A red Admiral, San Andreas.

The Admiral is a 4-door sedan featured in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.

Renditions

GTA III era

In GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas and GTA Vice City Stories, the car resembles a 1980s Mercedes-Benz W123. In GTA San Andreas, it appears to have a little 90's "makeup". Surprisingly, it is front-wheel drive, which is the biggest difference from the original W123. The Admiral is the first car available in GTA Vice City.

GTA IV

In GTA IV, the Admiral retains its 4-door sedan form and is given a Dundreary brandname. its front resembles a Mercury Grand Marquis, the chassis could either be a Mercury Grand Marquis or a Lincoln Town Car (but with a more even roof), and the taillights share the design with those of a 1982–1986 Toyota Camry. It serves as the base chassis for the Stretch in GTA IV. The Admiral is easily found in Bohan or Dukes and is one of the faster and stronger sedans in the game and one of the cars featured in online play.

Indestructible Admiral

In GTA Vice City, during a Colonel Cortez mission named "Guardian Angel", Ricardo Diaz arrives at the deal location with his personal car and three bodyguards. If the player kills Diaz and his bodyguards, thus failing the mission, they can take the Admiral to a garage and keep it.

The virtually indestructible vehicle can be very useful in a missions such as "Death Row", or other challenging pursuits which require going into a hostile area. Although the Admiral is indestructible, there are a few weaknesses:

• The front window is breakable.
• The tires can blow and the car will catch fire and explode when it flips over, like all other cars.

If the player uses the car, it is recommended that they don't leave it anywhere, even if it's close to their position, the game will most likely make it disappear - unless it is stored in a garage.
