Six GTA VI cars, built for real and driven around Miami
Rockstar shared side-by-side shots of six in-game cars and the real versions built by West Coast Customs: the Grotti Cheetah, Pegassi Tempesta, Progen Emerus, Invetero Coquette, Albany Manana and an Albany Buccaneer turned lowrider. Wearing Leonida plates, they were reportedly driven through Miami in a convoy. The same shop built a real Bravado Banshee for GTA V back in 2013.

A poster with boxed pre-orders, at least in some shops
MediaMarkt and Saturn in Germany are showing a double-sided poster for boxed pre-orders: the cover art on one side, a 'Welcome to Vice City' visual on the other. Smyths Toys in the UK reportedly offers a similar A3 poster. Rockstar hasn't said whether every boxed copy includes one, and the box itself still holds a download code, not a disc.

Smarter cops at the pump? A fan theory
In one Launch Gallery image, officers walk up to Jason while he fills his tank. Redditors read it as police being more careful near the pumps, and wondered whether refuelling will be something you actually do. Rockstar released the gallery without captions, so this is fan interpretation, nothing more.
