Pros and Cons of the Vigilante(For People Wondering If It Is Worth It)
Pros -
High Top Speed
Instant Acceleration via the Boost(Can drift around and instantly get close to max speed in a matter of 1 or 2 seconds)
Looks Amazing(Subjective)
Sounds Amazing(Subjective)
Great Drifting
Holds 30 Missiles(Homing or not Homing)
Homing Missiles are better than the average ones(same as ruiner 2k)
Can go flying on hills and bumps with the boost
Has extreme ramming capabilities without losing much speed(Just a little worse than the insurgent)
Boost only has a 3 second recharge
Acts as a Psuedo Ramp Buggy(only works on small cars and basic cop cars)
Is basically a ramp buggy, insurgent, ruiner 2k, and rocket voltic in one vehicle, but is a jack of all trades and master of none

Neutrals -
Mediocre acceleration excluding the boost
Boost only recharges when completely flat(even a slight bump could prevent boost from spawning, but is rarely a massive deal)
mediocre handling

Cons -
Costs around 4.2 million fully upgraded
The Oppressor is more useful(but Vigilante is more fun and is cooler. Once again this is subjective)
Not bullet proof(although the back of the car is bullet proof)
Not Explosive proof
Car Flips over extremely easily(even with max speed turns and no boost being used)
Car gets stuck in impossible to get out of places
Car lands in water more than any other car
Requires an MOC to upgrade
Not many customization options

Overall, I'd rate this car as a B+. If it could take 1 more explosion and/or have bullet proof windshields, this would easily be the best non-military vehicle in the whole game(excluding the oppressor). Don't get this to grief because you won't get far vs anything like an insurgent, apc, oppressor, and some aircraft.

Under cons you might want to put it's pretty much KOS for most people, especially anyone doing MC/Ceo work.

I own it and it really is not wotrh it. The worst purchase I have made in GTA Online so far (I haven't bought yacht or golden plane/heli, so yeah). Pretty much what the OP said. It's not usefull against attackers. It's lame when you want to mess around and destroy others. Handling is very bad. Terrible clipping (for example when you enter your CEO garage) and subpar model quality.

That's debatable. If people hear missile locking then definitely, but i've been just ramming people and only died like 3 times in 10 sessions

Basically if you like how it looks and sounds, and don't already own a ruiner 2k/rocket voltic, it's a must buy. I'd have a hard time being encouraged to buy a car that is just recycled content(minus the model). Plus not all vehicles are meant to be death machines. Worst case scenario you're spending 4.2 million for a super high speed BATMOBILE with 30 homing rockets(for defensive purposes) and rocket boost. That is really not that bad, but again, it's only really worth it if you love batman/the batmobile or just like how it looks, otherwise, the oppressor is better every time.

windshield is bulletproof during heists

it is ok in my opinion.
pretty expensive, but improves fun during heists.
you can do funny thing in combo with other cars like insurgent or tampa like playing clay pigeon shootout.

vigi rams cars on the highway and the tampa / insurgent attemps to blow them up before they hit the ground again

It's nice but I wish they had made the batmobile from the Batman Begins movie, even if this one is more iconic.

Moc is best tank, no need for vig

Vigilante sucks it isn't worth your money.

Oh, I completely forgot about that...
They didn't bother adding physics to vigilante, so model doesn't break/deform and looks completely out of place.

I sold that thing after i remembered that i had the ruiner 2000, plus i needed money for that FH-1 Hunter. The batmobile is a waste of money, in a few weeks no one will care about it...hekc they dont even care about the hunter (or maybe they cant afford it since mod menus cant drop more than 2K at a time).

However, you CAN use it for CEO missions and it does rather well
