==Description==
==Description==
The rear wheel drive Super Diamond resembles a [[wp:Rolls-Royce Phantom (2003)|Rolls-Royce Phantom]]. Its attributes are more realistic than its [[Super Drop Diamond|convertible counterpart]] (crash deformation is now average and it is slower and handles more normally) but it still performs better than it would in real life. The vehicle is in fact a very rare sight, but tends to spawn on the roads of West Algonquin, around the Golf Club area.
The Super Diamond is intended to resemble a [[wp:Rolls-Royce Phantom (2003)|Rolls-Royce Phantom]], although the car appears to be less regal in construction, with its front wheels shifted slightly to the front, and features various slight cosmetic changes. When compared to the Super Drop Diamond, the attributes of the rear wheel drive Super Diamond are inferior but more realistic—crash deformation is average, top speed and acceleration are only slightly above average, and handling is average—but it still performs better than it would in real life.
 
The [[Super Drop Diamond]] is a two-door convertible variant based on the Super Diamond.


==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* The Super Diamond's [[wp:hood ornament|hood ornament]] consists of a blocky ring affixed with a pair of wings, parodying the [[wp:Spirit of Ecstasy|Spirit of Ecstasy (Flying Lady)]] that adorns current Rolls-Royce cars. The lack of effective [[wp:Phong shading|Phong shading]] on the ring (appearing instead to feature [[wp:Gouraud shading|Gouraud shading]]) had lead to the perception that the ring is supposed to mimic the form of a cut diamond. The same hood ornament is also visible on the [[Super Drop Diamond]].
* The Super Diamond shares the same rim design as the [[Oracle]]. Coincidentally, BMW, which is parodied in game as the Oracle-producing "[[Ubermacht]]", is also the parent company of Rolls-Royce in real life, also to fact in the first stages of designing the Rolls-Royce Phantom, the shell of the BMW 750I was used as a design guide, Rolls-Royce also state, the Phantom is a larger, more luxurious BMW 7 Series.

* If you get a sniper and aim and zoom in on the front badge (Rolls-Royce style badge) there should be a real diamond in the badge. The same applies to the [[Super Drop Diamond]] (owned by [[Yusuf Amir]]) has a Diamond in its badge. This parodies the [[wp:Spirit of Ecstasy|Spirit of Ecstasy (Flying Lady)]] emblem that adorns current Rolls-Royce cars.
* The Super Diamond has no reverse gear lights. The same applies for the Super Drop Diamond.
* The Super Diamond and its cabrio counterpart have no reverse gear lights.
