The word "kuruma" means "automobile" in Japanese ([[:wp:ja:車|車]]), which may suggest that the car is of Japanese origin. | The word "kuruma" means "automobile" in Japanese ([[:wp:ja:車|車]]), which may suggest that the car is of Japanese origin. However, the car is loosely based on a [[wp:Dodge Intrepid|1998–2004 Dodge Intrepid]]; For GTA Liberty City Stories, the Kuruma has slight cosmetic changes to make it look like a generic Japanese sedan during the late 90's, the front appearing to resemble a [[WP:Honda Accord|1994–1997 Honda Accord]]. It comes with colored or uncolored (gray) bumpers and trims, giving it the appearance of an economy car . | ||
The Kuruma is the first car made available to the player in both GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, in the missions "[[Give Me Liberty]]" and "[[Home Sweet Home]]", respectively, probably due to the fact that it handles relatively neutrally. When originally introduced in GTA III, the car is not seen driven on the streets of [[Portland Island]], but is parked in various locations in the island; in GTA Liberty City Stories, the car is present in Portland traffic. | The Kuruma is the first car made available to the player in both GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, in the missions "[[Give Me Liberty]]" and "[[Home Sweet Home]]", respectively, probably due to the fact that it handles relatively neutrally.
