Schafter From GTA IV

The Benefactor Schafter V-12 is a luxury 4-door sedan and is available only in Grand Theft Auto IV. It is based on the Mercedes Benz S600.

The Schafter could be considered one of the most luxurious cars in the game, along with the Cognoscenti and Oracle XS. The Schafter is probably the second most luxurious car in the game, with the Cognoscenti being first and Oracle XS being third. In terms of speed, the Schafter is much faster than the Cognoscenti and Oracle XS because of its V12 engine.

Being heavy, its acceleration is not spectacular, but still pretty good for a luxury saloon, however the powerful V12 can propel the car to a high top speed, and its rear-drive layout makes it good in low speed corners.

One special version of this seems like it is supposed to be the sport version of the Schafter, like Mercedes Benz's "AMG" It comes in wither silver or black and has black rims, sportier bobdy kit, and not front emblem, it is based on the Mercedes Benz W220 or 2000-2006 S65 "AMG" models for the S-Class. The Schafters have a V12 SuperCharged insignia on the side, and has a 6.5L SC engine which is one difference from the S600, (S600 is a 6.0 liter.) This was driven by the Petrovic Family.
