new Progen Luiva supercar just hit GTA Online and it looks absolutely unhinged

Sooo Rockstar just dropped the Progen Luiva and I'm not gonna lie, this thing is wild. No roof, no windshield, no windows — apparently that's by design. Progen's whole pitch is fusing performance with weightlessness, which I guess means just... removing everything that makes a car a car?
What we know
- Class: Super
- Available now at Legendary Motorsport
- Also showing up in the Luxury Autos window display
- GTA+ members can grab it at The Vinewood Car Club showroom on Elysian Island
Look, I know some people are gonna complain about it not having a roof or windshield like that's a bug, but honestly? This is the most Rockstar car design philosophy ever — why add weight when you can just remove it entirely.
The real question is how this thing handles. Super class is already crowded with some heavy hitters, and if they're leaning into the whole "weightlessness" angle, this could either be an absolute rocket on the straights or a disaster in the corners. Probably both depending on who's driving.
Also kinda interesting that they're still pushing the Vinewood Car Club as a GTA+ perk. Feels like they're really trying to make that membership feel worth it ahead of... y'know... November.
Don't be alarmed by the absence of a roof, windshield, or windows — that's all part of Progen's creative vision.
Classic Rockstar copywriting lmao
Anyone picked one up yet? How's it feel compared to the other Supers?

Look, I'm all for the design philosophy, but the real question is the price tag vs. performance. If this thing costs north of $3M and can't consistently top the Itali RSX or Vigilante in races, that's a hard pass for anyone who actually cares about ROI on their garage.
Right now a full Cayo run nets you roughly $1.3-1.4M after Pavel's cut. MC businesses + nightclub passive income running in the background? You're looking at maybe 4-5 hours of grinding for a car that might get outperformed by something half the price. Super class is bloated with options that don't justify their cost.

Honestly the only thing that shouldn't alarm anyone is Rockstar finding new ways to vacuum money out of our Mazebank accounts before November hits.
Honestly the "no roof no windshield" thing is the least of my concerns — what I wanna know is how this translates to RP servers when they eventually get it. You think cops are gonna let you roll around in what's basically an open-air death trap doing 140 down Vice City's main strip?

They're absolutely inflating the economy pre-launch so everyone's broke when 6 drops. That said, for RP purposes this thing screams "trust fund kid who crashed his dad's track car and decided to make it a personality." Already know exactly who's gonna main this on launch.
The Progen brand showing up this late in Online's lifecycle is interesting on its own. They could've just reskinned an existing super, but they're building out lore — "creative vision," weightlessness philosophy, the whole deal. That's not just a throwaway car description.
My read: Progen's getting established now so the brand has weight when we see it in Leonida. Remember how Pegassi and Grotti felt familiar at launch in V because Online (well, IV) had already done the legwork? Same play. If Lucia or Jason ends up behind the wheel of a Progen in Trailer 3, this Luiva drop retroactively becomes a planting-the-flag moment.
Or I'm overthinking a windshieldless go-kart. Probably both.
pixelpark_pete's onto something with the brand seeding. Rockstar's always been deliberate about which manufacturers feel established versus which ones feel like newcomers — and Progen showing up with a whole design philosophy this late? That's not filler content.
What I keep thinking about is the mood of a car like this. You strip it down to nothing and suddenly the soundtrack matters more. Topless at 2AM down the Great Ocean Highway with Los Santos Underground Radio feeding you something moody — that's a completely different needle drop than sitting in a fully enclosed Itali GT with the windows up and FlyLo drowning out the engine.
The car is the vibe. No windshield means you hear everything. That's either freedom or a headache depending on your station presets.
