2015-08-12 15:38 | vocal95 wrote When the first GTA V trailer was reveiled, some cars were listed along with their fictional names, even though no one was sure if that's how they're really called. Some assumptions were correct (like the Imponte Phoenix) some not (Baller was listed as 'Vapid Huntley' and Surfer was listed as 'Camper'). Anyway, as the car is based on Chevrolet Corvette, I think that we can temporarily list it as 'Shubert Frigate' and if it turns out that's not the real name, change it after the release. Well, that is interesting, I didnt payed much attention to GTA V for a long time (because I wanted to be suprised), so I didnt really payed attention to IGCD page aswell. In that case, we can change it. | |

There is nothing explicitly saying that this is Frigate, but yes, front is based on C3.

2015-08-11 12:08 | Yeah, front is wedge shaped like C3, but back is less muscled as Vette, and it looks like Camaro/Firebird. | |

2015-08-10 16:48 | The rear picture is here, I still say 1967 AMC Rambler Rebel, and to get a convertible it'd have to be SST trim. | |

2015-08-10 16:47 | Specifically a Scout 800A, made from 1968 to 1970. Based on the setting of the game, a 1968 International Harvester Scout 800A. | |

2015-08-09 23:15 | chesty wrote Listen here Jack the car year is 1964 Imperial and Chrysler were separate marques when Chrysler acquired Imperial the car was rebadged Chrysler created the Imperial marque in 1955 and retained ownership until its demise in 1983. Before and after that period, the Imperial was a Chrysler model. | |

Xenotime 2015-08-09 20:55 | Rockeroller wrote None of you need to address any comments to me since I OWN a Chrysler Imperial. Imperial is a step up from a regular Chrysler.

Your comment gave me cancer, please educate yourself: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chrysler_Imperial#1955.E2.80.931983:_A_separate_make en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imperial_%28automobile%29 Just because you own one doesn't mean you have all the knowledge about them, and since "your" Imperial say 'Chrysler' on the hood , then it's either a pre '55 or maybe post '75 Imperial, or its just a normal Chrysler and you think it's an Imperial........... | |
GroupB
2015-08-08 19:12 | For 1955-75 and 1981-83, Imperial is the make. For 1990-93, Chrysler is the make. | |

2015-08-08 17:31 | yes, but the cutlass has a unqiue rounded quarter window and fender flares that the pontiacs, chevys and buicks dont, but the car in question has. just sayin' | |

Their profiles are very similar: theselvedgeyard.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/1234482100_1968_pontiac_gto_right_side.jpg?w=700 Also, the interior (if you believe the trailer, although it is pre-rendered) is like a 66-67 GTO. | |

2015-08-08 17:01 | It has the taillights/rear of a first gen Camaro; and a front not unlike a 69' charger (the foglights and grille, though it lacks the split; and the hood scoop). The C-pillar swoop, rims, and interior are from 68' pontiac midsizer, such as a GTO. It's the most deliberately mixed up car in the game because it has the biggest role; being Lincoln's personal car. It's honestly bordering on made for game, but the overall effect is most like a GTO. | |

2015-08-08 16:13 | Shape of rear window reseamble Nissan/Datsun, but rest is more like Toyota. | |

2015-08-08 16:05 | I'd say Nissan 240z but the game sets in 1969 where 240z released to the public in 1970... oh boy , it's like Bullet from GTA San Andreas. | |

2015-08-08 14:44 | Xenotime wrote Keep in mind that cars in this game is not licensed and usually mashups of design cues from different models/years. But front looks for sure more like 1964. Rest of the body didnt change that much, I checked it at google. -- Last edit: 2015-08-08 15:04:51 | |

2015-08-08 14:40 | Now with that front wiew it looks (front only) like Camaro without lights... This is going to be hard one, but Toronado rear part is more accurate than GTO, you have good guess. | |

Xenotime 2015-08-08 09:51 | It kinda looks like 1968 Coronet with 1960 DeSoto front end. But well, picture is rather blurry, so let's wait for more detailed trailers/gameplay trailers or even the final release of the game... | |

Imperial was made between 1955 and 1975, plus made brief comeback in 1981-1983. Owners of Imperials tend to call them Chryslers, but it is same as you call your car Ford Mercury.

2015-08-07 12:45 | Most definitely is NOT a " chevrolet" . It DOES look like a 1963 buick riviera with chevrolet tail lights added on. |
