Cut Vehicles: Difference between revisions

These are vehicles that were deleted or cut before the games' release and '''cannot''' be spawned through third party trainers or [[Cheat Device|cheat device]].

Several unnamed cars never appeared in the final version.<ref name="GTA 2 Beta Vehicles">[http://en.wikigta.org/wiki/Ray_Larabie_vehicles_(GTA2) GTA 2 Beta Vehicles - WikiGTA.org]</ref>

[[File:Brigham-GTAIII-betacar.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Brigham in GTA III.]]

An Army helicopter was cut.

The Brigham was a green car that was featured in pre-release renders of GTA III. It was based on a [[wp:Chevrolet Caprice|1977–1979 Chevrolet Caprice]] (despite the name implying a Cadillac (Fleetwood) Brougham); having the older bumper style compared to the Las Venturas police car from GTA SA.

The Panto was another vehicle that was cut from GTA III. The car was planned to be a four-door sedan similar to Fiat 128.<ref name="Capital Autos"></ref>

The school bus was meant to be appeared in GTA III but it was likely removed due to the absence of children in the game.

Remnants of the Coastguard Maverick include an entry in the handling file (COASTMAV) and an entry in the text file (COASTMA). Nothing else is left of this vehicle and based on those two evidence, the vehicle is most likely a helicopter used by the Coastguard.

The Dodo was meant to appear in GTA Vice City but cut during development. This is evidenced in the handling file, possibly replaced by the [[Skimmer]] or a leftover from GTA III.

The Toyz van from GTA III was to be included but it was cut and replaced by [[Top Fun]].

A civilian version of the Patriot was meant to appear, but it was reworked to an army Patriot.

Many previews published before the game's release told of about 425 vehicles included in-game.

The plane previously seen in Vice City and Liberty City was replaced by the [[AT-400]]. Untextured model and handling still exist.

Both Bloodring Bangers were planned to appear in GTA San Andreas. Only the "bloodra" (based on the [[Glendale]]) is featured, the models and handling of the "bloodrb" (based on the [[Oceanic]]) remains.

Textures can be found in gta3.img. (dash.txd)

Another Dune. Textures can be found in gta3.img (dune.txd)

The [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] Car was cut from GTA San Andreas. It was similar to the [[Las Venturas Police Department|Las Venturas]] [[Police Car]], but had a different grille. The model was featured in an unused cutscene.

A totally new vehicle. Despite its name, it does not seem to be a boat. It appears to be a train.

Another new vehicle. Nothing is known about it but its handling, which is very similar to the [[Caddy]]'s, implying this was meant to be a second golf kart.

The famous boat from Vice City was meant to come back in San Andreas. Apart from the handling, there are no leftovers.

It was probably a customized Stallion or a Shelby GT500.

A fast car which was cut during development. Nothing is known about it.

Appears in handling file as possibly leftover of GTA Vice City engine.

It was probably a car used during the mission [[L.C. Confidential]].

Japanese car based on Nissan Skyline GT-R.

According to text file, the Subaru Impreza WRX was going to appear, possibly referring to the [[Sultan]].

A new boat which was cut. It was still listed in the official game guide, but its picture was replaced with [[Speeder]]'s, so nothing is known about this boat.

The same remnants of the Coastguard Maverick from GTA Vice City appears here. They are most likely leftovers from GTA Vice City.

A comeback four-door sedan in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, but it was cut probably for being too modern for the 1980's.

An unnamed motorcycle (possibly a different [[Streetfighter]] or [[PCJ-600]]) was cut.

The Andromada plane from San Andreas was cut in the early development of GTA IV. Only the handling remains.

According to audio files, the Buffalo was a cut car until [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]. The [[FIB Buffalo]] appears though.

According to some hidden audio files, the golf cart was already planned to be available in GTA IV. Its appearance was also delayed until [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]].

The Coach was cut during the development of GTA IV; however, it can be seen in the [[Higgins Helitours]] [[TV Shows in GTA IV|commercial]].

This second plane was also cut from GTA IV, the handling can still be found in the game files.

The [[NOOSE]] variant of the Boxville can be seen in the background of an early GTA IV screenshot.<ref name="GTA IV FIB Boxville"></ref>

The Fighter was a plane meant to make an appearance in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] but was removed. The only notable remnant left in the game is its handling line.  

This car from GTA San Andreas could appear in Liberty City. It has possibly become the [[Faction]], as they are both based on G-body Buicks. Only few audio files still exist.

The Previon from GTA San Andreas was meant to return in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], but only some audio files remain. It could have served as the basis of the [[Hakumai]]'s design as both cars are based on similarly styled Hondas.

Eight chopper motorbikes, finally made available in [[The Lost and Damned]], already had their model and texture in GTA IV. They can be used ingame like normal bikes with help of modifications.

An unnamed SUV that does not appear in GTA IV can be seen on the [[television]] in-game.<ref>[[Talk:Beta Vehicles#Unknown vehicles]]</ref> It appears to be similar to the [[Huntley]] of GTA San Andreas.

''Note: Rockstar has stated in an interview<ref name="">[http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/36881/asked-answered-max-payne-3-and-grand-theft-auto-v.html Asked & Answered: Max Payne 3 and Grand Theft Auto V - rockstargames.com]</ref> that the reason planes were absent from GTA IV is because "the city was simply too small for effective and enjoyable flying"''  <ref name="">[http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/36881/asked-answered-max-payne-3-and-grand-theft-auto-v.html Asked & Answered: Max Payne 3 and Grand Theft Auto V - rockstargames.com]</ref>

A different Admiral (internally named "admiral2") was meant to be featured in The Lost and Damned. It is believed that this was going to be the old Admiral (based on a Mercedes). Very few files still exist.

The same as the above, however there is no clue about the differences to the basic truck.

The [[Rhino]] tank was cut from the final version, although some files still exist. It is possible that it's design was given to the [[APC]] or it may have been a completely different design.

A small new car. Its only leftover is the handling. Its name was probably derived from the three-wheeled Reliant Robin car.

A large truck similar to the [[Noose Enforcer]] and [[Securicar]]. Being an armored car, however the Brickade is designed for monetary transport only, and its design is primarily based on a Progesur armored vehicle. Its horn is derived from the FIB Buffalo, however its only similar when an FIB agent or LCPD officer drives it and is blocked by the player. Its model and texture are in the game's files, and can be put into the game via mods. It is obtainable on [[Xbox 360]] consoles through the use of mods or a modified save game file. No known method for obtaining the Brickade has been found yet for [[PlayStation 3]].

These are the vehicles that had their names cut and changed before the games' release. Other than the name, there were no major changes to the car itself.

=== GTA San Andreas ===

A remote controlled vehicle that is disguised as a pot. It is never used in the game, is ridable and can support two people.

Appears only during [[Zero]]'s cutscene in mission [[Wear Flowers in Your Hair]]. It does not appear anywhere else, but can be spawned via trainers. Additional modifications are needed to control the helicopter.

An APC that was cut before the game's release. It was planned to appear in the cut mission [[The Truth is Out There]].

A trailer that can be attached to [[Utility Van]]. It is unknown why it does not appear in regular game.

=== GTA Liberty City Stories ===

The famous small plane from GTA III could be reintroduced in GTA Liberty City Stories. It can be spawned via trainers, but the lack of acceleration renders the plane useless. It doesn't have in-game name.

The Hunter is the proof that GTA Liberty City Stories was made using the GTA Vice City engine. This helicopter can be spawned using trainers, and has working weaponry, but does not have in-game name and cannot be used in [[Vigilante]] missions.

Both remote controlled helicopters appear in GTA Liberty City Stories files, possibly as leftovers of GTA Vice City engine. They are never used in-game and can be spawned via trainers.

Same as the Hunter, but lack of acceleration again renders the helicopter useless.

=== GTA Vice City Stories ===

The [[Tampa]] was originally supposed to spawn around Liberty City. Now it is seen only in the introduction cutscenes. It is available to drive in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]].

A stumpy looking truck that was cut. It can be obtained through modifications and downloading save files.

Wrecked version of the [[Police Cruiser]]. It does not appear in any mission and can be spawned, driven and damaged like a normal vehicle.
