How does Sessanta's Exotic Export list work?

[Levianne]

Today I had a Benefactor Dubsta among others on the list, but for some reason it won't accept any Dubsta spawned on the streets, only that one specific on the blue dot. Is it a bug, or did R* actually made that on purpose?
Why I'm asking? Well if there's a Bullet, Ruiner, Phoenix, Infernus, Super Diamond, Comet, or basically any other street spawning car, the list accepts both variants, it takes them as one car and scratches its name regardless if a stock car spawned on the streets, or a customised one from the blue dot. So what's different with the Dubsta?

It's most probably a slightly different Dubsta often referred to as Dubsta 2

the blue dot is the one required tbh, its not the same with Simeon's list where you can find any specific car on the street and deliver them. also sessanta's cars can be heavily damaged but the payout is always the same (20k gta$) unlike Simeon, where damage reduce the payout.

I know all of this, yes, I took the blue dot one, because the regular stock from the street didn't work, didn't show the icon and stuff. I'm saying, that it does work with other cars though. Finding a blue dot Infernus, that is slightly modified, or finding a stock street one is basically the same, the icon will show for both, the delivery is the same and the list will scratch the name Infernus regardless of the version I deliver. I'm aware, that the blue dot has higher priority, but you can steal cars, that spawn on the streets in some cases as a substitute for those blue dots. You can't however do that with the Dubsta.

So how is this version different from the default (Dubsta 1)? I mean I know of the second version's existence, just don't know the difference between them. And if it plays any role in the wanted lists of Sessanta's and Simeon's Export cars.

Well in the files it's literally called dubsta2 while normal one is just dubsta. Thus stealing normal one doesn't trigger as exotic. Dubsta 2 has a bit different visual details, but obviously only file name matters.

I'm asking about those details. The car was obviously tuned, so it was visually different from the stock version, like a spare wheel on the engine cover, a heavy rack on the roof and some other stuff, perhaps different wheel type? But I'm not familiar with all the details, that are different on the Dubsta 2 from the stock version. Also it had a snorkel, I think that's also due to tuning and not the Dubsta 2 difference, right?

Dubsta 2 does not spawn naturally unless you or someone else is driving one (specifically dubsta 2) near couple possible spawn points near LSC. So what you found was regular dubsta.

Can we still call miss Baker and request a Dubsta?
I believe that one is Dubsta2 and driving it around LSC between 9am and 4pm would spawn another which can be either sold or if its on Sessanta's list exported.

heres a video about it

Yeah you can. Fun fact, if you have a friend who can call Agatha, he can actually change session and his dubsta 2 from her becomes deliverable to docks if it's on the list, further proving it's dubsta2 listed.

Had to check it on GTA Wiki myself eventually and yep, the one on Sessanta's Exotic Export list is actually Dubsta2. That answers my question. It is indeed a different car than the regular spawning stock Dubsta from the streets. Anyway thanks to you all, have a good day and cheers.

That's only one part of it; there are also cars on the map which aren't marked yet still qualify to be exported. I once stole a car for Simeon, 2 wanted stars and all and after I repainted it I suddenly noticed that it was wanted by both Simeon but also for the export list.

Though in the end it's best to avoid stealing those traffic non blue cars since it breaks spawns of those blue dotted, like you get dupe spawn and can't see it getting marked etc.

Got anything to back up that claim? Because I have quite the opposite experiences, whenever I recognize a car for Simeon I grab it and deliver yet this never interfered with exotic export for me. Spawns continue to happen.

As for dupe spawns: that's just the way GTA works, has been since IV :P

It's not Simeon's cars that interfere, it's cars that you take to exotics. All 10 cars are scripted to spawn in specific order each day and if you steal and deliver some trash car that fits from the street, it breaks that sequence, spawns dupes etc.
