Is there a secret "Fourth Island"?

There has been a lot of dispute about this.  Few claim to have seen the island, and those who claim to have say that it is only a "ghost island," with no people and no solid ground.  If it does exist, it is available only by plane, and does not become available after the completion of the entire game.

Is it possible to steal an FBI car?

It is possible to steal an FBI car, though it is quite difficult.  There are two kinds- roadblock cars, which are gray and don't have people in them, and black cars, which chase you and contain four heavily armored and highly trained agents.  It is much easier to steal the roadblock car.  You must first have five felony stars, which you can get by killing people (especially cops), or using the raise wanted level cheat (click here for cheats), which raises your wanted level by two stars each time.  If you want to steal a car, it is best to do so when you have five stars, so there are no tanks.  After getting in the car (which is easier said than done), it can be sprayed or the lower wanted level cheat  can be used.  It is easiest, however, to use the lower wanted level before stealing the car, so you are not pursued by police.  Another possible way, which is much easier, is to blow up and FBI car, get rid of your wanted level (any way), and then push the remains of the car to your hideout.  When you reopen the garage, it should be repaired.

How do I get some of my health back?

There are several ways to get health back.  At hospitals, there are hearts that, when obtained, will bring your health to 100 (you don't want to get them with health higher than 100, it will lower your health).  Ambulances, found at hospitals and wandering the streets, provide 20 health after you step our of them.  There are also hookers, located throughout the game but most common in the less classy, poor parts of Liberty City, like in Portland's Red Light District.  Stop next to one of these women in a car not belonging to law enforcement officials, preferably one that looks decent, and wait for her to enter.  Then drive to a secluded area, and wait for the prostitute to work her magic.  Your health will be raised, but at a price.  You can easily kill her when she gets out of the car to get your money back.

How do I get a bulletproof car?

There are several bulletproof cars, which will not explode but will be damaged in crashes and can be turned over.  When you compete in Turismo races, the cars you race are bulletproof.  You can block the road with tanks or simply wait for a cheetah (the car you race) to turn over or stop.  Without letting it out of your site, you can take it to your hideout.  Because you can't get in, the only thing to do is push it.  Once inside the garage, the car will be repaired, driveable, and bulletproof.  After completing the Marked Man mission, you will be rewarded with a bulletproof Patriot.  The limo in Salvatore Called a Meeting is bulletproof, and you can take it after beating the mission.  In the Van Heist mission, once you get the Securicar (which is bulletproof), you can take it to your hideout rather than completing the mission.  If you hope to save, you have to lose the mission first.  In the Evidence Dash mission, you can flip over the Bobcat by hitting it, and can have it after taking it to your garage.  In the Arms Shortage mission, the Barracks OL is bulletproof, but not at other times.  You can take it to your garage.  Please e-mail if any of these do not work or to submit information about additional bulletproof cars.
