IS THE $5,000,000 BUFFALO STX PURSUIT A TOTAL SCAM? 🚔🚮

We waited four months for the Buffalo STX Pursuit, and according to the latest elite testing, it’s a “heaping pile of trash.” 🚨

How can a $5 million police cruiser be objectively WORSE than the standard version that costs a fraction of the price? We’ve uncovered a series of game-breaking bugs that Rockstar hasn’t fixed:

The Launch Bug: Equipping the “cool” push bars makes the car flip out over every tiny curb like it’s hitting a ramp. 🏎️💨

Paper-Thin Armor: Despite max upgrades, this car deforms and veers off-course after just a few collisions.

Missing Features: No armor plating? No bullet-resistant windows? The standard STX has them, but this “premium” pursuit version is a sitting duck for missiles. 💣

If you’re looking for the best cop car in Los Santos, the Canis Terminus Patrol is the only real choice. Don’t waste your hard-earned millions on a broken model. 👇

🔥 SEE THE FULL DISASTER REVIEW:

After four months of anticipation, the Buffalo STX Pursuit has finally hit the showrooms of Los Santos, but the reaction from the city’s most prominent automotive experts has been anything but positive. Leading combat analyst GhillieMaster has released a scathing review, labeling the $5 million law enforcement vehicle a “waste of money” riddled with technical bugs and inexcusable missing features.

The $5 Million Collision Bug The most immediate issue facing the STX Pursuit involves its primary cosmetic feature: the push bars. According to the report, equipping the larger push bar options—the very items that give the vehicle its distinct police silhouette—causes the car’s physics engine to malfunction.

“Anytime you go over a bump or a curb in this vehicle, it just flips out,” GhillieMaster noted. “It’s like you’re going over a ramp… it’s pretty much unusable to drive” [01:00]. This mechanical flaw effectively forces players to choose between the vehicle’s intended aesthetic and functional drivability.

Missing Defensive Meta: The Armor Plating Exclusion Perhaps the most confusing design choice by Rockstar Games is the total exclusion of Armor Plating and Bullet-Resistant Windows. While the standard Buffalo STX is a staple of the “Imani Tech” defensive meta, the Pursuit variant lacks the ability to tank explosives or protect the driver from small arms fire [02:10].

“Why do we pay over $5 million for this version… when the regular Buffalo STX is a fraction of the price and it has armor plating?” the report asks [02:14]. While the Pursuit variant does feature a Missile Lock-On Jammer, it remains a “sitting duck” for railguns and stray missiles that the original model would easily shrug off.

Durability and “Paper-Thin” Construction The STX Pursuit is also facing criticism for its lack of structural integrity. Despite max armor upgrades, the vehicle reportedly deforms significantly during minor collisions. Unlike most modern Los Santos vehicles, the Pursuit’s bodywork “mangles” so easily that it eventually impacts steering and handling—a rare and frustrating throwback to older vehicle models [01:36].

The Superior Alternative: Canis Terminus Patrol For Raiders looking for a functional law enforcement vehicle, the report suggests looking elsewhere. The Canis Terminus Patrol is cited as the superior choice, as Rockstar successfully ported over the armor plating and explosive resistance from its civilian model—a level of consistency that is glaringly absent in the Buffalo STX Pursuit [02:59].

The Verdict: A Budget Blunder While the STX Pursuit is technically faster than the original model, the speed increase is described as negligible and certainly not worth the massive price hike [03:47]. Until Rockstar addresses the collision physics and adds the missing defensive upgrades, the consensus among elite grinders is clear: Stick to the original Buffalo STX and keep your $5 million in the bank.
