The first Esperanto is a real land yacht, longer and with worse handling than it's successors in Vice City and San Andreas.

The Yakuza version of the Stinger isn't actually as quick as the normal one but is easier to handle.

The Stretch can be found on the streets of Staunton Island and comes in two colours, white and grey. There is also a black version that belongs to the Leone Crime Family and is used in two of the Mafia missions in Portland.

The second image is from a cutscene in the mission "Salvatore's Called a Meeting", showing the inside of Joey Leone's garage. In the background is the BF Injection he is working on.

Appears in the final storyline mission "End of the Line" where you must take control of one to ram through the wall of the Crack Fortress to get inside. Another one appears during the mission but this is the only time in the whole game you'll see these armoured cars. The turret on top is a water cannon.

The GTA1 Stallion was clearly a Mustang, but this is a bit of a mix of different things. On other games in the GTA series this has been listed a Pontiac GTO but I really don't see much resemblance. The speed and handling of the Stallion varies throughout the games, in GTA3 the handling is quite bad, it fishtails like hell, but in San Andreas it is more sporty.

That's right. In the game's storyline you start your criminal career in Liberty City (which resembles New York even closer in this game) and after completing the second level "Heist Almighty", mob boss Bubby sends you to San Andreas (vaguely resembling San Francisco) because you've brought too much heat on yourself from your sucess in crime. Then in the cartoon cut-scene at end of Level 4 "Tequila Slammer", homosexual hispanic gang leader El Burro (who reappears in GTA3, even if it's in voice only), wearing nothing but a waistcoat, tells you he's now going to 'personally' reward you for your sucess (and you'll find out why he's known as "The Donkey"). In the next level "Bent Cop Blues", you are now in Vice City (Miami) under the thumb of highly corrupt narcotics officer Deever. I always imagined that your character flees San Andreas to avoid being sodomised by El Burro. Sorry if that sounds homophobic, but when you get to actually see him in the cut-scene, you'd understand why anyone would want avoid getting intimate with this guy. Although the funny thing is you can actually choose a female profile for your character so that would spoil the subplot of El Burro lusting after you (and calling you "pretty boy"). In fact, despite that when you start the game, out of 8 character profile mugshots to choose from 4 of them are women, the in-game dialogue often assumes you are male, to be honest this is more of a boy's game, though there's no reason why girls can't enjoy it.

Although the LTD Crown Victoria is more common as a Taxi, it still has the name "Portsmouth" which suggest it was named after a Plymouth car (both are English port towns). Although shouldn't this be a Gran Fury rather than a Caravelle?
