Hotknife

The Hotknife is a sports car appearing in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It is an extremely rare car to find, just like the Phoenix, another sports car. The Hotknife is a classic hot rod, with a supercharged V8. The car comes only in one paint scheme (purple with white accents, black roof; visit in Pay n Spray has no effect on the car). Hotknife also cannot be modified in any way.

Performance

The Hotknife handles well on-road and off-road. There's great acceleration to be had from the V8 up front, but its top speed is ultimately lower than the more aerodynamic sports cars found in the game. One important thing about this car is its poor endurance in crashes, probably because of the exposed front suspension and radiator.

Locations

Spawns in front of the Driving School in Doherty, San Fierro after getting all gold medals in driving school (the license plate reads "GOLD").
The only way it can regularly spawn in the streets is to activate either the "Clown Theme" cheat or the "Sports Car Traffic" cheat.

Trivia

In GTA San Andreas, the default radio station in the Hotknife is Playback FM.
