Anyway, the downfall with this is that say you have armed your vehicle with a bomb and it is about to go off. What are you more than likely to do? Dive out. Now, GetVehiclePos only works when a player is IN the car, so say you dive out, it will explode where you was last in the vehicle. + There are other abusive things to it - For example, the ship. Players can car bomb people standing near the ship.
Hmm, that's true. In regards to the ship, we could just disable it near the ship -- like /nuke.

That would be very cool. However a very quiet 'ticking' noise would be cool (or some kind of beeping) at the car, so that there's a chance to detect the bomb. However, that chance would be tricky, ending up in many people hopping in and getting fucked.
Another idea would simply that the car is locked when armed, and when someone tries to get in it explodes a little underground -- meaning that the explosion looks pretty good, however the player wouldn't be dead, and the one who armed the bomb could go and finish them off. This would avoid people just setting cars with bombs everywhere to mass-kill, and also then the player would get the kill.
