The Bullet is a sports car in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. The Bullet is not to be confused with the Bullet GT, a presumably enhanced variant of the Bullet in The Ballad of Gay Tony.
Description
Design
Its shape closely resembles a Ford GT, making the car an anachronism; the GT wasn't introduced until 2002, ten years after the game takes place. The Ford GT40 was used as a racecar in the 1960s, but bears less of a resemblance to the Bullet. In a beta screenshot of GTA San Andreas, the Bullet is seen with a double stripe and a different hood, identical to that on the real Ford GT, the beta model is also portrayed in some renderings inside of Otto's Autos, a showroom in Downtown San Fierro. The change to a single stripe in the actual game may have been aimed at avoiding a blatantly obvious design influence from a car that wouldn't exist for another 10 years (hence the year 2005).
Performance
Acceleration, speed, handling, and braking are among the best in the game. The only real sacrifice is susceptibility to intense damage upon impact, especially at the excessive speeds the vehicle is capable of reaching. The vehicle is mid-engine, rear-drive. A closer look at the engine shows six injector trumpets, suggesting that the engine is actually a V6 instead of a V8.
Locations
- At the Driving School in Doherty, San Fierro after achieving silver medals in all the schools tests. The car constantly appears with an all-white body color.
- In a factory carpark in Doherty, San Fierro
- Can be seen driven on The Strip.
- Located at Burger Shot in Calton Heights, San Fierro. The car constantly appears with unique a gray body color and brown stripe.
- Available at Easter Basin docks, San Fierro for import after third list completion, for $84,000 on Saturday
Car modification (GTA San Andreas)
- Color (two areas)
- Wheels (ten types)
- Nitro (three types)
- Hydraulics
Trivia
- In GTA San Andreas, the default radio station in the Bullet is SF-UR.
- Certain Bullets in GTA San Andreas acquired through unconventional means may bear special vanity plates:
FUCK YOU(Easter Basin docks)TOO FAST(Easter Basin docks)CHUNKY(Burger Shot, San Fierro)
