In the [[GTA III Era]], it appears to be based loosely on a [[wp:First-generation Ford Mustang|1964-68 Ford Mustang]], mostly due its small size and name since there are no other remarkable similarities; but the grille loosely resembles a 1969/1970 [[wp:Oldsmobile Cutlass#Third Generation - 1968-1972|Oldsmobile Cutlass]] (also the [[:wp:Oldsmobile 442|Oldsmobile 442]]) (creating a look similar to an [[:wp:Oldsmobile Omega|Oldsmobile Omega]]), and the back bumper looks loosely based on those of '70-'72 Cutlasses (but this is less obvious in the GTA SA rendition). The hood carries on the resemblance of the 1968-1970 Pontiac GTO. The prominent Oldsmobile cues give the Stallion a [[Sabre|proto-Sabre-like]] design, until it was more accurately revised for the GTA IV version.

In GTA IV, it's manufactured by [[Classique]] and resembles a much bigger muscle car rather than a pony car. The grille, lights, and hood remain almost unchanged but the chassis is more like 1968-69 Oldsmobile Cutlasses but the sides bear the aggressive, heavily creased, lines of 1970-1972 Oldsmobile Cutlasses; the rear end looks like that of a 1971 or '72 Cutlass (it says "STALLION" above the bumper much like it says "OLDSMOBILE") with extra lights. The headlights are surrounded by headlight bezels similar to the ones on a '68 Cutlass. Its engine is a 347ci (5.6 litre) V8. It is similar in appearance to the [[Clover]] from GTA San Andreas.

The Stallion's headlight and taillight positions closely resemble a [[wp:Plymouth Barracuda|Plymouth Barracuda]]. It does also resemble the 1969-1973 Mustang due to the single headlight setup.

* Under the "[[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars|Chinatown Wars]]" section of the [[Rockstar Games Social Club]] website, members may download a printable papercraft model of a Stallion. The papercraft model features the [[Vapid]] logo on its grille instead of the [[Classique]] logo and nameplate. It bears more of a likeness to a 1970–74 Plymouth Barracuda and 1969–1973 Ford Mustang, while the grille emulates a 1964/1965 Mustang's.

* The Stallion's headlight and taillight positions are almost exactly that to a Barracuda. This resemblance is also explained by the body design, which was mainly seen on the Barracuda. It has does also resemble the 1969-1973 Mustang due to the single headlight setup, however the grille is a combination of both the Mustang and Barracuda.
