Like most other rare sport cars from GTA IV, the Infernus was made MUCH more common in TBoGT. You can usually find Infernuses in Star Junction or in Westminister, The Meat Quarter, and Purgatory. | |||

For the Infernus, top speed is listed as 336 km/h and the 2nd fastest car in GTAIV, second only to the Comet . The Coquette however, is listed having a top speed of 344km/h that is higher than the Infernus. I am going to change the info. --The Man With The 9mm 11:25, October 15, 2009 (UTC) | ||
Actually, there's really a big problem about top speeds. They are quite overestimated. 344 km/h for the Comet ? I thought the Porsche 911 could only reach 285. But it's even worse : when you know what is 300 km/h, you'd also knwo that you can't reach such a speed in GTA IV. Cars are even quite slow in this game. I made a test, and the top speed I found for the Comet was 140 km/h.

:Yeah, I was pretty leary of the "3xx"km/h numbers; that'd be insanely fast. | Nobody knows the EXACT speeds of ALL the cars in the game. To determine which is faster, time a test from one point in the Airport to another point in the Airport or something. [[User:GTAFan123|GTAFan123]] 06:10, August 15, 2010 (UTC) | ||
:Yeah, I was pretty leary of the "3xx"km/h numbers; that'd be insanely fast. All the wiki's numbers come from gta4.net, don't they? (I know I've used it a few times for edits). Any idea where that database gets its numbers from? (and how do you measure speed in-game? Is there a speedometer I've overlooked?) --[[User:Samadriel|Samadriel]] 14:16, October 12, 2009 (UTC) | |||
::I've used a mod to know the speed.

To Loadingue's first comment: If the Comet is not really capable of those speeds, why is that info in the article? Or you could at least add a small sentence saying that the Comet isn't actually capable of reaching over 300km/h. You seem to know a lot more about this than I do and that is why I am proposing this to you. --The Man With The 9mm 11:36, October 15, 2009 (UTC) | To Loadingue's first comment: If the Comet is not really capable of those speeds, why is that info in the article?

:I expect he was waiting for you, since you said you'd do it... | :I expect he was waiting for you, since you said you'd do it... Anyone know a better source than GTA4.net? (I don't know where the data is in the game files, nor whether it renders speeds in mph or km/h or an abstract number). Maybe one of those printed game guides would have car speeds? I'm a bit of a neat freak, I'd fix all the published top speeds if we could find a reliable source. If we can't, might be better to edit 'em all out. --[[User:Samadriel|Samadriel]] 12:01, October 15, 2009 (UTC) | ||
The top speed is not directly written in any file, so I'm making in-game tests at the moment to know the top speed for each vehicle.--[[User:Loadingue|Loadingue]] 14:43, October 15, 2009 (UTC) | The top speed is not directly written in any file, so I'm making in-game tests at the moment to know the top speed for each vehicle.--[[User:Loadingue|Loadingue]] 14:43, October 15, 2009 (UTC) | ||

: Sorry mate, not true. | : Sorry mate, not true. During ''the time Stevie wants that car'' it will respawn (ie, you can take a target car to a safehouse and then come back and take another for Stevie), but once it's delivered, it won't show up there anymore. --[[User:Samadriel|Samadriel]] 01:21, November 2, 2009 (UTC) | ||
::I know this is off topic, but that's not entirely true. Stevie's Dukes always spawns in East Holland, near Modo, for me; even though I completed all of his car thefts. I can't remember if the Dukes was the last car I got for him or not. Although, I do have a feeling that the last car you get for Stevie always spawns in the place that you picked it up from.
