Many fan-made videos show the cars whirring to life with their lights turning on and attempting to run down the player.
One of the dented Glendales also spawns in the Angel Pine Junkyard. The exact location where these cars spawn is in Back O' Beyond, just south of two horseshoe-shaped rocks. It is unknown if this is a glitch, or if game developers implemented this on purpose. This phenomenon can be witnessed at any time in the location in Back O' Beyond. Several of these beater Glendales spawn in the woods of Back O' Beyond. However, they spawn on the side of a steep hill, which makes them slide to the bottom of the hill as soon as they spawn, making it appear as if they are driving by themselves. These damaged cars are nicknamed 'beaters'.
Its damages cannot be repaired by visiting Pay 'n' Spray or by using cheats. In the game, there is a variant of the Glendale car, called glenshit in the game's internal files. This vehicle differs from the normal Glendale because all of its body panels, bumpers, and doors are dented.
