As anticipation builds for Grand Theft Auto 6, fans speculate about the return of iconic vehicles from GTA Online.
However, there’s a notable contender that may not make the cut – the Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT.
Let’s delve into why this fast-paced, yet unpopular, armored sports car might not hit the streets of GTA 6.
The Hype Around Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT
Introduced in 2023 with the Mercenaries update, the Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT initially caught attention for its mind-blowing top speed of 168.50 mph after HSW modification.
Despite the speed, it failed to secure a top spot due to its lackluster appearance and tricky handling.
Looks vs. Performance: The Dilemma
While Rockstar Games bestowed a 79.29 handling rating on the Stinger TT, players found its handling less than stellar.
Even minor bumps led to uncontrollable skidding, making it an undesirable choice for races.
Adding insult to injury, the hefty price tag of $2,380,000, along with an extra $1,418,000 for HSW upgrades exclusive to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, deterred players from embracing this armored speedster.
Missed Essence: Real-Life Inspiration vs. Virtual Reality
Drawing inspiration from the real-life Ferrari Roma, the Stinger TT falls short in capturing the essence of its counterpart.
Its bulky and cumbersome feel, quite unlike the sleek sports car it’s modeled after, hinders its performance in handling.
Players lean towards alternatives like the Penaud La Coureuse, which offers better handling, speed, and affordability.
The Imani Tech Upgrade: A Desperate Fix?
While the Imani Tech upgrade attempts to salvage the Stinger TT’s reputation, GTA Online boasts a plethora of superior options.
A significant overhaul is necessary for this vehicle to stand a chance in the competitive world of Grand Theft Auto 6.
Conclusion: A Plea for Better Alternatives in GTA 6
As fans eagerly await GTA 6’s 2025 release, many express reluctance to see the Grotti Itali GTO Stinger TT included.
Grand Theft Auto 5 and its online multiplayer counterpart offer a diverse range of vehicles that have earned their place, leaving fans hopeful for more exciting revelations in the upcoming GTA 6 trailer 2.
