Description
Design
The Remington is depicted as a 1970s two-door coupe, modified into a lowrider; accordingly, some Remingtons come equipped with hydraulics. The Remington generally resembles a 1977 or 1978 Lincoln Continental Town Coupe (as identified by the grille and chrome), but with unhidden headlamps, and a baroque stylized rear.
Performance
Performance wise, the vehicle may be described as average. With a rear wheel drive, very low ground clearance and moderately powerful engine, the Remington has an average-to-good top speed, but is susceptible to tailspins when cornering; it is best suited for urban travel.
A flameproof Remington can be found during the mission "High Stakes, Low Rider" for Cesar Vialpando.
Customization
Being a lowrider, Remingtons may be modified further at Loco Low Co. in Willowfield, Los Santos. The selections of customizations offered for the Remington is wide-ranging, boasting unique paintjobs and unique chrome customizations featuring skull-adorned "Chromer" decors to complement the car's baroque design or geometrical "Slamin" parts for more organized decorations.
