The Imponte Ruiner is a 2-door coupe found exclusively in Grand Theft Auto IV, resembling a 1982–1992 Pontiac Firebird, some even featuring a "Ruiner" decal along the lower part of the doors, similar to the IROC-Z counterpart.

Design

The front end semi-concealed pop-up headlights are a bit more reminiscent of the mid to late 80's Nissan 300ZX (Z31 Series). However, the curved rear windscreen is unmistakable as GM's F-Body sports car range. There are a couple Pontiac Firebird influences: The taillights are shaped like a Camaro's, but the arrangement of the lights looks similar to a Firebird's and the area between the taillights is similar to a Firebird's (but says "Imponte" where the Firebird logo would be). It is most likely meant to emulate a Firebird since it is manufactured by Imponte.

Some Ruiners feature license plate frames that say "Ruining Imports Since '67," which is the year the aforementioned GM F-body coupes debuted (however, this seems contradicted since it has some Nissan influence).

Ruiners feature 450ci (7.3 liter) V8s, which easily justify what is said on the number plate frame.

Variant(rare version)

There is a special gold coloured edition version of the Ruiner that as said earlier, is gold coloured and has gold rims. This type of variant is usually commonly seen, especially found parked sometimes.
