The Vapid Connection
Inside GTA's fiction the Vapid Retro Custom carries the Vapid badge. Rockstar's in-game manufacturers are parody brands of real-world marques — a way the series builds a recognisable car world without licensing real names — and the Vapid stable is where this vehicle sits.
What We Actually Know About It in GTA 6
Rockstar has not shown or named the Vapid Retro Custom for GTA 6. Given that it (or a close equivalent) has recurred across the series, it is reasonable to expect something like it to appear — but that is an expectation drawn from franchise history, not a confirmed fact.
