I think the Infernus is a mix between a Lamborghini and a Pagani Zonda. The front end looks Lambo, and the back end with that tailpipe configuration is definitely a Zonda. The taxi's look like Impalas and Crown Vics.

The Primo Albany is the 92 to 9... Cadillac STS (formerly the Seville Touring Sedan) and a rather nice car. I like the favoritism level of Cadillacs in Rockstar's games and they look so much better now. I've owned three Cadillacs in all... my best was a $4000 Eldorado Biarritz with the brushed aluminum roof cap, padded sail panels and red tufted leather, with digital dash (1984) I was after a convertible Eldo 84/85 when I bought my 1989 convertible Firebird Formula (not in the game, instead we have the T-top Optioned Chevy Camaro 3rd gen car!!)) that's an '89 ASC modified vert from the dealer. I paid $8600 dollars for that car!

As do the Police cars.

 

If I remember rightly there are 2 kinds of Police Car but 3 kinds of Taxi.

This list has already been started here on the boards, as well as an in game brand grouping.

 

Some corrections:

 

The Uranus is a 1986ish Ford Escort Ext or a similar yeared Mustang, they have similar stylings

 

---------------------------------

There are 4 Taxis:

 

A Merit based Taxi -- also the same car at the Police Patrol

A Crown Vic based Taxi -- also the same as the Police Cruiser -- no matching normal car in game (the Washington is a newer model lincoln/Crown vic, etc..)

A Minivan "Cabbie"

And a FlyUS airport taxi based on the Feroci

 

----------------------------------

The SuperGT is more of a Ferrari 612 Scagietti -- only the headlights looks like an aston martin, the 612 has the grill and the body matches better. They're similar in overall shape, but the rear end clearly makes it the Ferrari

 

----------------------------------

The Blista Compact is a returning car, and its still a 1990 Honda CRX

 

----------------------------------

The Contender looks nothing like a Dodge Ram -- It looks most like a Ford Explorer Sports Trac or a Chevrolet Avalanche

 

 

 

 

 

If you could combine with this topic: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=336035 we'd have a nice cars database.. and we can work on filling in the voids

 

also some useful stuff here: http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=337700&hl=

 

 

 

 

 

So, what's the name of the Lexus RX SUV in the game?

Habanero, pretty rare

So, they all share similar body molding, etc... so the Uranus looks somewhat like all of them, but it closest resembles the EXP

With regards to the bikes.

 

(Well, the two decent ones anyway)

 

The PCJ-600 resembles either a Honda Hornet 600, or a Triumph street triple. And possibly a Ducati monster 750 in yellow with the single headlight.

 

The NRG comes in two guises. The first (With large single headlight) resembles an older model Kawasaki ZX-9R. Whilst the second (With stacked projector headlights) resembles an 05' Suzuki GSXR1000, merged with a Ducati 999.

 

Single exhaust and 4 stroke whail leads me more towards the Suzuki.

This is a caravan, which someone labelled against the Minivan. Perhaps they are both Caravans? Old and new gen?

The Turismo is definitely an F430. I think the SuperGT looks more like a DBS9 than a Vanquish, but they look so similar it's barely even worth noting.

 

The Infernus is definitely influenced by the Murcielago. The back looks slightly Gallardo-Zondaish, though.

The Marbelle (IIRC) is a Ford LTD or Granada from the 70s.

Seems to have Lincoln full-bar tail lights though. The key in design was to mix different elements

But keeping the influence of each real car intact.

 

The Vigero V is a 69 Camaro body with a possible Barracuda rear tail-light section and a somewhat Dodge style grille (or American Motors?... Most notable, the sides' angles of the vertical sections outside the headlights (front fender blades)) I know I've seen it before but can't place it exactly. monocle.gif

Not to me, I think we clearly need to compare them side to side. I noted the resemblence upon buying the game, it was so obvious to me. The 5.0 liter 'Stang of the 80s was always being pitted up against 3rd gen Camaros and Firebirds, but we then got the 350 Tuned Port V8 from the Corvette and shot it back down again. I like the new Mustangs however. That one had no looks or feel to it. fun to ram the hell out of 'em in the game

Technically in the history of Cadillac, the LaSalle was also used and Fleetwood interchanged with LaSalle and Seville/Deville.... It becomes somewhat confusing if you look at the post war cars' history of model names change.

 

Emperor - Cadillac Deville -Nah, a Fletwood

Enus Cognoscenti - Maybach 62 / Bentley Flying Spur

Esperanto - Cadillac Eldorado - f*ck no, It's something like 82 Seville.

 

 

Haven't seen the Esperanto recently to tell you my opinion, but keeping an eye out. the 82 Seville was the "bustle-back" designed off the same assembly line sheet metal as the 79-85 eldorado, both designed by GM man, Wayne Kady
