Washington
Overview
The Washington is a 4 door sedan found in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories. It is available in many colors throughout the games except black in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, which is reserved for only the FBI Washington. It can be found fairly widely throughout the map in both games.
Design
In Vice City and San Andreas, the Washington bears a similarity to a Seventh Generation Lincoln Continental but the front and back look more like a Lincoln Mark VII. In GTA IV, the Washington is now a clone of a current Lincoln Town Car L or the lengthened version of the regular town car.
Performance
Acceleration and speed are surprisingly satisfying for this large vehicle. The rear-drive Washington is powered by a V8, and handling and braking match the engine's power quite well, although fishtailing is common. Furthermore, the body is sturdy and can withstand a good deal of damage, making this an ideal drive-by vehicle. It's weight also makes it good for ramming cars out of the way, for example a police road block.
