Additionally, the auto shop offers discounted rates for vehicle customization.
However, as you are only allowed to acquire 1 auto shop in GTA Online, it’s important to choose wisely. If so, are there any criteria to consider?

How To Buy An Auto Shop In GTA Online
You must first visit Mimi at the LS Car Meet, then you can purchase the auto shop via the Maze Bank website.
Check out this post to learn more about buying the auto shop in GTA Online.
Which Auto Shop Location Is The Best?
While there are 5 auto shop options available, you can only choose one of them, thus selecting the auto shop location so that you can get the most out of it is important.
In GTA Online, there are 5 purchasable auto shops with different prices, as shown below:
Auto Shop Location | Price (*) |
Mission Row | $1,670,000 |
Strawberry | $1,705,000 |
Rancho | $1,750,000 |
Burton | $1,830,000 |
La Mesa | $1,920,000 |
(*): This is just the price of an auto shop, personal customization price is not included.
Since the lowest price for the auto shop is $1,670,000 and the highest price is $1,920,000, picking the auto shop in Mission Row is ideal for keeping your budget in mind.
Back in 2021, Rockstar Games gave away a free auto shop located in Strawberry to all players who linked their Social Club account with Amazon Prime Gaming.
This was a great opportunity to save up to $1,705,000 in your bank account. Unfortunately, this offer will no longer be available in 2024.
In case you missed this chance and your budget is not a problem, simply pick any auto shop location that you prefer, as they share the same function and customization price.
Ideally, it’s better to choose an auto shop located near your other properties for convenient travel.
In that case, the one in Burton is worth investing in, as it’s next to 2 clubhouses, nightclubs, and Benny’s Original Motor Works.
