The '''Police Buffalo''' (named ingame as a '''Police Cruiser''') is an [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] [[Police Car]], only available in the multiplayer of [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]. This vehicle shares the same in-game name as the regular [[Police Cruiser]] (made by [[Vapid]]) which appears in all of [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], but is a separate vehicle.

The vehicle is a branded [[Bravado]] [[Buffalo]], similar to the [[wp:Dodge Charger (LX)#Police Package Version|Dodge Charger Police Package]] used by the [[wp:NYPD|New York Police Department]]. The front end is derived from the [[wp:Ford Mustang (fifth generation)|2005-2009 Ford Mustang]].


=== Performance ===
The Buffalo is best described as "above average". It will out-accelerate any other standard-issue police vehicle in the game, save for of course the [[Police Stinger]], which is obviously either a D.A.R.E. car or some other community-oriented policing strategy. Its top speed, engine, and weight all appear to be taken from its unmarked sister, the [[FIB Buffalo]].


 
Handling-wise, the Police Buffalo is well-balanced, and sticks to the road a bit better than the apparently aging [[Vapid]] platform that it may replace in future episodes. Understeer is very prevalent and the Buffalo's V6-sounding engine requires huge rpm to accomodate for it. At high speed, the buffalo is remarkably stable, and lift-throttle oversteer is nearly non-exsistant.

Handling-wise, the Police Buffalo is well-balanced, and sticks to the road a bit better than the apparently aging [[Vapid]] platform that it may replace in future episodes. Understeer is very prevalent and the Buffalo's six-cylinder sounding engine requires huge rpm to accomodate for it. At high speed, the buffalo is remarkably stable, and lift-throttle oversteer is nearly non-exsistant.


Crash deformation is average. In frontal impacts, the suspension appears to be tough, but its engine only takes a few good hits before it begins to smoke.
