+ | Depicted as a two-door open top car from the 1960s, the Blade combines elements of the {{WP|Chevrolet Impala#Fourth generation (1965-1970)|1965 and 1968 Chevrolet Impalas}}. The front of the car resembles the 1967 Impala, while the rear of the car resembles that of the 1965 Impala, with chrome, convex-shaped areas around the tail lights. Its headlight design is again similar to that of the 1965 Impala. Unusually, the Blade has no side-view mirrors. |
Being a lowrider, its exterior and interior can be modified at [[Loco Low Co.]]. If the car is equipped with hydraulics, it can be used in lowrider competitions. While normally appearing with only an open top, the car can be modified at Loco Low Co. to feature a hard top or a convertible top. |

The Blade, now badged under [[Vapid]], is now styled as a small two-door muscle car based on the {{WP|Ford Falcon (North America)|1965 Ford Falcon}}. The double front fascia and grille takes influence from the {{WP|Dodge Monaco#First generation|1966 Dodge Monaco}}. The sides of the car bears similarity with the {{WP|Mercury Comet|1964 Mercury Comet}}. The tail lights resemble those found on the {{WP|Dodge Dart#Fourth generation (1967–1976)|1971-1972 Dodge Dart Demon}}. |
+ | |||
+ | The car ditches the lowrider style from the 3D Universe for a more "gasser" style, with raised front suspension and a solid beam axle. The rear is fitted with wide wheels. |

− | The Blade's performance is much better in ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'', thanks to the high-output V8 under the hood. However, it is quite a mixed bag. It has extremely good acceleration for a Muscle car, but lacks top speed to keep up. Handling wise, the car handles less like a normal Muscle car, instead having a more unique, understeer-heavy design which resembles the [[Rat-Loader]] and other low-end Muscles. It will need to slow down into corners more than other cars, but can make up this lost speed with its aforementioned acceleration. Unlike other Muscle cars, it lacks almost all semblances of oversteer. |
+ | The Blade's performance is much better in ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'', and can be considered a {{WP|Sleeper (car)|Sleeper car}}, thanks to the high-output V8 under the hood. However, it is quite a mixed bag. It has extremely good acceleration for a Muscle car, but lacks top speed to keep up. When fully upgraded, the Blade's acceleration is very competitive against some of the higher-end super cars, such as the [[Nero]] and [[T20]]. Handling wise, the car handles less like a normal Muscle car, instead having a more unique, understeer-heavy design which resembles the [[Rat-Loader]] and other low-end Muscles. It will need to slow down into corners more than other cars, but can make up this lost speed with its aforementioned acceleration. Unlike other Muscle cars, it lacks almost all semblances of oversteer. |
− | The Blade is also somewhat special in how hard it is to ram off the road. Being a very back heavy car, the Blade can shrug off most rear-end rams and attempts to PIT with ease. This makes it a good car for attempting to evade police, or in racing, as other players attempting to take down a Blade will find it very difficult to force the Blade off the road. Crash deformation only furthers this, by being able to take large amounts of head-on collisions before smoking, and axles being damaged is not very likely in normal circumstances. |

The first allows heavily modified Blades, among many other modified cars to spawn outside Los Santos Customs, as well at other locations. The second two allow the Blade and other [["I'm Not a Hipster" Update]] cars to spawn modified in specific locations, particularly around the city. They only spawn in ''GTA V''. |

− | ** Given that the artwork seems to depict [[beta]] Ballas members, in addition to the beta versions of the Grove Street OG's ([[Sweet Johnson|Sweet]], [[Big Smoke]], [[Ryder]], and [[Carl Johnson|Carl]]), it's possible that the Blade was a Ballas gang car at some point in development. |

For the boat in The Ballad of Gay Tony, see Blade (boat).
The Blade is a two-door open top lowrider and a two-door muscle car featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto V, and Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the "I'm Not a Hipster" Update. It is manufactured by Vapid in the HD Universe.
Design
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Depicted as a two-door open top car from the 1960s, the Blade combines elements of the 1965 and 1968 Chevrolet Impalas. The front of the car resembles the 1967 Impala, while the rear of the car resembles that of the 1965 Impala, with chrome, convex-shaped areas around the tail lights. Its headlight design is again similar to that of the 1965 Impala. Unusually, the Blade has no side-view mirrors.
Being a lowrider, its exterior and interior can be modified at Loco Low Co.. If the car is equipped with hydraulics, it can be used in lowrider competitions. While normally appearing with only an open top, the car can be modified at Loco Low Co. to feature a hard top or a convertible top.
The Blade may be found on any Mexican gang's turf, and is driven by said gang members, especially the San Fierro Rifa. It can occasionally be seen driven by non-gang affiliated civilians.
Like most lowriders in the game, the Blade offers a substantial boost to the player's sex appeal.
Grand Theft Auto V
The Blade returns in the I'm Not a Hipster Update for Grand Theft Auto V. The Blade, now badged under Vapid, is now styled as a small two-door muscle car based on the 1965 Ford Falcon. The double front fascia and grille takes influence from the 1966 Dodge Monaco. The sides of the car bears similarity with the 1964 Mercury Comet. The tail lights resemble those found on the 1971-1972 Dodge Dart Demon.
The car ditches the lowrider style from the 3D Universe for a more "gasser" style, with raised front suspension and a solid beam axle. The rear is fitted with wide wheels.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
Acceleration and speed are quite impressive, and the brakes and slick handling serve the vehicle well. Although cornering is also excellent, the one major drawback of the Blade is its major oversteer, which makes emergency brake turns futile, and driving at high speeds a challenge due to the potential loss of control at the slightest disturbance. The Blade is capable of withstanding significant impact damage due to its strong frame and overall construction, but does not fare as well against explosive damage.
Like all lowriders, the Blade is not recommended for off-road racing, as it is prone to flipping.

Grand Theft Auto V
The Blade's performance is much better in Grand Theft Auto V, and can be considered a Sleeper car, thanks to the high-output V8 under the hood. However, it is quite a mixed bag. It has extremely good acceleration for a Muscle car, but lacks top speed to keep up. When fully upgraded, the Blade's acceleration is very competitive against some of the higher-end super cars, such as the Nero and T20. Handling wise, the car handles less like a normal Muscle car, instead having a more unique, understeer-heavy design which resembles the Rat-Loader and other low-end Muscles. It will need to slow down into corners more than other cars, but can make up this lost speed with its aforementioned acceleration. Unlike other Muscle cars, it lacks almost all semblances of oversteer.
The Blade is also somewhat special in how hard it is to ram off the road. Being a very back heavy car, the Blade can shrug off most rear-end rams and attempts to PIT with ease. This makes it a good car for attempting to evade police, or in racing, as other players attempting to take down a Blade will find it very difficult to force the Blade off the road. Crash deformation only furthers this, by being able to take large amounts of head-on collisions before smoking, and axles being damaged is not very likely in normal circumstances.
It is worth noting that when in first person (or to a lesser extent, hood view), is very difficult to see the road while in a Blade due to the angle, so suspension upgrades are suggested for this vehicle or by switching back to a third-person perspective.

Trivia
General
- The default radio stations for the Blade are:
- GTA San Andreas: Radio Los Santos.
- GTA V: Channel X.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
- A flame-proof Blade can be found during the mission High Stakes, Low Rider.
- In an artwork, Ballas members can be seen shooting at Grove Street Families members in what appears to be a modified Blade.
Bugs/Glitches
Grand Theft Auto V
- Likely due to shared resources, the steering wheel bears a Declasse badge even though it is manufactured by Vapid.
- With the Chrome Tip Exhausts equipped, the exhausts are offset to the driver's side, partially clipping through the rear bumper on the left and leaving a small gap on the right.
- The original description of the car mentioned it as a four door sedan, but the model is clearly a two door. This was most likely a developer oversight, but it has since been fixed.[vague]
