The paint scheme is . Like other law enforcement vehicles, it cannot be repaired at the [[Pay 'n' Spray]]. | ||
NOOSE uses the vehicle to ram the player and in roadblocks which are more trouble to avoid than regular police cars (the [[Police Cruiser]] and [[Police Patrol]]) and [[NOOSE Cruiser]]s; strangely, being a vehicle clearly made to ram other cars it doesn't feature front bull-bar. The NOOSE Patriot is difficult to obtain, as this may require shooting away [[NOOSE|NOOSE officers]], get in the car, then drive off as fast as you can to evade the radius. | |||

It is heavy and good for ramming, much like the stock Patriot. Like its partner, the [[NOOSE Cruiser]], the NOOSE Patriot is encountered frequently at 3-star wanted levels and above, and sometimes will come at the player from the front in an attempt to ram them. Its elevated cabin and narrow windshield make shooting out the driver very difficult. The raised ground clearance however, allows an easy shot at the tires. | ||
Along with the great performance, the handling is equally improved. Instead of being down and heavy like the normal Patriot, the handling feels like the car is lighter. However, along with being very fast, if you steer too much, one of the front wheels can lift off the ground and make it prone to rolling over. So you'd want to take it easy in the corners when driving the car. | Along with the great performance, the handling is equally improved.
