A Stretch E in The Ballad of Gay Tony (Rear quarter view).

The Benefactor Stretch E is a limousine version of the The Ballad of Gay Tony rendition of the Schafter.

Description

The Stretch E is nothing more than a regular TBOGT rendition Schafter with an extended wheelbase. While sharing the same name as the Stretch, the Stretch E is seemingly less luxurious, as it lacks any additions aside two more seats in the rear compartment. The body-style is based on a 2010 Mercedes E-class W212 Limousine.

The Stretch E does not have the engine sound that the Schafter has but a sound that may derive from the Primo as it sounds like a V6, not a V12 as the Schafter has. Being shorter than the Stretch, the Stretch E has slightly better performance, being capable of more tighter cornering and better acceleration. However its top speed is identical: 150 km/h (93 mph).

Locations

The Stretch E is used as the escape vehicle in the mission Frosting on the Cake and is be the only time when one can acquire the vehicle. Like the the vast majority of road vehicles, Stretch Es only spawn in traffic when the player is driving another Stretch E. But some might appear after playing/Replaying Frosting on the Cake for some limited time. Even if you abandon the car for the mission.

Trivia

  • It shares the same rim design as GTA IV's older Schafter.
  • The vehicle's name is an obvious play on the term "stretchy" due to the fact it is a longer version of a normal length car.
