The Sentinel XS in GTA Vice City (Rear quarter view).

The Sentinel XS is a luxury car and a sportier variant of the regular Sentinel that has appeared in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and Grand Theft Auto IV so far.

Description

Ever since the Sentinel was introduced in GTA III, a sportier variant has always been present in every GTA game, excluding GTA San Andreas. In GTA III and Liberty City Stories, only the Leone Family gang members drive this car, which is therefore known as the Mafia Sentinel (Leone Sentinel in Liberty City Stories).

Game system files of GTA Vice City, refer to the Sentinel XS as "Mafia" proving that the model was a copy based off the Mafia Sentinel. The Sentinel XS's main difference in comparison to the regular Sentinel include the spoiler with window grilles on the back of the car as well as being a bit faster. In GTA Vice City Stories, the Sentinel XS is the preferred gang car of the Mendez Cartel. The Sentinel XS in GTA Vice City and Vice City Stories is based on the BMW M5.

GTA IV features an updated Sentinel XS and the game refers to the car as a regular Sentinel when entered, however, features different badging, giving the car the XS name. Being just a variant of the Sentinel, it handles exactly the same as the standard Sentinel. Actually, the Sentinel XS is only a Sentinel with a lot of extras added, as revealed in the game's files. It also has a rear spoiler sporting "STD" decals. STD stands for "Sentinel Tuning Division", but in real life the acronym commonly means "sexually transmitted disease". STD could also be a parody of Subaru's STi marque or a play on BMW's in-house tuning division, BMW M. The GTA IV rendition emulates the BMW M3 GTR.
