Deluxo


 * GTA deluxo.jpg"The future is here, and it has gull-wing doors. Never again must you choose between the drama of the open road and the majesty of flight. Never again will you feel that lurch of panic as you accidentally drive over a cliff. At the click of a button, you will soar over trees, mountains, sharks, the slack-jawed competition, and anything else you choose. Please note: this vehicle can be modified at a Vehicle Workshop inside an Avenger or Mobile Operations Center."

The Deluxo is a sports car appearing in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of The Doomsday Heist update. It is manufactured by Imponte in the HD Universe.

The Deluxo is based on the DeLorean DMC-12, although various differences may be noted, including tail lights more reminiscent of Ferrari's dual circular tail lights from many of its 1970s and 1980s models, headlights and body shape similar to those of a Renault Alpine GTA/A610, and a wider spectrum of body colors. The Deluxo also resembles an 1980-91 Audi Quattro, and like the Quattro, it also has a front-engine, all-wheel drive drivetrain. There also appears to be resemblances of the 1990-94 Volkswagen Corrado, particularly the shape.

The Deluxo is easily distinguished by its compact design, featuring a small splitter and a central intake below a black front bumper, while the area above it has rectangular headlights and silver details on the sloped center. The sides have flared arches and a slanted rear section, with triangle-shaped rear quarter windows. The rear has a black section with four circular lights and the same silver details as the front. Two exhaust pipes can be seen below the rear bumper.

The car always spawns with a spoiler and four different colors applied on the entire body.

The Deluxo returns with a design much closer to the DeLorean DMC-12, but having slight styling modifications similar to the Lancia Montecarlo. The wedge shape of the front is similar to the first generation Isuzu Piazza, while the styling of the front fascia is derived from the 1987-88 Pontiac 6000 and the rear end features tail lights similar to those of the Nissan 300ZX (Z31). The vehicle gains the ability to fly, making it similar to its fictional iteration from the Back To The Future series, the DeLorean time machine, though lacking the characteristic devices on the rear.

The car retains the overall body shape and features from the 3D Universe renditions, but is more narrower and flatter. The front features a black extender with a wide intake on the center, while the bumper features a plastic detail spanning the whole bumper's width and a set of two amber square turn lights on the outer edges. The upper section is flat and features a small grille bearing the corresponding badges and two rectangular headlights. The hood hinges from the front and opens to reveal a small luggage compartment inside.

On the sides, the car uses plastic details running through the sides, as well as black side skirts. The greenhouse area follows the same sloped rear shape as the 3D Universe renditions, though it makes use of butterfly doors with a unique hydraulic sound when opened. A glass hatch is seen on the rear.

The rear of the car features a black panel containing the silver badges and a license plate, as well as a set of tail lights consisting of one upper unit and three lower units, separated by a black horizontal detail. The lower area is occupied by a flat rear bumper with various vented details and a black extender, while two exhaust pipes can be seen below, on either side.

The interior of the car uses a large dial cluster in a similar way to cars like the Turismo Classic and the Cheetah Classic. However, it uses a black background with a green grid pattern for the main dials and the small gauges, with the warning lights displayed on squared details. The dashboard also has two rectangular aircon units on the edges and an horizontal vented unit on the center, while the radio set is visible on the central console. The inner portions of the seats and the central section where the handbrake is seen have unique red/green striped textures passing over. The steering wheel bears the Imponte logo on it. Interestingly, the Deluxo is stated in the files to use the same dials and part of the interior textures from the Sentinel Classic, a sports car which was featured later.

The car has the ability to switch between car mode and hover/flyer mode, which can be transitioned at any time. It features various functional components that do not seem to have fully-rendered storage spaces inside the vehicle; they merely disappear into the car's bodywork when stowed. When transitioning from car to hover/flyer mode, the wheels fold up and a rear hatch opens to reveal multiple square-shaped thrusters for forward propulsion, while thrust heat can be seen coming from the wheel wells. When When pushed upwards, four small wings are deployed from the front extender and the side skirts before bending upwards to form winglets, intended to provide lift. When transitioning back to car mode, all of the hovering components are stored back and the wheels are lined up again.

The primary color of the car is applied on the bodywork, while the secondary color is applied on the upper portions of the front and rear ends. A trim color is also available for the interior. It uses a set of wire rims resembling the ones from the DeLorean DMC-12, with the rear wheels being larger.
