Declasse Rhapsody

The Declasse Rhapsody is a two-door hatchback, first appearing in Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned.

The sides and rear resembles an AMC Pacer manufactured in the 1970s, while the front seems to resemble an Isuzu Gemini/Buick Opel (rather than a Chevrolet Chevette, as its Declasse origins might imply). It can be found fairly regularly in Alderney and Bohan, and handles similarly to the Blista Compact, albeit slower.

The Rhapsody's name is a reference to the movie Wayne's World, specifically the famous scene where the two lead characters, Wayne and Garth, sing along to the song "Bohemian Rhapsody" by Queen while driving in the "Mirthmobile" (an AMC Pacer). A photograph can be seen within the Rhapsody depicting two people resembling Wayne and Garth. Furthermore, a "W" (as in "Wayne's World") is seen badged inside and outside the car.
