula 1 Racers to Jazz Age beauties to a car that is totally not the Batmobile, GTA Online players can build a garage that would make Jay Leno jealous.

Speed and style are only one side of the garage, though. Cruising around in a Los Santos version of a Lamborghini can be a blast, but sometimes players need something with a more militant edge. That's where GTA Online's Warstock comes in, and it's impressive collection of destructive vehicles is worthy of a Twisted Metal game. While some of GTA Online's Warstock vehicles, like the Terrorbyte or Kosatka, are required for certain missions and otherwise not important, others are must have for any criminal mastermind.

Best GTA Online Warstock Vehicle - HVY Nightshark

The HVY Nightshark is a beefy and tough SUV that was added in GTA Online's Gunrunning update which gives players versatility in their gameplay with decent speed and maneuverability as well as being able to take a beating. The windows aren't bulletproof, but it does come with a machine gun built into the front the driver can use. Alternatively, players can forego the machine and armor the windows for better defensive. While having to pick offense or defense is unfortunate, both versions still make for one of the toughest, useful vehicles in GTA Online at only $1,245,000.

Best GTA Online Warstock Vehicle - Akula

The Akula is arguably the most essential flying vehicle in the game as it allows players to hide from radar. This one feature alone makes traversal and mission work a breeze. Pair that with the fact it can dash across the map and carries a heavy arsenal to boot, and players can't go wrong with having one of these in their hangar. Ever since The Doomsday Heist released this has been a growing fan favorite. With a price tag of $3,704,500 players will have to save up a bit for a ticket to ride, but it's well-worth it.

Best GTA Online Warstock Vehicle - HVY Insurgent/Insurgent Pick-Up

Both the Insurgent and Insurgent Pick-Up are two of the toughest vehicles in GTA Online. Bona fide tanks, these monsters can take a full salvo from an Oppressor Mk II before blowing up, and they have solid speed and handling to make a getaway when needed.

The Pick-Up option is more versatile given its turret can be manned by second player, but either option is must have for any budding mob boss. At $897,750 and $1,795,000 respectively, its worth picking up both for situational variety.

Best GTA Online Warstock Vehicle - Oppressor Mk II

No vehicle has completely changed the game in the way the Oppressor Mk II has. Essentially a jet engine with a saddle and a stash of missiles, this flying successor to the original Oppressor motorcycle will change the way players do everything. With blinding and maneuverability both mission work becomes simple as can be. While it is susceptible to missile lock-on players can purchase the chaff upgrade to give them some added security, but at $3,890,250 players will need to shell out for this game-changer.

There are plenty of other worthy vehicles in Warstock too, from the Mobile Operations Center - whose cab can be detached into a powerful everyday vehicle - to the Stromberg, which can takedown the Oppressor Mk II, all the way to the Deluxo for the ultimate Back to the Future vibes. Whatever experience GTA Online players are wanting though, these vehicles are more than up to the task.
