Rockstar Games' GTA 6 Car‑Theft Feature Possibly Leaked in GTA Online

A Reddit user who was customizing the Coquette D10 in GTA Online reported that the vehicle’s description includes text about a "Vehicle Identification Number" and its removal – a mechanic not present in GTA Online. The message reads, “The Vehicle Identification Number is a unique code used to identify individual vehicles. This has already been removed from the vehicle.”

Observers note that VIN handling was mentioned in 2022 GTA 6 leaks as part of a more realistic police and wanted‑system, where stolen cars could be marked “hot” until the VIN is altered. If the text is indeed a leftover from GTA 6 testing, it could mean the upcoming title will require players to remove a car’s VIN to avoid police detection, adding complexity to vehicle theft.

Rockstar Games has not confirmed the feature, and analysts advise treating the discovery as speculation, though it has generated significant discussion among the gaming community ahead of GTA 6’s marketing launch.
