Interestingly, the police car in Las Venturas is unique, being based on a singular platform not used for any other vehicles in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. The police cars in [[Los Santos]] and [[San Fierro]] are based on the [[Premier]], a common civilian vehicle inspired by an early-mid 90's [[wp:Chevrolet Caprice|Chevrolet Caprice]], while the LVPD cruiser resembles a late 80's Caprice. The police station is accessible and contains three weapons inside: a [[Pump Action Shotgun|Shotgun]], [[Pistol]] and a [[Nightstick]], as well as a [[Body Armor]]. The police parking lot has two floors, with the bottom floor contains a glitch.
