Admiral: Difference between revisions

In GTA Vice City, GTA San Andreas, GTA Vice City Stories, the car resembles a 1980s [[wp:Mercedes-Benz W123|Mercedes-Benz W123]]. In GTA San Andreas, it appears to feature a minor 1990s facelift, although in reality, at this point of time, the W123 was replaced by the [[wp:Mercedes-Benz W124|Mercedes-Benz W124]]. According to the [http://www.rockstargames.com/vicecity/ Grand Theft Auto: Vice City] website, the Admiral originates from Germany.

=== GTA IV — GTA Chinatown Wars ===

In GTA Chinatown Wars, the Admiral takes on an older form, arguably appearing like an old Lincoln, similar to the [[Marbelle]]; however, the rear is unlike any Lincoln or Mercedes. Some drug dealers in the [[Drug Dealing|drug dealing side mission]] also store drugs in the trunks of Admirals, showing off a rear that resembles that of a 1980s Lincoln. The car also emits a clunky engine noise, which is a probable testament to its age. Thus, the styling of the car is best described as a vague mix of the GTA IV and pre-GTA IV renditions.

== Performance ==

* Similarly, a black Admiral can be found during "[[Loose Ends]]", at a [[Little Havana]] compound where the player must fight his way to a target. Although the car is unlocked, the car cannot be normally driven away as the only gate large enough for the car to leave is half-opened. Like the black Pony in the same compound, players will need to obtain two [[Packer]]s, using one Packer to boost the second Packer over the gate, so the second Packer can be used to ramp the Admiral out of the compound.
