How to Initiate Simeon’s Export Requests in GTA Online?
Since Simeon’s message is almost always delayed, find a “suspicious-looking car”. You’ll know if it’s flashy and uncommon compared to what most NPCs are driving.
The downside: It’s not always reliable. So, feel free to explore and tend to other businesses (if you have one).
Upon entering the vehicle, you’ll receive two Wanted Level stars. Remember: You can only lose them naturally, so Lester’s and CEO’s abilities won’t be able to help.
After losing the heat, head to the nearest LS Customs. Repair (if necessary) and respray the auto (free of charge).
Head to the Terminal marked by the “S” icon. Deliver the car, and you’ll receive varying cash rewards and 500 RP. Repairs are also given refunds.
