Being a front-engine, rear-wheel drive, with a 10-cylinder engine, the Banshee between GTA III and GTA Vice City Stories is one of the speediest sports cars but suffers from poor cornering due to its rear wheel drive, making it prone to fishtailing and spinouts in sharp turns (including handbrake turns).

Examination of game data for GTA III to GTA San Andreas reveal the vehicle's performance stats remain unchanged, with a top speed of 124 mph (200 km/h), a weight of 3,087 lbs (1,400 kg), a 5-speed transmission, an acceleration of 10.7 ft/s (3.3 m/s), and all-wheel brakes; these stats could be shared with the Banshee in GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories. The Banshee's speed in GTA Advance is significantly high, nearly matching that of the [[Police Car|police car]], but has a marginally low [[crusher]] value of $448. | ||

[[Chan Jaoming]] is depicted in GTA Chinatown Wars to own a modified Banshee, which features a purple body with red stripes, a spoiler, and light purple underglows at night, similar to the modified [[Comet]]. The car is obtainable in two missions: The first is in ''[[Jackin' Chan]]'', when the car is caught in an inferno following a failed attempt by the [[Irish-American Killers|Irish gang]] to kidnap Chan, and the car must be used to transport Chan to safety; the player must fail the mission to obtain the car. The second is during ''[[Clear the Pier]]'', when Chan uses the car as a getaway vehicle. The player can pin the car to a wall and carjack it outright, allowing them to complete the mission while the car is in their possession. | [[Chan Jaoming]] is depicted in GTA Chinatown Wars to own a modified Banshee, which features a purple body with red stripes, a spoiler, and light purple underglows at night, similar to the modified [[Comet]].
