The PMP 600 closely resembles a [[wp:Chrysler 300#300C|Chrysler 300C]]; it is manufactured by [[Schyster]], the [[Grand Theft Auto|GTA]] equivalent of Chrysler. The intake on the bottom of the front bumper seems inspired by the 2003-present Bentley Continental. All PMP 600s come with car alarms, identifiable by either a horn alarm (the most common), flashing lights, or a beep alarm.

The car's "PMP" name may be derived from the term "pimp".
According to the [[Autoeroticar.com|Autoeroticar]] website, the PMP 600 has an absurdly large 600 cubic inch (9.8L) diesel V8 "Semi" engine, hence the "600" in the car's name; "Semi" is a reference to the Chrysler 300C's real-life "Hemi" engine. The car handles through corners reasonably well, but suffers at high speeds due to the length and the soft rear suspension. Acceleration is satisfying, although the top speed is limited due to the heavy weight of the car (145 km/h, 90 mph).

The Schyster PMP 600 is a 4-door car featured in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Description

The PMP 600 closely resembles a Chrysler 300C; it is manufactured by Schyster, the GTA equivalent of Chrysler. The intake on the bottom of the front bumper seems inspired by the 2003-present Bentley Continental. All PMP 600s come with car alarms, identifiable by either a horn alarm (the most common), flashing lights, or a beep alarm.

According to the Autoeroticar website, the PMP 600 has an absurdly large 600 cubic inch (9.8L) diesel V8 "Semi" engine, hence the "600" in the car's name; "Semi" is a reference to the Chrysler 300C's real-life "Hemi" engine. The car handles through corners reasonably well, but suffers at high speeds due to the length and the soft rear suspension. Acceleration is satisfying, although the top speed is limited due to the heavy weight of the car (145 km/h, 90 mph).

Variants

"Sport edition"
  • A sport edition of the PMP 600 can be occasionally been seen on the streets; it usually sports a very dark black, plum or blue paint job, a sport mesh grill in the front, and a small spoiler attached to the trunk. It is often driven by the Mafia.
  • Six PMP 600s presumably belonging to the Jewish Mob can be found outside the The Libertonian during the mission "Museum Piece"; three are black and three are white. Interestingly, these PMP 600 bears the both PMP grilles at the same time by mistake. If the player user a trainer to remove and add accessories, both of the grill accessories can be removed.

Trivia

  • The car's "PMP" name may be derived from the term "pimp".
  • The interior of the PMP 600 seems to be ripped from the Schafter, as the steering wheel bears the Benefactor logo, also the logo and dashboard instruments (tachometer, speedometer, odometer and fuel gauge) are less blurred than in Schafter. These features can be seen with using first-person mods.
  • If the player takes a PMP 600 to a Pay 'n' Spray too many times it will turn a unique, dark teal colour. This colour will then be permanent, and no amount of subsequent resprays will change it.
