The Uranus is an 80s mustang. I just saw one today and then the first car I found in the game was a Uranus. Perfect match.
 
Landstalker is in the game but i dont know what car it looks like, but you can add it to the list. BTW its a SUV
 
In the list - The Schafter isn't a C-class I don't think, it's more like an S-class. If you go online in the Tw@ internet cafes there's a car dealer ad and it says the car is a V12, so definitely seems more of an S-class.

Size-wise I'd say definately more C Class.

I'm pretty sure the always used to be Toyota Landcruisers in older games. Does it look like one of them?
 
one thing I've noticed is that taxis and police cars both have impala and crown victoria versions.

Marbelle-older lincoln town car with some old chrysler as well.
moonbeam- carbon copy astro van
the sabre GT is definitely mostly cutlass/442
I don't know where Mustang came from I would say the Stallion looks more like an old Monte Carlo

EDIT: whoops double post
 
I always thought the Chavos was a little bit like a Skyline...or am I thinking of something else? The front has angel eyes if I remember correctly, but the back looks like nothing else.
 
Turns it out was right afterall

Uranus is a Ford Escort (Cosworth)

I put Cosworth in parentheses since there is also the regular version under the same name.

edit: The Sabre GT looks like a 1969-72 Oldsmobile 442
 
Stratum - Front half, all the way to the end of the rear doors is a Nissan Skyline R32, they put some random wagon rear end on it though.....
Think you missed this when updating the list.... its definitely an R32 Skyline with a wagon rear end:)
 
Anyone know what the Buccaneer is? It's a big V8 car that I jacked in Times Square.
 
The Stagea didn't have any visual similarities with the R33 GT-R of the time though.

The NRG 900 is based on a Ducati 999R is it not? Same front.

Can you put photos of all the cars in the first post, Danachronism? I'm sure we can all supply some pics taken ourselves.
 
Yes, if there were photos of the cars in this thread, we could all indetify them much more easily.
 
I don't know whether I'm stating the obvious here, but... is the Landstalker not the Toyota Landcruiser Amazon (Or Lexus LX in the States)?

I'm sure it looked similar when I stole one a while back, and the name is a bit of a dead giveaway... It's name on the full list hasn't been filled in so I'm assuming nobody else has got it yet.

*Edit* Oh, it appears I did miss something...

So yes, I agree :P
 
The Bobcat wouldn't be under Commercial would it?

Course not.

Also, the NRG900 doesn't have the Ducati front. Looks more like an old honda or something with the square light.

The buccaneer is a '72 Monte Carlo, too. The Sabre must be a cutlass or something... I'll let you know when I come across one.

edit: Yes, the Sabre and Sabre GT is an Oldsmobile Cutlass. I mean, come on... Cutlass:Sabre. The Sabre is an 80s one and the GT is the 70s version. The Buccaneer is definitely the Monte Carlo

Hmmm, what's the bike with the two vertically mounted headlights then? I was riding them with Alex and some other guys the other night.

Yeah, I've seen that one too. I don't know the name of it though. Is that the PCJ?
 
Sultan - Impreza / Evo
Sultan RS - Modified Evo with flairs and body kit

BTW Sultan RS is awesome!
