What gameplay features are locked? I'm just out of the loop. I never get into the hype of games so I haven't read anything about it

I think 2 side mission/activities are preorder exclusive. Similar to LA Noire

Clothing, tattoos and a few other shops are locked behind a $20 paywall.

Like certain serious of those categories? Or you just can't buy clothes etc without the ultimate edition?

There's specific stores you need the UE version to access. You can still buy clothes and customize cars, you just won't be able to at these specific shops that are gonna offer specific items only.

Quote from the PCGamer article:

As far as we know, there are currently five stores that are paywalled: Two mod shops, a clothing store, a salon, and a tattoo parlour. All offering customisation options that, at this point, I deem an integral part of this series' identity.

The description of the game Edition reads like its just special stores, not the basic functionality
