The '''Shark''' is a vehicle in [[Grand Theft Auto 2]] that can be found in the Downtown and Industrial Districts of [[Anywhere City]]. It gives molotov cocktails in the Downtown District and a rocket launcher in the Industrial District when crushed. In the beta version of [[Grand Theft Auto III]], the [[Stinger]] was called the "Shark".
The '''Shark''' is a four-door car featured [[Grand Theft Auto 2]].
 
== Description ==
The Shark is fashioned as a four-door sedan with an apparently 1930/1940s body design, distinguishable by its slender frontal radiator grille that stretches over to the boot lid of the car. With <code>GRAHAM</code> as its internal name, the car's name is implied to be inspired by [[wp:Graham-Paige|Graham-Paige]]'s 1938-1940 [http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&um=1&q=Graham+sharknose&sa=N&start=0&ndsp=18 "Sharknose" car], which sported a shark-like front facade design. The actual design of the Shark, however, differs significantly in various respects.
 
Despite its unassuming appearance, the performance of the car is surprising excellent, with a significantly high top speed and good acceleration (with a moderate gearshift delay). The car's steering and braking are also good. When [[Crusher|crushed]], the car grants the player [[Molotov Cocktail]]s in the [[Downtown District]], or [[Rocket Launcher]]s in the [[Industrial District]].
 
== Trivia ==
* A working name for the [[Stinger]] in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] is "Shark". The use of the name is evidenced in the "official" website for [[Capital Autos]] [http://www.rockstargames.com/grandtheftauto3/flash/capitalAutos/].
 
== Locations ==
* The [[Downtown District|Downtown]] and [[Industrial District]]s of [[Anywhere City]].
