ha i always liked the stinger in the GTA games. With the Yakuza one in GTA3 and the brilliant 80's model in Vice. I was really disappointed when they took it out of San Andreas.

Oh Snap, No Wonder I couldn't find that Car..I didn't know they took out the stinger in San Andreas...:(
I thought the bansee looked Ridiculuse in Vice City, so different from the other gta games.

They made the banshee look alot more 80's style. Because the other banshee didnt really fit in.

It is definitelly a fact that there will be a few new vehicles in the game. But No matter what new cars comes out, the Infernus will allways be my favorite car.:)

Infernus. No doubt.
I would agree that it is a bit overrated as of now, but it's fast. There's really nothing you can do about it.
But I have a feeling there are going to be quite a few new cars in VCS, lots of which are sports cars, possibly quicker than the Infernus, that will surprise us.

I loved cheetah and stinger in Vice City so probably those.
My favourite was the Cheetah in Vice it had nice handling and the infurnus was good to. I also hope Rock* address the handling on the bikes to so we can go faster when weaving in and out of traffic and throught side streets in a police chase.

Sabre Turbo indeed. Maybe a car like bullet in San Andreas, or an car truk like Dune or what it`s named in SA. The big monster truck kinda thing you can overun and destroy other cars with. The one you get from the Quarry-missions you know.

The VC banshee I thought was pretty awesome. It looked like an Corvette without the popup headlights.
I would like to see the buffalo in VCS. Like an earlier version of it or something. Maybe it could have T-tops like some camaros and firebirds had.
80's GTA environment is all about the Infernus (Lamborghini) and the Cheetah (Ferrari).

Of course it was gonna be. The other Banshee seen in all the other GTA games is based on a late 90's Dodge Viper. The VC version is based on an 80's Corvette which was a much more appropriate car for the time.

Right, seeing as the Viper didn't come into production until the 1992 model year (ding ding! - it was in SA -- 1992).
I think the ultimate car if the 1980's was the DeLorean DMC-12, or simply known as, The DeLorean. I've been lucky enough to see a couple of these in my lifetime. Since it was produced in 1981, 1982 and very few in 1983, I'd like to see this car as an unlockable car in VCS (meaning it spawns in only one place, it cannot be found on the streets like other production vehicles).

So pretty much like it was in Vice City. It only spawned in Sunshine Autos after you collected the first list of cars. It would be really weird seeing the Deluxo (GTA's version of the Delorian) driving around the streets.

It was called a Dumper and it would just be too big for VC i think , a thing i would like to see in VCS is the ability to have turbo boost on bikes as well as the cars for doing stunts and normal jumps.

The Deluxo looks a little bit like the DeLorean, but the spoiler and muscular engine sound ruined it for me. The DeLorean was supplied with an underpowered Renault V6 engine crammed behind the seats to make it more of a mid-engine/rear wheel drive car. But yes, the car dealership thing would be nice, I just don't want see the car spawning everywhere if it was in-game.

I DROVE one once. In all honesty? Surprisingly nice car to drive. It was really more of a touring car than a sportscar. It doesn't really have the power to be a sportscar. The engine's pretty weak. But I could live with that. It was just a nice car to drive, very comfortable, plenty of room up front, good if not great handling.

DeLorean is like the most famous car of all time though thanks to Back To the Future, haha.
