Thanks to the Seeker, my mind is now at rest; I understand(!) the Anabuki commericials.

And since everyone is explaining how they got a tank in GTA3: I never had one until I completed the game, at which point there's one free for the taking at the armory on the north tip of Staunton Island. One day I drove over, calmly got in, drove over to Portland, and gave it to the crane down at the docks. Now I have tanks whenever I want on two of the three islands. (Okay, there's a tank parked over on Shoreside too, from when I was experimenting with cheats and accidentally saved, but I'm not proud of it--so it sits blocking the tunnel entrance beneath the Cochrane Dam Bridge as a reminder.)

Now the FBI Car...that was a bitch to get. My strategy involved luring the combined Forces of Good to the Staunton Island parking garage through a cunning combination of snipery and grenades. I then lured an FBI car into the ground floor of the garage, at which point the AI gets all confused. I jumped out of my car and ran up to the second level, FBI agents in hot foot pursuit. Killed 'em all like the bad man that I am, ran down and jacked their car, whipped out and around the police barricades, down the alley to the Pay n' Spray, and that was that. Oh, and I quickly took it over to the Portland Docks crane to complete that miniquest; now I can have one whenever I want without hassle.

That's my GTA3 style, see: I don't live with hassle--I cause hassle.
