	=== Design ===		=== Design ===
	In both [[The Lost and Damned]] and [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], the [[Bravado]] Tampa is redesigned as a far more beefy muscle car that may butt heads with the [[Sabre GT]]. The front of the Tampa resembles a [[wp:Dodge Dart#1970–1976\|1970~~/1971~~ Dodge Dart]]; the roof and sides of the car are reminiscent of the [[wp:Chevrolet Nova#Third generation\|'68-72 Chevrolet Nova]] (but with less of a fastback profile); the rear is reminiscent of a [[wp:Dodge Charger (B-body)#1968-1970\|1968 Dodge Charger]]. The stripe across the back is similar to the bumblebee stripes on [[wp:Dodge\|Dodge]] vehicles. Being a muscle car, its engine sound is similar to that of a [[Sabre GT]] or [[Dukes (car)\|Dukes]]. It can be seen sporting one all-over color, or with a double-stripe scheme.

	The Tampa in TLAD only appears in the opening cutscene in front of the Pay n' Spray, and is also featured in the BradyGames Strategy Guide for the episode. There was speculation by fans that the vehicle was available to drive outside of the cutscene, and the claims were backed up by lines in the game code which specify the handling and animations of the car; indeed, the car can be spawned by using cheat device and driven like a normal vehicle - it has every data to being drivable. An email sent by Rockstar indicated that the car was not actually drivable in the game; the car is also not programmed to appear on streets, even if player drives it.
