Feltzer

"This entry-level luxury car is for entry-level type guys - salesmen, marketing dorks, people at tech companies who want to feel like they've made it but they never really will. Show people what kind of man you want to be."

- Legendary Motorsport description.

The Feltzer is a two-door convertible sports car in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and the HD Universe (except in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars). Each renditions are meant to represent different generations of roadsters. It is manufactured by Benefactor in the HD Universe.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Feltzer is depicted as a compact German-style late 1980's luxury convertible, based on the (most likely the 380SL). The car also appears to bear a few elements with typical American classic sports cars, giving it some muscle car-like traits.

The design of the car is very traditional, with a boxy bodywork, square lamps and a rectangular grille. The Feltzer always spawns in its convertible form and can carry two occupants. It is only seen in a variety of single colours.

Grand Theft Auto IV
"Dark, sleek, and handsome... the Feltzer"

- Advertising slogan in GTA IV.

In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Benefactor Feltzer is based on the, but with a front facia similar to the smaller. The front lights are very similar to some early 2000s models, having a shape similar to that of a  and layout very similar to some of the earlier  models. The Brabus influences are mostly seen on the rims.

The Feltzer retains the two-door layout and generally small body from its previous iteration, but features a more areodynamic styling. The front of the car is quite dominated by the front bumper, having a central intake and two smaller ones next to it. The upper area is occupied by the grille and the silver headlamp housings, each one having an inner lamp, a larger outer lamp and a much smaller turn signal between. The bonnet follows the sloped profile and has elevated portions on the centre.

The sides feature flared wheel arches, medium-sized skirts and vertical chrome handles. The cabin area is distinctive by the black trim and coloured rear-view mirrors. Silver badges can be seen on the front fenders.

The rear assumes a more concave profile, with a boot lip, flat plate holder and large tail lamps. The rear bumper has a central vent and two slots for the square-shaped exhausts. Again, silver badges can be seen on the boot.

Feltzers may be seen with a folding hardtop (like the real life SLK), a soft-top, or with the top down. Some are equipped with a badgeless black mesh grille, while others feature a standard three-bar grille with a Benefactor emblem. The vehicle is only available in single colours. It uses a unique set of six-spoke rims wrapped in low-profile tyres.

The Feltzer is equipped with a GPS system with a female voice, but only if the player leaves the "selected cars" (default) option in the audio menu.

Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online
"It takes a certain type of special person to be able to handle a car like this. A trend-setter, an individual, a winner. The kind of risk-taker who goes after what they want without getting bogged down in the small print. Are you that person? Come to my showroom in Pillbox Hill and I will make you believe that you are. This car is HOT! It won’t last long at these highly competitive interest rates."

- Simeon Yetarian

The Feltzer returns in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, this time depicted as a customized sports car resembling the. The "GT Wing" modification gives the car a spoiler identical to that of the race version of the Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM, while the "Low Level Spoiler" option resembles the street version.

The Feltzer assumes a similar design to that of the GTA IV iteration, but appears to be more customized, with a wide body kit, sports bonnet, carbon-fibre parts, larger wheels, side exit exhausts. The headlights seem to be the only other change, looking quite similar to the Rebla's. Silver badgings can be seen on the boot and the rear fenders.

The car is only painted with a single color, which also affects the stitching on the interior. The rim design is shared with the Fusilade and the Sentinel, being identical to the "Organic Type D" sport wheels available in Los Santos Customs.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
The Feltzer in GTA San Andreas has a good top speed, but its handling is rather unsatisfactory, as its light weight acts against it. It also has rather slow acceleration. Durability is average, making it take several hits before catching fire.

Grand Theft Auto IV
The GTA IV rendition of the Feltzer is powered by what sounds to be a small-displacement V8 engine coupled to a 5-speed semi-automatic gearbox in FR configuration. The Auto Eroticarwebsite states that the engine is a 3.8L Supercharged V8. The Feltzer has a top speed of around 85 to 90 mph, but is the slowest of the sports cars, even slower than the more compact Sentinel XS. Acceleration is decent, yet strong enough to easily break traction on the rear wheels when punched.

The Feltzer has developed a reputation for being one of the best drifting cars in the game, due to the high level of torque generated by the supercharger. The suspension is firm and responsive, keeping the Feltzer level in the corners, albeit with some fishtailing at high speeds. These qualities provide an accurate representation of the unforgiving nature the Mercedes coupes provide. Braking is good, and ABS is an available option, though not standard. The Feltzer withstands high-speed frontal crashes well, thanks to its luxury build, and can sustain numerous frontal hits without failing or catching fire. The car can not withstand gunfire very well, however, and also leaves the player highly vulnerable if the player is driving with the top down.

Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online
The GTA V rendition is powered by a high-revving 6.0L supercharged V8 engine, according to the website. The engine cover appears to be a V8, which is coupled to a 6-speed gearbox in a front engine, rear wheel drive layout. It shares its engine sound with the Carbonizzare.

The car accelerates quickly with a higher top speed than the GTA IV variant and that makes the car dangerous, as the player is more prone to be ejected from the windshield. Compared to the other sports cars, it has a lower top speed, average acceleration, poorer braking, but higher traction. It is often regarded as one of the best drifting cars in the game due to it being back heavy, having a responsive suspension, and being easier to control. Its back-heavy distribution makes it slide out of control when cornering, however.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

 * The Feltzer can only be modified at TransFender.
 * Las Venturas TransFender charges 20% more (except for colors).

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

 * An All-proofed Feltzer can be found (and is used) in the final story mission, End of the Line. To obtain it, the player must drown the vehicle in a body of water (Glen Park is the most suitable place), thus, failing the mission. Note that Feltzer won't keep it's special properties if one fails the mission by letting Tenpenny escape or if Sweet dies.

Grand Theft Auto IV

 * A unique pink Feltzer owned by Gracie Ancelotti appears during "...I'll Take Her." Upon completion of the mission, the car is driven away to be disposed of by an NPC, but can be obtained if the player is quick on the draw. Alternatively, simply start the mission by driving to Gracie's house, but do not enter the marker. Instead, point the gun at Gracie. Gracie will leap over the wall and fail the mission, but the Feltzer will be unlocked and ready for the player to take.

This unique Feltzer is one of five vehicles in GTA IV referred to by name, the others being the "shitty beige Willard" from "It's Your Call", the "silver Blista" taken in "Clean Getaway", the Patriot from "The Puerto Rican Connection", and the Romero used in "Undertaker."


 * This same Feltzer can be found in The Ballad of Gay Tony during the mission Blog This!..., it can be obtained by taking the car out from the driveway with a helicopter and then push the vehicle with another car into the Lost Clubhouse parking lot. Be sure not to hurt Gracie or Tony, cause this will fail the mission.
