The Blade

[~Joseph~]

I know its supposed to be a drag car, but I wish they would let us lower the front end. I really like this car but for the look I want for it the raised front end wouldn't look right. I'm not complaining I love all the new cars. Anyone else agree?

[kjahcleveland]

It looks great to me. Only Hipster car I bought so far.

[~Joseph~]

Yeah It looks great to be too but I wish you could lower the front end.

[Iroquois]

Its intentionally like that. See buick special to compare.

[007Nick700]

It's a gasser style drag car, it's supposed to look like that. Google it and you'll see.

[JordCorner]

I understand the "style" but it throws the entire car off balance.

 

It's gross.

[GTP_Matt]

I love it...and I left it unlowered like a real Gasser should be!

[Dottie]

I made mine have the gasser look with grey matte paint with a brushed steel secondary

i really wanted the car to be longer though

[Zondar]

It's got the best grip and acceleration of any of the muscles , but is probably the worst car for understeer in the whole game. That's my first impressions anyway.

Makes it kinda fun, but doubt I'd want to own one.

[crashhat69]

is it just me or does the blade have better handling on SP?

[Chronolemon]

Its known as gasser style, and I love that its in GTA. I wish I could make my Tornado a gasser.

[Spade115]

They put this car in, with no intention of lowering the front. (Plenty of other cars for that) I love the stance.

I think the Blade strongly resembles my real-life car (1964 Ford Falcon Sprint). My car sits low in the rear from the factory, so I installed 2" overstock leafs in the rear. I really wish the car in the game sat like mine in real life...but I guess I can't complain. Who woulda thought they'd use it in the first place!

Beautiful car man. what motor are you running? Ive been picking on the wife to raise her little 02 beetle to "Gas" it. lol

Thanks for the compliment. Took a lot of hard work and saving to get her where she's at. I got a 260 in it, mild cam, edelbrock 289 intake, holley 600, and flowmaster 40's on it. 4 speed manual. Not a rocket, but it does have plenty of power, and sounds good as well.

I thought the blade was a full on lowrider in San Andreas? Was hoping itd be more like that, instead of some bullsh*t drag car.

 

Bit disappointed in it tbh, definitely not the pick of the bunch from Hipster DLC, those honours go to the old skyline bluebird & the smart car. Epic!

[bomexsaturn]

I'm glad it's a 2 door. The description on the website says its a 4 door lol.

[Argonaut]

Be grateful that the drag-like acceleration is in.. Damn that thing shifts well.

[SabreVC]

You guys can't just do the lowering glitch on it?

this car does haul. handles like a broken wheel shopping cart though

[SabreVC]

Does the car blow up or it just doesn't lower?

[KiTTYReCkless]

Shoot the front rims until it lowers. I love the stance it has stock. I would never think to lower mine.
