1. fill up your M4a1 and your rocket launchers and grenades to max and get a fast car (I use the infernus but I am sure a comet or Turismo will work)
2. Go to your manhattan home that Roman buys, if you go straight then turn right and keep going till you can't anymore there is a museum. Park the car next to the steps for a clean getaway.
3. Call dwayne and get some backup, they come in a car, use that car and drive to the top of the stairs at the museum and use the car as a shield.
4. Start shooting people, when the cops come kill all of them, knock 2 heli's out of the sky, and blow up a few feds
5. After about 5 minutes of shooting usually end up using 400 of the 570 rounds, you should have 6 stars.
6. Get the fuck out!
7. When they chase you drop grenades out of your car and blow them up. After 5 minutes of running (which should be easy if you have the infernus) go to your safehouse and save the game. You will have "One Man Army" achievement unlocked.

That is how I did it, and it was an accident

You get six stars right away.
Land the chopper and duck into the subway.
The won't follow you down on the tracks.
Run around on the tracks for 5 minutes.
Run back to your safe house in Manhattan.
Done.

Quick question - where can I find more places to take Michelle on a date (restaurants, bars, etc?) and where are the other clothes places? Are they locked until I progress further in the game, or do I have to find them by chance?

^Right after she gets in your car, go to the map screen; everything that shows up is where you can take her...a few restaurants, bowling, pool, darts, bar, club.
Don't know about clothes, but would love to...Niko's outfit (and what's available at the Russian store) are :ghey:.

Do Dwayne levels and don't kill the girl, you don't really have to and it takes away from chasing down the guy. Chase him with the motorcycle right behind you.

Don't know if this is mention, not looking back at 700 posts.
I just found that if you leave a car in front of your safehouse, with it the yellow box. It will always be there, as long as you park it there before shutting down.

Helicopters fit nicely in the space as well.
