The customizations of the RS are reminiscent of a stock Second Generation [[:wp:Subaru Impreza WRX STI|Subaru Impreza WRX STI]] Rev. A, which is sold with rally specifications. The car could also be emulating a HKS Track Attack Altezza (although there are no evident cues). There are two physical variants: one has a hood scoop, and one does not; there is no apparent difference in performance between the two. | ||
According to the rocker covers on the engine, as well as the model marque on the trunk, it has a 3.5L Twin Turbo powerplant. The car utilizes an AWD drivetrain. It also comes with a carbon fiber hood, roll cage, side exit large-bore exhaust, racing rims, and low-profile tires. Some also have a carbon fiber trunk lid, hood scoop, and metallic paint. This vehicle comes fitted with a high pressure blowoff valve which results in a hissing sound after every gear shift. It also produces a lot of turbo lag because of the high power of the turbo. It is evident that the vehicle is turbocharged, judging by the high-pitched whine produced by the engine at higher RPMs. The exhaust note of this car is similar to that of the Impreza, having an ominous roaring sound. | According to the rocker covers on the engine, as well as the model marque on the trunk, it has a 3.5L Twin Turbo powerplant.

The RS' top speed is the seventh-fastest at the lower end of the game's high-performance vehicles at 160 km/h (100 mph), however its acceleration is the fastest of any car in the game, and its handling is excellent. The Sultan RS is clearly a sports car tuned for asphalt racing, with hard suspension and low profile tires, making it difficult to drive off road, or on wet or uneven roads. It lacks ABS as is customary with many ultra-lightweight track cars. The brakes are powerful, bringing the vehicle from its top speed to a standstill complete stop in very short distances (unlike other sports cars). Another interesting note is that due to it being a lightweight car, it may have the tendency to flip over if sharp turns are executed. | The RS' top speed is the seventh-fastest at the lower end of the game's high-performance vehicles at 160 km/h (100 mph), however its acceleration is the fastest of any car in the game, and its handling is excellent.
