The '''Hellenbach''' is a muscle car featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]]. It is notable for its use as the official gang car of the [[Algonquin Triads|Triads]]. | The '''Hellenbach''' is a muscle car featured in [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]].

The Hellenbach is a well performing, yet common vehicle. Available in a wide variety of colors, all models feature a hood scoop. From the looks of the body, its muscle car style, and the papercraft, the vehicle resembles a present-day Shelby Mustang GT500. | The Hellenbach is a well performing, yet common vehicle.

The [[Algonquin Triads|Triads]] use the vehicle as their official gang car during the events of Grand theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, with several modifications. The Triad variant features a light purple/lavender paintjob, with a white stripe running the length of the vehicle, as well as blue neon underglow visible only at night. Prominent silver bumpers and sideskirts are also added, which can be seen clearly when viewing the vehicle at the auto merchant in [[BOABO]]. Top speed is also increased slightly, apparently as a result of a nitrous oxide modification (this can be heard during initial acceleration, which creates sounds similar to those of [[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'s [[Sultan RS]]). This variant is frequently seen patrolling Triad territory in [[Algonquin]] and [[Broker]], containing one or two Triad gangsters armed with [[Micro SMG]]'s. The vehicle apparently replaces the Triad's custom [[Intruder]]s and [[Feroci]]s seen in Grand Theft Auto IV, which takes place during the year before Chinatown Wars. | The [[Algonquin Triads|Triads]] use the vehicle as their official gang car during the events of Grand theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, with several modifications.
