Penumbra FF in Yellow GTA Online

The weekly update for GTA Online is here, with a new vehicle coming to the Lucky Wheel podium as always, plus new bonuses and rewards for specific missions and events.

Although GTA Online’s major summer update was a breath of fresh air, especially for long-time players, there’s still plenty more to come, as we build up to the launch of the next-gen consoles, where GTA Online will be prominent again.

Each Thursday, Rockstar switches things up with a new podium vehicle at the Casino, and this week, it’s the Penumbra FF. We’ve got the full patch notes early thanks to reliable leaker Tez2.

GTA Online Update September 3 patch notes

New Podium Vehicle: Penumbra FF

Penumbra FF in GTA Online
The Penumbra FF is based on the Mitsibushi Eclipse.

The Penumbra FF is far from the fanciest looking car in the game, but it’s dated exterior covers up a quick and nifty vehicle underneath.

It would normally set you back $1.38 million from Southern San Andreas Super Autos, and is modeled on the real-life Mitsubishi Eclipse, a street-racing classic.
