The Yardie Lobo is a lowrider with functional hydraulic suspensions, leopard skin seats and sporty rims, as well as a pair of pink fuzzy dice hung from the rear-view mirror, and red interior door panels. It also appears with only a red body color and a yellow soft top in GTA III and GTA Liberty City Stories, or a green body with a yellow top in GTA Advance. The vehicle resembles a [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/94/73_Impala.jpg fifth generation Chevrolet Impala] and the taillights seem closer to a [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/50/65_Impala_SS_convt.jpg 1965 Impala]. Like other sedan and station wagon-based gang cars in the GTA Liberty City Stories, the game's Lobo also gains a sport car-like engine sound, implying it is a high-performance car. | The Yardie Lobo is a lowrider with functional hydraulic suspensions, leopard skin seats and sporty rims, as well as a pair of pink fuzzy dice hung from the rear-view mirror, and red interior door panels.

Having only two doors, the Lobo can only seat two. The suspension set-up is mediocre, but when the height-rasing hydraulics are activated, the Lobo is prone to flipping over at the slightest bump. | ||
== Trivia == | |||
* In GTA III, the Yardie Lobo has a unique horn, a high-pitched variant of the [[Cheetah]]'s horn. However, it is only heard when an NPC pedestrian is driving the Lobo. | |||
** However, the same-sounding horn would be passed on to the [[Admiral]], a vehicle without hydraulics in GTA Vice City. | |||
