- "It wasn't as beautifully proportioned as the Sabre, or as fast as the Dominator, but that didn't matter - in the 70's, the real connoisseurs of muscle were all about the Deviant. Well now the dark horse is all grown up, and thanks to Team Schyster's ground-breaking remodeling this tricked-out, wild-eyed stallion is all set to put a hoof through your skull at the first opportunity."
- ―Legendary Motorsport description.
The Schyster Deviant is a muscle car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the continuation of the Arena War update, released on February 7, 2019, during the Deviant Week event.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Deviant is based on Ringbrothers' Javelin AMX Defiant, itself a customized 1972 AMC Javelin. The taillights, grille and lower grille seem to resemble the ones found in the 1970 Plymouth Barracuda.
The Deviant is distinguished by the front lamps, composed of two headlights and two turning signals on either side, as well as a bulky ram air scoop with a cutout for the small vent on the front. The front fenders have small vents behind the wheel arches.
On the middle section, two rear-view mirrors can be seen near the cabin's A-pillars with the shells painted in a secondary color and a trim color surrounding it, while twin rectangle exhausts can be seen located between the doors and the rear wheel arches.
On the rear, a ducktail spoiler can be seen at the end, above the license plate and the tail lights. The lower side appears to have two concave portions finished in a different color.
The interior uses dials and components from Race-based interiors, but the layout is unique, with the speedometer and tachometer centered to the driver side and the small gauges on the center (two gauges below the radio and three gauges above it).

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
Statistically, the Deviant handles like any other muscle car, but its heaviness makes it difficult for it to oversteer easily. Handling-wise, it is not quite punishing and can be corrected in an event of a spin-out, and can easily tackle hard corners with handbrake usage. Its speed is great and is quite a competitive vehicle for races. In addition, it can take on collisions relatively easy due to its heavy weight and having a good amount of durability; while the Deviant can be given full suspension upgrades, it does not make much difference in terms of corners.
The Deviant is powered by a single-cam V8 coupled to a 4-speed gearbox in a front engine, rear wheel drive layout. Part of the engine bay is occupied by an intake manifold connected to the aforemntioned vent. As indicated by a flag and the in-game model, the car has a supercharger.
