The Buffalo in GTA San Andreas appears to based on the [[wp:Third-generation Chevrolet Camaro|third-generation Chevrolet Camaro]]. Even though it is clearly based on a 1982-1992 Camaro, it has been changed quite a bit. The headlights are circular, coincidentally similar to a 1994-2001 [[wp:Honda Integra|Acura Integra]]; a C-pillar has been added, bearing somewhat of a resemblance to [[wp:Dodge Daytona|1984–1993 Dodge Daytonas]]; and the shape taillights look closer to some [[wp:third-generation Pontiac Firebird|third-generation Pontiac Firebird]] models. The Buffalo also has a ram air hood, and, surprisingly, handles well off-road.

In GTA IV and its DLCs, the [[Bravado]] Buffalo is a four-door sports sedan based on the [[wp:Dodge Charger (LX)|2006—2010 Dodge Charger]] with its front end bearing subtle similarities to a [[wikipedia:Ford Mustang (fifth generation)|2005–2009 Ford Mustang]]. When GTA IV was originally released, the game's rendition of the Buffalo had not been made available as a consumer model, despite numerous billboards advertising the car in Liberty City (most prominently at the end of the [[Dukes Boulevard Station]] line in [[Steinway]], [[Dukes]]). Rather, the vehicle is initially depicted as a law enforcement vehicle for the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|Federal Investigation Bureau]], dubbed the [[FIB Buffalo]]. The retail model is featured as an added vehicle in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], the second downloadable episode for GTA IV.

The Buffalo is briefly seen in the GTA V first trailer, and seems identical to its appearance in GTA IV.


The law enforcement model is taken from the base model of the Police Package Charger as it is powered by a V6 engine, similar to the [[Police Patrol]]. Both variants have a stock body kit and plain black wheels with chrome centercaps. The FIB variant is only available in black and features 2 sets of emergency lights mounted on its grille and rear windshield whereas the LCPD variant is similar to its [[Police Patrol|Declasse]] and [[Police Cruiser|Vapid]] counterparts.
