Bravura

Overview

The Bravura is a new car in the GTA series making its first and only appearence in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It is a 2 door, a very common sight in San Andreas. Its design resembles an early-90's Nissan Pulsar NX 2 door, albeit slightly longer, with a grille, and without flip-up headlights.

Performance

Acceleration is average due to an underpowered (likely 4-cylinder) engine being matched to a front-wheel drivetrain, but pulling a small curb weight. What is truly disappointing about this car, though, is the significant lack of speed that would be expected from the light frame. Handling is average, but the car exhibits understeer. Brakes tend on the weak side, but are effective due to the light chassis and inability to reach very high speeds.

Trivia

Bravura is the name of the police lieutenant in the game Max Payne, also created by Rockstar.
Max Payne's car on Max Payne 2 resembled the San Andreas Bravura, except Max's car was white.
