This has got to be one of the cars I'm most looking forward to.

 

What about you?

I have already decided that was going to be my car of choice, just I would like to see the back, could be ugly.

Also compared to the old sabres, that where based on the 1970 Buick Lesabre, or the GS, or GSX. This one looks similar, but less like its real life counterpart to the previous three.

that’s the GSX, you can see there is allot in common, apart from the front spoiler.

 

but still, think I might just steal a few of these.

I agree with you 100% thats what the front end looks like, but if you look at the side views with the big swooping rear fenders looks like a Olds 442

i got a question do you think this time around with the sabre turbo we will hear the turbo spool up and If is has a BOV will we hear that ?? b/c if they add this to the game it will make the car feel real

I don't actually think this car has a turbocharger in it as intended by R*. It's more of the naturally aspirated (if not then supercharged) type of car. Just because it has a turbo on the name doesnt mean it actually has a turbo. Kinda like the Gillette Mach 3 Turbo shaver... it doesnt really have a turbo on it... its just added on to sound sporty.

I thought Sabre's were based on Chevelles?

I did read that somewhere, it is a bit of a toss up, they are very similar. Apart from the obvious Sabre, LeSabre name change, you can tell the difference. If you look at the top of the front fender it has a 45-55 degree slice that get steeper and wider towards the back. also the Chevelles grill sticks out as the GSX sinks in. both are shown on the GTA4 Sabre. (actually I was looking at the side on pic, the slice on the gta4 Sabre nearly flattens out towards the back instead of getting steeper)

I have a GNX... I bought it when I was 16. It wasnt original though... it had a 454 crammed in it as opposed to the original engine... I still have the original wrapped up in a crate in the garage though... at least the owner wasn't dumb enough to get rid of it.

Didn't GNX, Cutlasses, 442s, and Chevelles of that era all share the same chassis and body stylings. I think Camaros could even be lumped in there together. GM made a lot of their 70s muscle cars share the same guts. Which made them very simular in length, weight, height, body stylings and such.

My insurance agent is also my uncle. biggrin.gif

 

yeah It's all black, matte black on black rims... with tinted windows. As I've done with most cars I've had I replaced all the emblems (saved them dont worry!) with a custom machined/molded and then chromed Pirate skull with crossbones embelem.

 

My plates also read "Pirate"

Heretic!!! Burn him!!!

And to be serious, it may be stylish, but it's a FAIL. Mount the original engine and emblems, and go for some 80's style chicks! cool.gif

Ok, since there is no "extreme blind Envy" smilie, I'll stick with congratulating you on your Sweet Ride. tounge2.gif

 

Treat it properly. As in, smoke the hell out of it where conditions permit. It wasn't meant for being coddled devil.gif

 

Do Chicks dig it? I imagine here they would, as US cars are rare, let alone a GNX...

The taxman would dig it too! lol.gifsuicidal.gif

Cant really explain it all that much... I have a strange affinity for Pirates... what can I say?

 

It's not intended to look stylish... it's intended to look and sound meaner than hell. And nothing says mean like a Pirate.
