Cars and other vehicles play a significant role in Grand Theft Auto V. The map is so vast that it is almost impossible to walk from one location to another without spending hours and hours in real time.
In order to ease you, Rockstar Games have provided players with a large arsenal of vehicles which can either be purchased or high-jacked at any given time. Furthermore, there are some vehicles which are automatically assigned to your characters.
However, along with the vehicles which can be randomly accessed by wandering through the city; there are some other ones which can be found either completing certain challenges, via websites, or by looking for them in some specific locations.
This guide will help you out in finding all these secret vehicles which can be driven in GTA 5. For more help on GTA 5, read our Collectibles, Aerial Challenges and Hidden Packages Locations guide.
GTA 5 Secret and Rare Vehicles Locations
Some vehicles that are common in the map have some colors that are not easily found. These are therefore rare and a lot sought after. Whilst there are other vehicles that cannot be found on the streets or even at cars shops, these can only be found in secret car spawn locations that are hidden from the players.
Finding these cars have become a part of the game that a lot of players pursue in their free-time and some make it their goal to collect all the cars that the game has to offer. There are also some vehicles that need certain criteria or side missions to be completed to obtain them. These cars only spawn when you have fulfilled their criteria.
Space Docker

GTA V Online Spawn Locations
The variety of spawn vehicles in GTA online is not as ample as that available in the GTA single player game mode. This is because there is a lot of tussle between the players to obtain these spawned vehicles which results in weak players standing off without them.
Anyways, the following are some of the vehicles that are known to spawn at the locations described along them.
Obey Taligator
This is a rare vehicle that will appear in the parking lot of the Golf Course. It will only appear after you receive a text from Simone telling you to get the car from there.

And when the mercenaries arrive, you can kill them and steal the car from them. To keep it out of their sight, it is advisable that you get the car to a custom shop and get it over-hauled.\
Declasse Asea
This is a very rare and wanted car. In order to obtain this, you need to play with a new character and when you have to choose the car for racing in the tutorial, you should choose the Declasse and then keep it after the race only to get it customized to keep for your own.
Bravado FIB Buffalo
