The '''Yardie Lobo''' is a gang car that appears in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]. The vehicle is used by the [[Uptown Yardies]] gang.  
The '''Yardie Lobo''' (known simply as the '''Yardie''' in [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]]) is a gang car that appears in [[Grand Theft Auto III]], [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]], and [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]. As its name implies, the vehicle is driven by [[Uptown Yardies]] gang members within their territories.


The Lobo is famous as being the only car with hydraulic suspension in the game. It resembles a 1970 Chevrolet Impala and the taillights seem closer to a 1965 Impala.
== Description ==
=== Design ===
The Yardie Lobo is a lowrider with functional hydraulic suspensions, leopard skin seats and sporty rims, as well as a pair of pink fuzzy dice hung from the rear-view mirror, and red interior door panels. It also appears with only a red body color and a yellow soft top in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, or a green body with a yellow top in GTA Advance. The vehicle resembles a [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/94/73_Impala.jpg fifth generation Chevrolet Impala] and the taillights seem closer to a [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/50/65_Impala_SS_convt.jpg 1965 Impala]. Like other sedan and station wagon-based gang cars in the GTA Liberty City Stories, the game's Lobo also gains a sport car-like engine sound, implying it is a high-performance car.


==Locations==
The Lobo earns the distinction of being the only vehicle with functional hydraulic suspensions in GTA III, similar to the [[Haitians]]-driven [[Voodoo]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]. Introduced in GTA III, the Lobo is also the first vehicle in the [[Grand Theft Auto|GTA series]] with hydraulic suspension.

Similar to the [[Cartel Cruiser]], [[Forelli Exsess]], and [[Sindacco Argento]], it does not have a non-gang variant.

=== Performance ===
The Lobo's performance is described as average, possessing slightly above average speed, moderate steering sensitivity but a susceptibility to tailspins during high speed corning. Having only two doors, the Lobo can only seat two. The suspension set-up is mediocre, but when the height-rasing hydraulics are activated, the Lobo is prone to flipping over at the slightest bump.
 
== Trivia ==
* In GTA III, the Yardie Lobo has a unique horn, a high-pitched variant of the [[Cheetah]]'s horn. However, it is only heard when an NPC pedestrian is driving the Lobo.
** However, the same-sounding horn would be passed on to the [[Admiral]], a vehicle without hydraulics in GTA Vice City.
 
== Locations ==
; GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories
* Seen driven around [[Newport]], [[Staunton Island]], [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]]. The Lobo can also be encountered in [[Belleville Park]] on some occasions.
