Rockstar Games has just updated GTA Online with a fresh weekly event, and this time, players have the chance to win the Karin Futo GTX as the Podium Vehicle at the Diamond Casino & Resort.
Normally priced between $1,192,500 and $1,590,000, this classic drift-friendly sports car can now be claimed for free by spinning the Lucky Wheel—but only until June 16, 2025.
A Nostalgic Ride with Modern Power
The Karin Futo GTX is heavily inspired by the iconic Toyota Sprinter Trueno AE86 from the 1980s. It features:
- Pop-up-style headlights
- Hatchback roofline and flared side skirts
- Square tail lights and slanted hood
- Classic 4-cylinder engine with RWD layout
According to GTA performance expert Broughy1322, the car reaches a top speed of 112.50 mph (181.05 km/h) and can lap in approximately 1:10.020.
Why It’s Worth Spinning for This Week
- Excellent for drifting, especially with Drift Tuning Upgrades
- Eligible for Drift Race events, a profitable activity in 2025
- Visually nostalgic for JDM and car culture fans
- Lightweight and agile for urban chases and stunts
However, the Futo GTX is fragile in collisions, so players should avoid heavy impacts to maintain handling and wheel integrity.
