	I agree that the front and the back (especially the back) looks very similar to the Allante. But the feel of the car, as well as it's overall shape are a lot closer to the Buick Century. I always thought of it as a Century or Regal, I couldn't help it. It just felt so V6. I dunno, that's my 2 cents. -AmirGTR		I agree that the front and the back (especially the back) looks very similar to the Allante.

	I have driven the Primo all afternoon on GTA IV today and I think it's brilliant. It's good to drive because the steering is light, body roll is controlled and you can feel the texture of the road through the controller. the looks simple not too flash, not too bland just great it's just overall simplicity. The primo was one of the first cars I ever drove on GTA IV when I first got it in ~~march~~ 2008 along with the Cavalcade I loved this car and I still do I think albany is the best manufacturer in GTA IV. One thing I disagree with is the speed listed on the website 193MPH! Dream on it feels much slower than that maybe about 120mph tops but I don't care about the speed I Iove this car it begs the question why use other 4 doors when this is just so good to drive. This car is great.[[User:Andrew nicholson\|Andrew nicholson]] 16:32, July 22, 2010 (UTC)		I have driven the Primo all afternoon on GTA IV today and I think it's brilliant.

	If you look at the shape of the rear doors you can see they are somewhat closer to the Buick Century and the B-pillars are black and the Century has a more rounded design. But you make a good point about the two tone color design, I never really noticed Primos showed up with two colors because the colors are very similar 1986-1988. Ok, and also I noticed the top of the Ptimo's trunk lid has this spoilerish thing going on (what do I call it?), it involves this little chrome line on the side - I noticed that is very similar to 1992-2004 Sevilles but Sevilles have this little taillight strip (and that is omitted on the Primo), that could also be where the added bulk is from. It's amazing how the Rockstar people (or whoever) can apply such little details on these cars. --[[User:Thescarydude\|Thescarydude]] 00:32, 4 June 2009 (UTC)		If you look at the shape of the rear doors you can see they are somewhat closer to the Buick Century and the B-pillars are black and the Century has a more rounded design.
