Also because it's a muscle car, it has the ability to "hop" over low obstacles that are still too high to drive over due to the handbrake launch on most muscle cars. I use it mostly to get on highways faster from the top of bridges and the like with railings preventing other vehicles from doing the same.
True! I love it
How do I do that on pc?
@@blackfyre3149 hold space and w then let go of space
@@blackfyre3149 Make sure ur car is fully upgraded and then Press n' Hold Spacebar (Default Hanbrake Key) + W (Default Accelarate Key) and let it revs until redline and then just let go the handbrake
@@ReALiVE24 thnx
Fun but, useless fact: The Kosatka can still lock onto agency cars even with jammers.
That seems like a bug lmao but that is indeed interesting
@@DetectiveDeuche Chaff also doesn’t work against the Kosatka homing missiles, but yeah since they are land vehicles and the kosatka is a sea vehicle, they will never be in combat with each other aside from the guided missiles
What's about the Terrorbyte Missiles? They also can shoot through Chaff
@@superturrican2181 The terrorbyte missiles are very clunky and sometimes dont even lock on correctly. I can count on one hand how many times I have been killed by a Terrorbyte missile lol. But yeah those work too.
@@GhillieMaster ok ty
The Imani tech should be capable of be applied to every civilian vehicle, price should stay the same but it's the most valuable thing you can buy for any car
No game wouldn't work and that mean there be more jet on loose.
@@a4thegamer760 explosive rounds take more skill than stupid mk2 missles
@@Luci_The_Radio_Femboy I think he mean't the Laser/Hydra's cannon.
@@Luci_The_Radio_Femboy u can do it with normal sniper rounds
Create a problem then sell the solution
I love how they’re bullet resistant but our characters can break them open with one elbow
Underrated comment 👏
i love this car so much, it can handle the mk2 noobs and has a good handling and acceleration (wich is odd in muscles) you can wheelie in it because a muscle does, its a feature that people ignore because it looks like a sports car
Looks like a sports car, probably because the generations behind it _Are_ sports cars.
@@Blurgamer17 It should have been in the sports class.
doesn’t really look very much like a sports car it weighs like 4000lbs and has like 700 horsepower stock
Does it hop as high as the Duke?
@@PoopScoopCoop thank u
Yeah this Buffalo was also one my first purchases and go to too. My particular favorite is yet to come the "Patriot Mil-Spec" that has been on my radar for GTA Online ever since the games release. Because that variant is legendary, it's been in GTA III, VC, SA, LCS, and VCS. And cannot wait to get my hands on that, and will be another one off my wish list of classic vehicles.
I am saving up for the Patriot Mil Spec and DAMN it’s expen
Lmao I’m grinding bogdan for that and that granger
I know it sounds like a hell of ride but I keep my expectations low around R*. They messed with the tuner cars now I’m not so sure what they’ll do to latest Patriot.
@@GhostyOfKyiv just grind the new contract missions, 20 contract missions and some payphone hits can get you the patriot easily
@@GhostyOfKyiv 1.8 mil isn't that bad.
Random part of the new update: With the ability to purchase customer vehicles from the auto shop, they sometimes spawn with rare and un-obtainable wheel colors, last night I bought a GP1 with turquoise wheels
I didn’t even think of the colored wheels the cars sometimes have. Good catch!
You can also buy a BF Club without the front like spoiler now
It has a money glitch u can upgrade a car for 20k and if its cheap u can sell it for profit lmao
@@user-cs3qh1uv5y link
@@infinitybomb53 idk what you mean but pyre realm gaming had a video about it
This car is just amazing. Last night I pissed off 2 mk2s with it, they kept getting sticky bombed over and over again. The missile jammer is probably the best thing that they ever added to this game.
its beautiful. Finally those c*nts get nerfed.
The missile jammer won’t work with the orbital cannon. Your pretty much doomed if someone hits you with it.
@@nh493 yeah no shit. But why should I care if a stinky cryhard kills me with the Orbital cannon?
That's great. I just love this car and sticky bombs versus a mk2 broomstick. It's so fun to troll those idiots. Lmao
Same its fun. Love to piss off these tumors
1:20 I found that test impressive, usually anything blows up instantly under hydra fire... also lmao, this thing is tankier than a tank
I think it’s a pretty balanced car actually. It has a good resistance to explosions, decent window protection, decent machine guns, pretty good acceleration and handles very well. Great job from Rockstar, this is the type of balance we want to see in GTAO.
Hey i know its been some time but maybe you could help me. Im looking at the southsanandres shop but i dont see the buffolo stx?
That beautiful SRT whine/engine sound is so much more realistic on the SXT compared to the Hellfire, love it🔥💯
@@BDA302 They didnt say it wasn't.
@@BDA302 he didn’t ask
Definitely an amazing car. Another Toreador class vehicle in terms of "Good"
Eh not quite as good as the toreador, but close for sure
@@deskfanman8310 i like it more just because of the anti missile lock
How in the hell is it equivalent to being in the class of toreador just for it to be deemed as "good" the damn car isn't even equivalent to being as labeled as that
The car is literally the same as the other Armour cars in the DLC
I swear your comment just sounds like as if you're just being a "suck up"
Before depressor griefers go saying this car is op, here's how to counter it: Lazer, Hydra, Savage Probably gets 2 shot by any tank cannon 1 Shot by AA Flak Cannon EMP Grenade then minigun the driver/Grenade launcher the car Fortunately all of the above have their own counters, so don't worry about your average Broomstick griefer, they'll just cry (or maybe get a jet and get shot down in nano seconds by an explosive sniper) :) Just git gud and stop flying the noob bike
most players don’t have explosive ammo i simply leave the match at that point
Im not an oppressor griefer and i think the remote control feature is broken.
If u think its op ur actually trash
@@mqk135 If you think its not then you are a tryhard.
Starling with bombs, spammable rockets and the strongest weapon: ramming a player with one of your wing, the plane will die, but wont explode. Unfortunately the handling will change and the plane counts as destroyed. After that if your enemy survived, ram them again with the planes body.
With the new armor plating and missile lock on disable this is now my daily driver.
I love how this new Buffalo is actually considered a *Muscle* car, whereas the Buffalo and Buffalo S are still considered _Sport_ cars. The Muscle car category needs some more love, imo. I'd love to see the GTA 4 Sabre added to the game, as well as a modern Sabre based on the 2000-2007 Chevy Monte Carlo.
Unfortunately, you're gonna need a PC for that.
We need a Foxbody Stang and a 90s Firebird
Beautiful video, can't wait to learn the stats on the new ones. Keep it up Ghillie
Thank you a lot, this video help my decide between the champion and the buffalo stx. Great videos man!
I made my Buffalo a sleeper with the stock wheels and no window tint :) really works well in RC mode
Same it’s so fun
The STX is also the fastest car (of the dlc cars) top speed wise excluding drip feed cars
Pariah has entered the chat.
@@nemesisfamily7109 he said of the dlc bruh literally nobody was talking about the pariah
Is the ignuss not faster
@@somebodys1929 for a supercar its not that bad, kinda feels like a vagner but slower max speed better handling
@@PoopScoopCoop to be fair to him I edited the comment to make more sense and he replied before the edit
What I like about this vehicle is the fact that it does very good wheelie and it has the best handling of the muscle cars.
Thank you so much for reviewing this, I was soo skeptical about buying it. Can't wait to see what you say about the Dewbauchee Champion!
Keep up the great videos, I love these little vids to watch and get a little info every time
This was a day 1 purchase for me as part of the new update, definitely worth every penny as it's a fantastic overall vehicle and was great using for the new Contract missions & Security jobs too, and I'm the sort of person to wait weeks/months for a sale on most vehicles I purchase!😮😅👍
I love it knowing that I can drive without worrying about missile and easy trigger noobs. As soon as the windows break I just repair it or call another one. It's very beautiful looking and handles very good, good contender against any good sports car I find around LS.
Wow, you gave the STX a Kuruma sort of look and it works really well!
I love it that much i bought two one is super clean with the lock on defence the other has all the armour and r/c tech for trolling and that supercharger whine is awesome in first person.
This car is amazing its a good performer it handles good its just amazing this is one of the best vehicles ever added!
I dodge and weave as sharp if ur sharp driver
I bought this almost immediately after thr dlc came out and it's the only car I drive now
Definitely my favorite too, bought it the first day and have been driving it ever since.
It’s definitely my favorite car in the dlc
Definitely learned something new just now thanks
I got sick of extremely long waiting times because of my poor internet connection, so I bought a 30M ethernet cable and ran it through my whole house. Best decision I've ever made as an online gamer who's room is FAR away from the router.
Loveeeee it!! Thanks for the guides
love ya work my dude!
This was the first thing I bought after the Agency, of corse, couldn't agree more tbh
Just bought it there and did it up I love it 😀 brilliant video also 👏
Hey Ghillie, I hope you read this, because Buffalo seems to also be able to go into godmode too. A tryhard was throwing stickies and I tried to orb him out, only the car survives the hit. I can’t tell whether or not the tryhard needs to be in the car to work or that it works like the speedo van.
There is a very easy god mode glitch with the RC personal vehicles at the moment which is probably what happened
I love the Buffalo STX and now I'm excited for the Patriot Mil-Spec.
Another change they made was that they put handling flags on the tuner cars, most of them don’t even double clutch anymore :(
Yeah, that really pissed me off
None of them double clutch, all of them were flagged sadly.
Definitely mad when I raced my GTT and found that out. Fuck Cockstar
@@YourJetsAreTrash Damn, I love my GTT... Too scared to drive it now.
@@fullbeans983 She's gone, man. She's gotta be put out to pasture...
Well thanks Ghillie. I was on the fence for the cars, like this one. But seeing how effective it is, I'm buying it. Hopefully the champion is good. Looks cool so I hope performance wise it's good to match the look
Champion is indeed good, its perfect to pair with remote control because of its agility. But for the bigger cars i rather reccomend anti lock
Just got one and love it!
I bought and fully upgraded the Champion and I'll keep it because it just looks so damn awesome, but I'll have to run a Cayo or two to get this too because the perks of this shooting a bit higher and not getting tossed to the moon when getting hit with missiles are both important. I'll have to compare the handling too because the Champion oversteers a lot, though it's easy to save it when it's drifting. Also I'd like to try shooting in first person with the Champion to see if it's still too low.
The tail lights look even better than the long lights on the real thing! Dodge should take notice! : Notification: 🔔
Lawsuit
@@R3vokenDallout1on They can sue, but they wouldn't win against Rockstar. In addition to Rockstar- they'd have to sue many other car brands that copied the Charger's styling as well. And good luck with that! 🚫 🚦
I’m so glad they make the hellcat charger actually good
Great video and love this car. Outta curiosity does the Imani Tech stuff make the car unraceable? Would love to make it race ready while also using it in freemode.
The counter everyone needed against the mk2
Hopefully they add a widebody version in the future, like when they will add the milspec patriot to replace the Squaddie.
Another good video. Your efforts are appreciated. Just a helpful tip: it is pronounced /TOR-ee-uh-dor/ -- 4 syllables, taken from the word/title for a bull-fighter
My fave car online. Made it a nice red too.
Such a good car - My new daily besides the Cullinan
This car is so fun I joined a chase someone was in He had a street vehicle and he was chased by 1 guy in an apc And i made it look so epic 😂 I used the slick mines and it was so funny when the guy in the apc couldn't turn bc of it
If you do a wheelie at the start it makes it the fastest car in the game
Do you have the link for the track you were racing on at the end of the video? Btw great review
This is one of my fav cars so far but I want the Mil-spec to be drip fed because i like military vehicles as well and an armored HMV would be cool to drive in
Todays the day chief
The Buffalo STX with the remote control is like the tv show “The car” from Netflix 😍😍
If only it could be done on the Ruiner 2000 so we'd have an even more accurate KITT.
I have a Widebody scatpack so this is my favorite car on the game. I made my car on the game the same color as mines.
Fun fact you can also valet the car at the casino usually you can't because of weaponized vehicles
Just bought one just now… fully upgraded. Stock is fast af
I had a feeling the mgs were a bit better than the pea shooters. Not as good as the sub cars, but it doesn't take too long to set a player vehicle with full armor on fire
Good video!
I like your video about the new dlc Buffalo stx
These vehicles really need options for armoured karuma style window armour, the bullet resistance is just not enough for the scores upon scores of enemy you have to fight through in missions. I would really like to drive some of the other armoured car to keep things fresh.
There's been a good glitch in the game for years now(not been patched of writing) when in cover spam heck out of R2 with grenade launcher instead of waiting for reload, it'll shoot like a machine gun and wiggle the camera around if need be lol! I've decommissioned some of these new whips on foot already!
I think we have a counter for the mk2 (put a missile jammer and Chase them with your car holding a c4)
It has the best acceleration if you get the wheelie right. Pretty much best wheelie in game for speed.
I just love this car, it looks soo good.
This may have been done already but I used the oil slick on pedestrians and I laughed my ass off. Just watching them fall.
damn, cant wait to get my hands on this
Love the Buffalo Stx
My friend told me that the pdw smg can break the window in 2 bullets, i havent been able to test it myself. But it might be something to keep in mind.
This is the new workhorse, I used this with much success in a business battle.
Ghille please make a video about the fact that you can’t go in the devin weston hangar anymore they killed the bogdan Heist there is now a solid wall blocking the hangar
Probably my favorite car from this update so far, I’d pick the jubilee but the armor plates on it are the wrong color. if you paint it white, the armor plates are grey, they look awful. hopefully it’s a glitch and they fix it soon
also, idk if anyone noticed how the jubilee sometimes has a tendency to understeer for no reason periodically.
You can always stick a livery over it
@@Hoshino_szr i don’t like any of the liveries unfortunately otherwise i’d do that
You don’t get the Jubilee for looks or for its handling. You get it because it’s the best machine gun car they’ve ever released. Get the remote control tech for it and have some risk free fun.
I already wanted this because Charger duh but its good as well very nice very cool
If all normal vehicles (except the super car class) could have imani tech and armour the Mk2 era would be over. Mk2 would be recognised as a not op not griefer grinder vehicle
Just survived my first encounter with a jackass on an oppressor. Definitely 10/10 when fully upgraded and armored.
I've seen entire lobbies of people rolling around being peaceful in these lately. It is so cool lol
Now with that faster engine and reinforced armor its pretty much a much slower version of a real police car but with mines and mg's
Looks amazing on f1s
as a charger owner in real life im just glad the facelift is finally in the game lol
Since this update I been seeing Buffalo so much in Online it might be best armor car for player 1.6m for this car is perfect vehicle. And have anti-homing missiles. Go car to use.
It's a good car but a lot more than 1.6 mil when you factor in imani tech, proxy mines, armor upgrade and guns. To that, many must add the price of the agency and agency vehicle workshop. If you're a newer player with out an agency you are looking at about 5 million to obtain and fully spec out this car.
I've got to decide whether I want the awesome musical horn or slick mines
Bought this carr first thing launch day is 🔥
I bought devbucce champion. Buffalo will be next for sure
I love it. It's like a nightshark only better because they can't lock on to it. It's fun to troll mk2s with and sticky bomb them.
Now we need a classic muscle version
As you know that you can see Franklin's buffalo inside your Agency garage, it parks in first floor
I love your content
Hey ghillie 😊 Do make a Depth Guide for the suv ?
Good stuff, waiting for the "imani contact off radar in depth guide"
That will be part of the Agency Perks video that I’ll be doing probably next week!
It’s shit, it goes away the moment you or one of your members attack somebody. That’s all there is to it. You get a set area of the map to hide yourself and your members in, but oh wait thermal vision exists, so you’re not exactly invisible to anyone with a brain. If you’re caught in a bad spot and want to get away from somebody you’re better off just heist warping to your apt or facility than activating this poor excuse of off radar Imo it should stay until you retire your club/organization OR it should last the duration of a mission and go away after said mission. If it was like that, it would’ve been perfect for Motorcycle clubs to place it during stand your grounds to counter all the toxic CEOs spamming ghost org back to back. That’s how I thought it would work at first glance. I thought you would have a fixed off radar area with no time limit, but was disappointed upon finding out that the ability goes away after killing another player
@@captainkirk800 yeah people will easily find with thermal, specially being area restricted, I agree, lasting the duration of a mission would be the way to go. i didn't get time to check things out yet, thanks for clarifying how it work
@@elementotriplo4966 idk if you’ve done this VIP work, but to put into perspective the 500m off radar area you get from Imani is maybe triple the size of an executive search circle if that, so it’s really not that big and I don’t think it’d be OP if it was infinite since you’re area restricted. (By infinite I mean not losing the ability when you kill somebody) that’s really the only massive drawback it has rn, it could’ve had the potential to actually be good and useful. I mean with how it is currently you might be able to pull off an initial sneak attack, but after that 1 kill you’re back on the radar and have a 10min cooldown or however the fuck long it is, I don’t remember
@@captainkirk800 To be fair, the moment you kill someone, you are no longer hiding. It works perfectly for what it is intended for. What you mean is it is a shit griefing tool.
2 small gripes with the car... The wheels are different sizes front to back (R* do this way too much) The rear lights are in the middle so it looks odd at night with its crossed eyes. Otherwise it's okay.
For handling you could always refer us to broughy 1322 - he's the God of performance testing both lap time and top speed. You'll be surprised just how much buffalo dominates the class and how awful it made muscle class for online racing with random in terms of meta
It’s also the second fastest top speed behind the P. dominator
the Dominator ASP was nerfed as well. So the gap between the ASP and the STX is now even bigger. Also matches the top speed of the Pisswasser Dominator. Don't know why it's in muscles and not sports
And the ASP can't do double clutch no mo :(
I was hoping it’d come with bull bar options for cop car lookalike.
Bro rc option is awsome lol
The paragon R can be entered while even in passive mode.. Strange because it has fire weapons... Though u can't use them if you r in passive.. 😆
Same thing with the jetpack…
Atleast they added a way for us to protect ourselves from the broomstick noobs 💯
This car is just amazing
I love when somebody tries to bully me with a car like this and I take out the SMG with FMJ Rounds 😂
Hey ghillie can you only apply the extra armour and the imami tech upgrades in the agency?
