The chassis mainly resembles a [[wp:Ford Thunderbird (first generation)|1955-1957 Ford Thunderbird]] but it has double taillights instead of single ones, giving the rear end a similar appearance to Cadillacs from the early '60s ([http://storm.oldcarmanualproject.com/cadillac/1961/Cad%2761%2010a&11.jpg 1961], [http://www.autominded.net/brochure/cadillac/%2763%20Cad%20-14&15.jpg 1963]). The headlights are loosely based from a 1966 or 1967 [[wp:Pontiac GTO|Pontiac GTO]] with bigger lights and somewhat altered headlight bezels to fit into the styling of the mid-1950s era; there are other vehicles with similar headlights but they still look closer to the Pontiac's. | The chassis mainly resembles a [[wp:Ford Thunderbird (first generation)|1955-1957 Ford Thunderbird]] but it has double taillights instead of single ones, giving the rear end a similar appearance to Cadillacs from the early '60s ([http://storm.oldcarmanualproject.com/cadillac/1961/Cad%2761%2010a&11.jpg 1961], [http://www.autominded.net/brochure/cadillac/%2763%20Cad%20-14&15.jpg 1963]).

The performance of the Peyote in GTA IV is below average in comparison to other cars of similar size in the game, however it tops the top speed leaderboard for the "vintage" class in a multiplayer [[Race]]. The vehicle suffers from an underpowered engine that is unable to provide both good acceleration and top speed (145 km/h (90 mph)). Its long wheelbase and small tires also result in poor cornering and stability, often requiring the aid of the handbrake to make moderately sharp turns. At its top speed the Peyote handles badly but if turned just slightly it will not spin. | The performance of the Peyote in GTA IV is below average in comparison to other cars of similar size in the game, however it tops the top speed leaderboard for the "vintage" class in a multiplayer [[Race]].
