A Sentinel in GTA III (Rear quarter view).

The Sentinel is a luxury sedan introduced in Grand Theft Auto III. Originally appearing as a four-door car, the Sentinel assumes the design of a two-door coupe in Grand Theft Auto IV. In GTA Advance the vehicle is the gang car of the Leone Family

To date, the Sentinel has appeared in the following games:

Design

GTA III — GTA Vice City Stories

The Sentinel resembles a 1996-2003 BMW 5 Series sedan (specifically the 528i) in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories. Whilst, in GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories it resembles a BMW 7 Series E23, as well as a BMW 7 Series E32 in GTA San Andreas.

GTA IV

The Sentinel in GTA IV is manufactured by Übermacht and modeled after the BMW 3 Series E46 coupe, most likely the 2001-2006 M3, due to the bumper design. The tail lights seem inspired by the older E36 3 Series.

After collecting all thirty cars for Stevie he agrees to purchase cars from Niko Bellic, with the Sentinel fetching $2,500.

Performance

GTA III — GTA Vice City Stories

The Sentinel handles well, with its rear-drive layout sometimes leading to over steer. The Sentinel has a V6 engine in all of the GTA III Era games. It is generally found throughout the business districts of all the cities. However, some can be seen driving in the general suburbs, and sometimes in the wealthy parts of town.

GTA IV

The Sentinel in GTA IV, in its newer design as a modern sports coupe, reaches a top speed of 192mph - not far from the fastest vehicle in the game. It reaches 60mph in 6.5 seconds which is above average and also reaches its top speed fairly quickly as well. It is the best choice in the Modern category in a multiplayer race. The suspension is rather soft and it tends to roll when going round tighter bends at high speed. The handling is superior to many vehicles, but at high speeds, it loses a lot of grip and spins out of control very easily.

Locations

Grand Theft Auto III

  • In the mission Hit The Courier, the main target is driving a unique, black Sentinel. The player can snipe the driver to obtain it, as the doors are locked.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

Grand Theft Auto IV
