* Once the player has added the Warthog to their garage for the first time, they can claim a Wheelspin as the AMG Transport Dynamics Manufacturer Bonus through the Car Collection screen. This can only be done once per profile.

* Once the Warthog has its Car Mastery tree completed (see below), it can be an effective vehicle for farming Skill Score, either during Cross Country Series or Dirt Racing Series events or in freeroam, as it can easily get to the maximum Skill Chain multiplier of x5.0 (x10.0 during Skill Songs).

* As of the March 28, 2023 update, the M12S Warthog has access to the Race Turbo with Anti-Lag upgrade, which eliminates all turbo lag and can be used in conjunction with Launch Control, which was also added in the same update.
** To use Launch Control, simply press the throttle and handbrake at the same time and then release the handbrake.

** Buying the Ariel Nomad, M12S Warthog CST, and AM Vulcan AMR from the Autoshow requires a total of 2,943,000 CR. However, it is possible to obtain all of the cars mentioned except the T100 through a Wheelspin or the Festival Playlist, which results in the player not spending any CR whatsoever.

** Another method involves the Gift Drop feature. If the player manages to get either the Vulcan, Warthog, or GRC Fiesta from a Gift Drop (found in any random barn on the map), they will be able to make completing this accolade easier as they will also not have to spend any CR in the process, although the chances of this happening are incredibly low for each car, let alone all of them.

=== Rally Adventure Expansion ===
* The "Did somebody order a Warthog?" challenge for Ramiro's Grit Reapers team, unlockable at Tier 5, requires getting 3 Air skills of any grade during any Grit Reapers event in the M12S Warthog. Grit Reaper events are marked in purple and involve mixed-surface nighttime racing under harsh weather conditions.
* The Warthog is also eligible for "Cráteres Secos Challenge", which requires the player to achieve a time of 3 minutes or less on the Cráteres Secos route in any Unlimited Offroad vehicle. Naturally, an upgraded Warthog will work for this challenge, whether the player does the time trial-based Horizon Rally or a regular Horizon Race against 11 Drivatars. Upgrading the Warthog to A 800 or higher will work, but the player will have to be careful of the Warthog's wide turning radius.
** As Cráteres Secos features several jumps, it is possible to complete "Did somebody order a Warthog?", "Cráteres Secos", and "Cráteres Secos Challenge" in one go. "Did somebody order a Warthog?" can be completed shortly after the first split gate.
** If the player chooses Horizon Rally, Ramiro will call out turns, bumps, hills, surface changes, and other hazards throughout the race. Bumps and hills are opportunities for Air skills.
