Feltzer

The Feltzer is a car that is available for use in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto IV. In both games it is a two-door car with a high top speed, each based on different models of Mercedes-Benz two-door coupes.

In GTA San Andreas, the Feltzer is based on the real-life Mercedes-Benz R107 that was produced from 1971-1989, specifically the 380SL cabriolet. It can be used as a lowrider with the appropriate modifications. It has a good top speed, but its handling is rather unsatisfactory as its high speed and light weight act against it; also it has rather slow acceleration. It can be found in San Fierro and sometimes Las Venturas. It is also a target vehicle in the first Import/Export mission at the San Fierro docks.

GTA IV

In GTA IV, the Benefactor Feltzer is similar to a second generation Mercedes-Benz SLK, except the wheel arches are significantly wider, giving the car a wider appearance, more similar to the AMG SL. There are three versions of the Feltzer convertible in GTA IV, one with a folding hardtop, like the real life SL/SLK, one with a softtop, and one with the roof down. There is also a further "variation on variation" of the Feltzer, with some featuring a Benefactor-badgeless body and sport mesh grille, while others feature a standard three-bar grille with manufacturer badges.

Performance

The GTA IV rendition of the Feltzer is powered by a throaty 3.8L V8, paired to a 5 speed gearbox, launching the vehicle quickly and giving it an enjoyable top speed. The suspension is firm and responsive, keeping the Feltzer flat in the corners. Braking is good, and ABS is an available option, though not standard. The Feltzer is also good in high speed frontal crashes, thanks to it's luxury build; and will survive numerous frontal hits before failing to run or catching fire. Oddly though, the Feltzer will succumb to bullet hits rather easily. If the player takes a Feltzer with it's roof down to a car wash, the vehicle will be washed by hand.

A special Pink Feltzer is obtainable after the mission I'll Take Her..., in which you kidnap Gracie Ancelotti.
