The Comet from GTA Vice City to GTA Vice City Stories is based on the [[wp:Porsche 911|Porsche 911]]; it best resembles the 911 Carrera Cabriolet from 1976 or the early 1980s, however, like newer 911 models, it has an all-wheel-drive configuration. The car features a [[wp:targa top|targa top]] similar to the Targa 911s; however, the [[wp:fastback|fastback]] profile the Comet sported in GTA Vice City was dropped in favor of a backwards-slanted standalone C-pillar until GTA IV. Similarly, the Comet in the Xbox version of GTA Vice City also it shares the same rear design as the Comet in GTA San Andreas and GTA Vice City Stories. The Comet between GTA Vice City and GTA Vice City Stories is also front-engined, unlike the real Porsche 911, which is famously rear-engined; this led to speculation that the Comet was inspired by a [[wp:Nissan S30|Datsun 240Z]], as did the inset headlamps, which is not seen on any Porsche model. The headlamps may also have been inspired by the [[wp:Alfa Romeo Spider|1966-1969 Alfa Romeo Spider]]. | The Comet from GTA Vice City to GTA Vice City Stories is based on the [[:wp:Porsche 911|Porsche 911]]; it best resembles the 911 Carrera Cabriolet from 1976 or the early 1980s, however, like newer 911 models, it has an all-wheel-drive configuration.

GTA IV's Comet, manufactured by [[Pfister]], is available only in hardtop coupe form. It now largely resembles a Type 997 [[wp:Porsche 997|Porsche 911 Carrera 4S]], while retaining the scooped headlights of previous Comets, though with a decidedly Porsche-like design. The Comet features large, cross-drilled disc brakes all around. Inside are two sport seats in black leather resembling Lamborghini's seat design. Similar to the Grotti [[Turismo]], the Comet also features a front-mounted, carpeted boot with space for luggage. Unlike its predecessors, GTA IV's Comet is very rarely encountered on the streets, and is more common in [[Multiplayer in GTA IV|Party Mode]] where two parked Comets can be seen and driven. Like the real 911, the GTA IV Comet is rear-engined. In [[No. 1]], Niko Bellic races other opponents with a yellow Comet and has the ability to keep it. | GTA IV's Comet, manufactured by [[Pfister]], is available only in hardtop coupe form.

For GTA Chinatown Wars, two variants of the Comet are available, a regular Comet being similar to GTA IV's Comet, as well as a highly modified racing variant, featuring a purple-and-red paintjob, a bodykit, and white neon underglows that turn on at night. | For GTA Chinatown Wars, two variants of the Comet are available, a regular Comet being similar to GTA IV's Comet, as well as a highly modified racing variant, featuring a purple-and-red paintjob, a bodykit, and white neon underglows that turn on at night. | ||
