I agree with most of these, though the BF Injection is not a VW Beetle. It looks more like a Meyers Manx.

"Infernus: Jaguar XJ220."

"Sentinel & Mafia Sentinel: BMW 3 Series E36."

 

These are what I disagree with.

 

"Stinger & Yakuza Stinger: Toyota MR2."

 

I'd add to this.

 

The Infernus looks more like a Ferrari F50/Vector M12 hybrid.

Also, I'm not an expert on BMWs but I'd say the Sentinel would be closer to the 5 series E34 than any 3 series.

The Stinger, although I agree it represents a third gen MR2, I'd also say it has some influence from the first gen Porsche Boxster.

E- Not a bad list, though. :)

I would also say the LCS Kuruma more closely resembles a Opel/Vauxhall Vectra than any Chrysler.

The GTAIII Sentinel IMO, more closely resembles a E36 3 Series than a E34 5 Series. The taillights however, are carried over from the E34.

That's a hotrod!. The BF Injection's a Dune Buggy!.
