The Cheetah's acceleration and speed are good compared to other sports cars in the game, and handling and braking are far superior to all others. Due to its low suspension, it hugs the road and is not prone to rolling over or spinning out of control when cornering at high speeds. Like with the real-life Testarossa, the Cheetah is a rear-wheel-drive car. However, GTA III's Cheetah has stiffer suspensions than those of the [[Banshee]], [[Stinger]], and [[Infernus]], making it incapable of handling bumps and curbs without compromising stability. The Cheetah has a top speed of 132 mph (213 km/h) in GTA San Andreas. | The Cheetah's acceleration and speed are good compared to other sports cars in the game, and handling and braking are far superior to all others.

In Grand Theft Auto V, the Cheetah has a somewhat slow acceleration compared to other supercars in the game: 4 seconds to 60 mph (97 km/h) - this is even slower than most of its real-life visual inspirations; the real-life Enzo can perform the same acceleration within 3.6 seconds. Braking power is also moderate, giving somewhat long braking distances. However, the Cheetah now sees an improved top speed from its GTA III Era renditions: 217 mph (350 km/h); this | ; GTA V | ||

Braking power is also moderate, giving somewhat long braking distances. However, the Cheetah now sees an improved top speed from its GTA III Era renditions: 217 mph (350 km/h); this only falls behind the [[Osiris]]' 230 mph (370 km/h), [[Entity XF]]'s 240 mph (386 km/h), and [[Adder]]'s 250 mph (403 km/h). Its traction is also very good. Being a mid-engined vehicle, the Cheetah does not break down very easily, as neither frontal collisions nor rear-end collisions will damage the engine in any way unless the engine has been exposed. | |||

[[File:Cheetah-GTAVC-wingmirror.jpg|thumb|right|141px|The Cheetah's four wing mirror configurations in GTA Vice City, including a "black strobe light" variant of the wing mirror-less Cheetah, which does not exist in other games.]] | |||
* The GTA Vice City and GTA San Andreas renditions feature variations of wing mirrors, either featuring two on both sides, one on the driver's side or none. Unusually, for some Cheetahs without rear mirrors in GTA Vice City, [[:Image:Cheetah-GTAVC-wingmirror.jpg|a blacked-out dashboard strobe light]] used by the VCPD Cheetah may be seen; this variety of side mirrors is also seen on the VCPD Cheetah. Despite sharing the same vehicle design as in GTA Vice City, the GTA Vice City Stories rendition is only available with two side mirrors. | |||
* When first entered in GTA San Andreas, it may play [[SF-UR]] as its default radio station. | |||
* In GTA Vice City Stories, which is set in 1984, the Cheetah was based from the first generation Ferrari Testarossa, which started selling in 1984. The first "red head" did not sell enough until late 1985. For the sake of having no irregularities about the comparison of the two cars, the developers of the game made the Cheetah scarce in the game by only spawning them in parking lots, in order to address this anachronism. | |||
* In GTA V, the Cheetah makes the same horn sound as the [[JB 700]] and Entity XF. | |||
** Its engine sound is shared with the [[Zentorno]], [[Vacca]], and [[Infernus]]. | |||
