Twilight Sparkplug photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-18 02:53 | Well due to the name, and styling or such, I agree on it being the original Cobra. Now that I think about it. Listing multiple cars could get real complicated, real fast. | |

2016-10-18 02:33 | Well nearly all of the vehicles in Mafia III take influences from more than one vehicle, but its our job to find which one is most dominant. If both of you agree (as do I) that the Cobra is the closest of the several sports cars of the era that the Opus is based on, then we should list it as a Cobra. | |
Twilight Sparkplug photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-18 00:29 | Well I agree with that, Its just too bad there is no way to list cars that have had clear influence on said game car. | |
Mel photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-18 00:00 | I'm aware that the rest of the car is completely different from the Jensen. I wasn't implying the 541 was the primary basis for the car. I was just saying the front end in particular is nearly identical. Generally speaking, the Opus appears to be a combination of various 1960s sports cars. From the Jensen's front end, the Austin-Healey's two-tone paint scheme, the AC Cobra's coke bottle design, etc. The Cobra's front end is also pretty similar to this car's front, but I still think the Jensen is a bit closer when you consider the front bumper's design as well as the size and shape of the grille. With that being said, it's a bit difficult to say what car specifically the Opus is based on, but I have a feeling the Cobra is probably the closest we'll get. | |
Twilight Sparkplug photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-17 20:47 | Zordid a écrit but the rear is entirely different... Also from a little looking into this, It apears that it was never made as a convertible, Or roadster. and according to the Jensen wiki only Two were converted into Convertible Coupes. I'm going to say the whole car looks like a mixture between a Cobra, and a Ferrari 250 Spyder, Look that up and the rear is rather close. -- Last edit: 2016-10-17 20:51:23 | |

2016-10-17 13:02 | It's not a 58' Dodge Coronet, and neither is the Protector. The front is 59' Dodge Custom Royal sedan, the body is 1958 Desoto Fireflite. The 58' Coronet is a completely different car, the Viscount. | |

2016-10-17 07:49 | Razor440 a écrit Didn't say it looked like one (recently), just said it was big like one. The grill is much closer to a Polara. And it's a hell of a lot more slab sided than a Coronet so it makes to sense to list it as a Polara rather than a Coronet. It's not either of them. It's a 1967 Rambler (not AMC until 1968) Rebel SST: i1.wp.com/www.curbsideclassic.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Rambler-Rebel-03.jpg This car's front is flatter, but nearly everything else is spot on. The greenhouse (on both coupe and convertible), the line below the beltline, the slight coke bottle shape, etc. The taillights/rear are very similar as well, just with the Rebel's horizontal slots made vertical (still two on either side though). -- Last edit: 2016-10-17 07:50:00 | |
Mel photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-17 05:51 | I'm sorry, but I'm convinced that the whole front end of this car was directly lifted from the Jensen 541. The only real difference being that they replaced the Jensen's "grille flap" with a proper grille. www.joc.org.uk/images/541R.jpg | |

2016-10-17 05:27 | Maxine a écrit This happen to anybody else? I died and got a black one when I respawned. I had it happen with the Stallion. It happens with all the DLC cars when you die/respawn I think. | |
Maxine photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-16 17:37 | It still has a long hood. forums.justoldtrucks.com/uploads/images/c7bfecdf-b135-4a8f-a5e6-0331.jpg seems a 6500 series but.. I cant find ANY Military type stuff, Or even one thats been made to look like one.. Nothing. Maybe they just re-used the model to make something quick? I dunno, seems odd to use something that never was but thats that. | |
Maxine photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-16 17:24 | LeakyLine a écrit There's a unique variant of this car used by the Southern Union to traffic PCP around Frisco Fields. It's green and white instead of yellow. Ah thats what that was, I found it by accident before I even got to that part of the game. From the distance I thought it was an older cop car. paked up outside a house. -- Last edit: 2016-10-16 17:24:25 | |

Razor440 photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-16 08:25 | patridam a écrit Considering they are on the car in its advertisements (in the playboy magazines), they aren't aftermarket accessories. They are, more likely, a poorly researched imitation of the slotted headlight covers on 1969 Camaro RS models: st.hotrod.com/uploads/sites/21/2012/04/mscp-1110-1969-chevy-camaro-rs-ordinary-to-legendary-01.jpg Or they just put on square headlights because they looked cool. | |
Razor440 photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-16 08:12 | patridam a écrit This looks absolutely NOTHING like a 68' Polara. www.440magnum.com/mopars/2003/january/images/1970dodpolara500a.jpg I'll agree, it is pretty big and is the size of a full size car rather than an intermediate. But it is much curvier than the Polara, which is is all flat planes and straight edges. It is a Coronet or a Rebel inflated by 20%, not a Polara. Anyway, worth noting that, full size or not, this is a performance/muscle car in the context of the game - it has a 4 speed manual instead of the 3 speeds in most of the other cars, and it gets to 60 in under 7 seconds. Didn't say it looked like one (recently), just said it was big like one. The grill is much closer to a Polara. And it's a hell of a lot more slab sided than a Coronet so it makes to sense to list it as a Polara rather than a Coronet. | |

The grille was changed to be much more similar to the Chevy: static.cargurus.com/images/site/2007/08/21/21/26/1953_chevrolet_bel_air-pic-27885-640x480.jpeg | |

2016-10-16 03:48 | edw8 a écrit Whats up with the quad rectangular headlamps? I guess it is supposed to be aftermarket accessories? Rectangular headlights weren't allowed on cars in the US until 1975. Considering they are on the car in its advertisements (in the playboy magazines), they aren't aftermarket accessories.

2016-10-15 04:08 | uglyman323 a écrit i agree! in GTA Series there is a muscle car with same name and both of those games is also based in the Ford Mustang. GTA's Stallion is based off of an Oldsmobile Cutlass. Only the name has to do with Mustangs. SolanaBogon a écrit A Mustang with the old Mini rims?

2016-10-12 18:54 | I don't think it is a Loadstar. The loadstar's hood is too short compared to this truck. It could be a Fleetstar, or a Dimaond Reo or a Brockway. | |
alatriste2003 photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-12 17:39 | patridam a écrit How'd you get it to be black? Honestly, I don't know. It respawn in that colour after doing a mission.

2016-10-12 16:09 | Nah, it's definitely a Loadstar. Though, the texture of the grille reminds me of a much more modern Mack R-Series, just stretched downwards. | |

They are all ficitonal, like the cars in previous Mafia games and games like Grand Theft Auto. They are based on real cars, but man things are changed. | |

Sharky photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-12 11:34 | Alright, so you can actually drive this thing. You have to really, really, REALLY piss off the cops until they start showing up in these things, then run up and hop in before the cops kill you. If you die after you've started driving the truck, you'll respawn with one. | |
Renz203 photo_librarymode_comment 2016-10-12 09:19 | Sharky a écrit God did they ever fuck up the vehicle manufacturers in this. Why the fuck is the Mafia universe equivalent of Buick making a Honda/Datsun? Actually, Buick does makes rebadged Japanese cars, and that's the Buick Opel. and the Buick Opel is actually an Isuzu Gemini. (which one of the generations of the Gemini is called an I-Mark and Stylus in USA an Canada) more informations: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isuzu_Gemini | |

2016-10-12 03:16 | Looking at the front end, the grille appears to be a hybrid of the Torino GT's hidden headlights and the Torino Cobra's chrome strip across the grille. Images for comparison...
