On March 13, 2025, a fresh weekly update for GTA Online was launched, offering players an interesting array of discounts and promotional offers. During this limited-time period, players can access several items at a significantly reduced cost through various methods, rather than purchasing them directly at full price. However, some of the discounted items may not offer the best value for your in-game currency.
This article highlights five specific items to steer clear of in GTA Online from March 13 to March 19, 2025. Avoid these purchases to ensure your funds are better spent elsewhere.
What to Avoid in GTA Online This Week (March 13 – 19, 2025)
1) Western Powersurge
The Western Powersurge stands out as one of the fastest motorcycles in GTA Online, capable of reaching an impressive top speed of 130 mph when fully upgraded, as verified by gaming expert Broughy1322. Its design is sleek, likely inspired by the 2019 Harley-Davidson LiveWire, alongside its decent customization features.
Despite its allure, the Powersurge costs $1,605,000 at Legendary Motorsport. However, players can obtain this motorcycle for free by winning it as the Diamond Casino Podium Vehicle this week. Therefore, it’s wise to hold off on any purchases.
2) Buckingham Alpha-Z1
The Buckingham Alpha-Z1 is a visually appealing aircraft reminiscent of the Reberry 3M1C1R. Despite its good top speed of 201.5 mph, the plane lacks weaponization and only provides minimal explosive resistance against Homing Missiles and Explosive Rounds.
With a price tag of $2,121,350 or a trade price of $1,595,000—even with a 40% discount—investing in the Alpha-Z1 is not recommended. Opting for a sturdier, armed aircraft for a slightly higher price would yield much better results in gameplay.
3) Vysser Neo
The Vysser Neo exemplifies a sporty aesthetic, combining features reminiscent of the Spyker C8 Aileron and Maserati 3200 GT. Achieving a top speed of 125.25 mph with available customizations, its potential seems appealing.
However, for a hefty price of $1,875,000 at Legendary Motorsport, players should resist making this purchase this week. Notably, the Vysser Neo is tagged as one of the vehicles for the Salvage Yard Robbery, available for a mere $20,000 (or $10,000 for Document Forgery Office owners) after a successful heist.
4) Overflod Entity XXR
This supercar, inspired by models like Koenigsegg One:1 and Agera R, boasts a respectable top speed of 127.5 mph. However, it lacks significant enhancements and is priced at $2,305,000. Even during the current 30% off promotion in conjunction with the St. Patrick’s Day update, this car does not justify the expense.
Instead, consider vehicles like the Bravado Banshee GTS, which, for $1,989,500, offers a top speed reaching up to 138 mph with standard upgrades and 172.5 mph with HSW upgrades on enhanced consoles. The Banshee GTS also comes with the option to install a Missile Lock-On Jammer across all platforms.
5) Truffade Adder
The Truffade Adder remains a notable contender among the fastest cars in GTA Online, reaching speeds of 126.25 mph. While it features an attractive design that likely draws influence from the Bugatti Super Veyron and Saab Aero-X, it suffers from a lack of customization options.
At a price of $1,000,000, players should also refrain from purchasing the Adder this week, especially since it can be won as the LS Car Meet Prize Ride until March 19, 2025, at no cost. This presents an opportunity to maximize your in-game funds.
To summarize, players should be mindful of their spending and take advantage of the current promotions as they navigate through GTA Online this week.
