Giver
Lamar Davis
Location
Lamar's phone invite or the Pause Menu job list; the team spawns in La Mesa, East Los Santos, and one of you is sent to a rooftop while the other waits in the bushes.

Lamar needs two customized lowriders from a Vagos car meet. You and a partner photograph the arriving cars, clear the lot, and drive two of them to Gerald’s apartment.

Before you start

Bring a long-range weapon for the rooftop and a carbine or similar rifle for the lot.

Play with a partner: one of you takes the roof, the other the ground.

Objectives

  1. Go to the ground vantage point.
  2. Go to the stairs.
  3. Go to the rooftop vantage point.
  4. Wait for your partner to get into position.
  5. Prepare to take photos of the arriving lowriders.
  6. Take a photo of all the arriving lowriders.
  7. Wait for Lamar to pick the lowriders.
  8. Steal a lowrider.
  9. Take the lowrider to Gerald’s apartment.
  10. Wait for your partner.

Point and Shoot walkthrough

Get into position

Lamar splits the team in two. One of you takes the stairs up the side of the building to the rooftop, the other stays low in the bushes by the lot. Wait for your partner before the car meet fills the lot, and stay out of sight until Lamar says so. The Vagos are relaxed at this point, so there is nothing to fight yet.

Photograph and pick the cars

Once both of you are set, the lowriders roll in and you use the phone camera to photograph each one as it arrives. Then wait on the roof while Lamar picks the two he wants. From the roof, a scoped rifle lets you spot the Vagos on the ground and thin them out before your partner moves.

Clear the lot

When the shooting starts, the rooftop player covers the lot while the ground player moves in. Use the crates and pallets for cover and work through the Vagos before going for a car. Avoid shooting the lowriders: damage lowers the cash you earn.

Drive to Gerald’s

Each of you takes one lowrider and drives it to Gerald’s apartment. Keep the speed controlled and avoid hits, since the cars are fragile and every dent costs you. Vagos chase you out of the area, so stay on open roads, take corners wide, and do not stop for them.

What fails this mission

Besides dying or being arrested, the mission ends if any of these happen:

  • the cover is blown
  • a lowrider is destroyed

After the mission

Gerald inspects the cars and the job ends with a cash and RP payout based on difficulty and time, plus Job Points. Lamar’s next job, Desperate Times Call For…, opens.
