 ===GTA IV===
-In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], the [[Albany]] Esperanto is very different to the earlier renditions. Rather than being a large two-door coupe, the new car is a mid-sized four-door sedan. Its styling inspiration appears to be a pastiche of common late-70s/early-80s American car styling rather than a clone of any one car. The front end is similar to a 1977 Impala (though the headlights and signal indicators sit more flush with the grille and front trim) or a 1982/1983 Chevy Malibu (also thought to resemble a 1982-'85 Chevy Celebrity); while the sides and bustle-back styling (a majority of the chassis) is based on the Lincoln Continental Mark VII, however, converted into a four door sedan;  and the taillights seem lifted from a 77-81 Pontiac Bonneville. The combined look seems to emulate an early Cadillac Seville as it is commonly mistaken for one.
