In GTA Online, this week’s bonus is not popular among all players. The focus is on the Issi, a vehicle that is supposed to resemble the classic Mini Cooper.
What does this bonus week bring? Until June 4th, you will receive more rewards in GTA Online if you complete Issi Classic stunt races. Additionally, the vehicle is discounted, and you can also win the car at the Casino’s Lucky Wheel.

Bonus week under criticism – Mini Cooper poorly received
What is the problem? The vehicles in GTA Online are often spectacular and fast. The Issi is the complete opposite. It is a vintage car that is slow and hard to handle.
While in recent weeks players have received great sports cars, some of which are among the fastest cars in the game, this week offers exactly the opposite.
Moreover, the Issi is also the podium car at the Casino. If you spin the Lucky Wheel, you might win this car with a bit of luck. In recent weeks, there have been significantly better cars.
For example, Solidsauce84 stated on reddit: “I went to the wheel to spin and heard the voice of the casino lady saying: ‘There’s a new luxury vehicle…’. I laughed and simply said that it’s pretty ugly. I won the car. First round. It happens every time when I don’t care about the podium car.”
Why is this bonus week even happening? A clever reddit user discovered that this week was chosen for a very specific reason.
On June 2, 1969, the movie “The Italian Job” was released for the first time. This film features various scenes with Mini Coopers. Rockstar seems to want to honor this film and its release, which is why there is currently a discount on the Issi, which resembles the Mini Cooper.
So, if you’re also a fan of this film, you should take advantage of the discount and either purchase an Issi at a lower price or spin the Lucky Wheel. However, be careful not to take too many photos in the casino, as otherwise you could be severely punished.
