The Benefactor Schafter 6.5 supercharged V-12 is a luxury 4-door sedan featured in Grand Theft Auto IV. It is based on the Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W220)
Performance
The Schafter, powered by a 6.5L V12 coupled to a 5 speed gearbox in RWD configuration is quite a heavy vehicle. Acceleration is below average, compared to other vehicles in its class. Top speed is average, and enjoyable. Handling on the Schafter is above average, and though a slight hint of oversteer is detectable, it's firm suspension makes it a joy in low-speed cornering. The suspension is a perfect balance of firm and soft, keeping the Schafter planted on the road in turns, while not jarring over bumps. Braking is fair, and ABS is available; though not standard. Crash deformation is superb, as the Schafter can take many direct hits before being rendered unusable. Engine build quality is also superb, and can sustain multiple bullet strikes before catching fire.
Variant
There is a tuned version of the Schafter, along the lines of Mercedes-Benz's "AMG" Division. It comes in silver or black and has black rims, sport body kit, and no front emblem. It is based on the Mercedes-Benz S65 "AMG" models. This version of the Schafter can be found in Hove Beach in Broker, being driven by the Russian Mafia.
