The Panto name first debuted in GTA 2 in the form of a two-door microcar (occasionally confused as a van) akin to the [[Dementia]], but significantly larger. Its appearance alone makes the car generally unappealing, in contrast to larger, better designed cars in the game. The internal name given to the Panto is <code>FIAT</code>, implying the car's name originates from that of a similarly named [[wp:Fiat Punto|Fiat Punto]], but is otherwise of an original design.

The Panto was planned to reappear as a four-door compact sedan in GTA III, but was cut for unknown reasons. The car, like the Panto in GTA 2, bears some resemblance to a Fiat, specifically, a [[wp:Fiat 128|Fiat 128]]; little else is known about the car. A picture of the car can be found on the "Capital Auto Sale$" teaser website, along with many other beta vehicles [http://www.rockstargames.com/grandtheftauto3/flash/capitalAutos/].
