Buying Mount Chiliad Weed Farm and 4 other things to avoid in GTA Online this week (July 10 - July 17, 2025)

1) A Bravado muscle car

The Bravado Greenwood is a Muscle Car that can be equipped with an Imani Tech upgrade (either a Missile Lock-On Jammer or a Remote Control Unit) as well as Armor Plating (to provide some explosive resistance). It has a good top speed too, and costs $1,465,000 ($1,098,750 Trade Price) on Southern San Andreas Super Autos, which is alright considering its attributes.

However, players should avoid buying Greenwood this week as they have a chance to win it for free as the Diamond Casino Podium Vehicle.

2) A Progen's supercar

The Progen GP1 is a super car with an impressive top speed. It is also compatible with the Missile Lock-On Jammer (which can be equipped at a Celebrity Solutions Agency's vehicle workshop), and costs at $1,260,000 on Legendary Motorsport.

But once again, players should avoid spending money to aquire the GP1 this week, as they can get it for free as the LS Car Meet Prize Ride in this GTA Online weekly update. They are required to finish within the top five of an LS Car Meet Series race for four continuous days to win the vehicle.

3) Buying Mount Chiliad Weed Farm

The GTA Online Weed Farm can help in making a decent amount of money. Four properties of this business are located across Los Santos and Blaine County, out of which players can choose any one.

Having said that, the Mount Chiliad Weed Farm should be avoided since it is located in Paleto Bay. This puts it in an extreme corner of the map, which can result in lengthy travel times during missions. The current weekly update has discounted all Weed Farms by 30%, so now is a good time to get one of the better properties.

4) Buying an expensive MC Clubhouse

To buy a Weed Farm, players must first own an MC Clubhouse. Its properties are also spread across the map, and are relatively cheaper than business estates. However, most players use the Clubhouse very rarely as it doesn't generate much of an income.

So if you are looking to buy a Weed Farm, but don't have a Clubhouse yet, avoid going for the more expensive ones. The Great Chaparral Clubhouse, which is the cheapest, is a great option.

5) Buying Imponte Nightshade

The sleek design of GTA Online's Imponte Nightshade appears to be inspired by the 1970s Chevrolet Camaro. It looks good, but doesn't offer much in terms of utility. This Muscle Car isn't exactly fast, or compatible with any good upgrades.

Yes, at just $585,000 on Legendary Motorsport, Nightshade is pretty affordable. In fact, it has been made even cheaper this week, thanks to a 40% discount. Unfortunately, this vintage ride won't be of much use overall, and those on a tight budget can consider avoiding it.
