Stallion

The Stallion, as depicted in Grand Theft Auto III.

The Stallion is a two-door convertible muscle car featured in the majority of the games in the series so far, including Grand Theft Auto 1 and all of the games in the GTA III Era.

Overview

The Stallion was first featured in GTA1, in which it appears as a hardtop design and is one of the faster cars on the road; but didn't appear again in the series until GTA III. In true muscle car fashion, it has V8 power channelled to the rear wheels. It's handling varies somewhat in each game. In GTA III its handling is quite unstable and the car suffers from a lot of oversteer, while in GTA: Vice City is slightly more stable, in both games the Stallion can be used to easily perform drifts and doughnuts, while in San Andreas it handles much like the Clover and Sabre. The vehicle also appears in GTA: Liberty City Stories and GTA: Vice City Stories, where they have similar attributes to the GTA III and GTA: Vice City renditions, respectively.

In GTA IV the Stallion is easier to steer, but it will occasionally spin out of control, especially in poor weather conditions such as rain. However, it can reach higher speeds than the Stallions in previous GTA games.

In all it's appearances the Stallion strongly resembles a 1968 Ford Mustang with a front grille similar to a 1970 Oldsmobile Cutlass.
