The Intruder is a vehicle that is available in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and Grand Theft Auto IV. It is a mid-sized 4-door sedan, and is commonly found in San Fierro, and occasionally in Las Venturas and Los Santos.

In GTA IV, the Intruder bears the Karin brandname. After collecting all thirty cars for Stevie he agrees to purchase cars from Niko Bellic, with the Intruder fetching $2,500.

Design

In GTA:SA, the Intruder's design resembles a early 1990s Subaru Legacy with the taillights similar to those of a 1982–1986 Toyota Camry (and the area around the back wheels is also similar). In GTA IV, it resembles the 2002-2006 Infiniti Q45.

Performance

Acceleration and speed are highly lacking, despite the intimidating growl of its engine, likely at least a V6, judging by the size of the engine compartment. Being rear-drive helps, but the dismal torque is barely enough to climb a steep hill. Handling and braking are surprisingly agile, and seem wasted on the weak engine. The GTA IV version is much more powerful and sports a 4.3L (according to the AutoEroticar website) V8 with lots of torque, making it an excellent car for chases and quick getaways.

Variants

In GTA IV, there is a special variant model of the Intruder driven by the Triads. Badged as the Intruder VX, changes include a special candy red paint job, a body kit with side skirts and a chin spoiler, as well as a yellow Chinese knotting attached to the rear mirror that denotes the car's association with the Triads. The car commonly spawns in the City Hall, The Exchange, and Chinatown districts, where the Triad has a presense.
