For the previous rendition in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, see Elegy.
The Annis Elegy Retro Custom is a two-door sports car added to Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Import/Export update, and due to appear in Grand Theft Auto VI.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Elegy Retro Custom is based on a blend of multiple generations of the Nissan Skyline GT-R. The vehicle's front fascia is based on the fourth generation Nissan Skyline GT-R (R33), while the side, rear, and general shape of the car takes inspiration from the third generation Nissan Skyline GT-R (R32), and the tail lamps, C-pillar and the reverse lights on the rear bumper are from the fifth generation Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34). Further user modification can make the Elegy Retro Custom resemble one specific generation of the Skyline range.
The Elegy Retro Custom is the classic version of the Elegy RH8, appearing to resemble the Elegy from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas with a more realistic appearance. The front of the car is predominated by the bumper, which features a large rectangular intake with a slanted license plate on the centre, two squared intakes beside it and vertical vents on the sides, near the front wheels. A small extension can be seen at the bottom, also featuring thin vents below the squared ones. On the upper area, the grille features an inset surround and the corresponding "Elegy" badge on the driver side, as well as plastic headlamp housings containing inner circular lamps, middle square lamps and outer triangle-shaped turn signals. The bonnet features a slight bulge on the centre and a manufacturer insignia on the front, which opens to reveal a strut brace over the engine.
The sides of the car denote a simplistic design, featuring a narrow body with slightly wider fenders, together with a detail passing through the doors and a set of skirts. On the cabin area, plastic trimmings can be seen around the windows and on the inner pillars, as well as body-coloured mirror wings. "RH8" badges can be seen on the front fenders.
The rear of the car is distinguished by the wide boot with a ducktail spoiler and the corresponding manufacturer badge on the driver side, as well as the sectioned housings containing the dual red circular tail lamps. The rear bumper makes use of a license plate on the centre, rectangular reverse lights beside the plate and the dual hooks on each side. The bumper also has two mouldings for the exhaust tubes.
The interior of the car is the same as the Sultan RS (itself being a derivative of the "Sultan" interior), although the steering wheel bears the corresponding Annis badge. It can be also modified to feature additional analog gauges, digital displays and numerous switches, in a similar manner to race-type cars such as the RE-7B and the ETR1.
Colour distribution is changed in comparison to the Elegy RH8, where the primary one is applied on the body and the stitches on the steering wheel and seats, while the secondary colour is applied on the bonnet, roof and boot. A trim colour is also available for the inner sections of the seats and part of the door cards, as well as a dial colour. The rims are identical to the "Endo v.2" rims available in Los Santos Customs, able to support a dedicated colour (although only naturally-generated examples from the Content Creator or during missions may have a gold colour).
As of the Los Santos Tuners update, the timing belt and cam pulleys of the "Vernier Pulleys" options are fully-animated, and rotate accordingly when idle or revving up the engine.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
Due to its age, the Elegy Retro Custom ends up being slower than the original Elegy RH8 (similar to the relationship between the Comet and Comet Retro Custom); however, it is still a top contender in the Sports class due to its all wheel drive, giving it a boost in acceleration and handling. The top speed is lower than that of the RH8, and will lose ground at high speeds in comparison to the Pariah and Schafter V12. The Elegy Retro Custom's strength is mainly in tight corners, similar to the RH8.
The Elegy Retro Custom is powered by a twin-cam six-cylinder engine powering all four wheels through a 5-speed gearbox, with a power distribution of 1/4 the front wheel and the rest to the rear ones. It shares its engine sound with the Elegy RH8.

Trivia[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- The description on Benny's website is an obvious reference to the situation where new players would often fill their garages with the free Elegy RH8s.
- The "Not Tonight Pizzaboy" livery is an obvious reference to the quote "Street's closed, pizzaboy" from The Fast & The Furious, in which said scene featured a custom yellow Nissan Skyline R33 GT-R.
- There's a small issue with the livery where the Device logo on the left skirt is upside down. This could be a developer oversight.
- In a similar fashion, the "Midnight Racer" livery is an obvious nod to the Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R famously driven by the late Paul Walker in 2 Fast 2 Furious.
- The "Drift Missile" livery is a reference to drift missiles, beater vehicles used as throwaway cars for drifting.
- The "Redwood Racing" livery is a reference to the Gibson Motorsport Group A Nissan Skyline R32 of which wore the livery of Winfield Cigarettes during the Australian Group A championships of 1992.
- The "LTD" livery is a reference to the ADVAN/STP Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R which competed in the Japanese Touring Car Championship.
- The "Meinmacht" livery is a reference to the CALSONIC Nissan Skyline R32 GT-R, which won many victories in the Japanese Touring Car Championship.
- The number 23 used on the "Meinmacht" livery is a reference to the number 23 being used on Nissan racing cars as wordplay, as in Japanese it is read as "Ni-San".
- With the correct modifications, the player has the option to remove both of the licence plates, making it illegal on the road.
- The sticker on the top of rear window is a reference to the R200 Club and Takayuki Kuroki's FLAT Racing from Wangan Midnight.
- Through customization, one can modify the car to resemble Reina Akikawa or any various Wangan Midnight characters that use the R32 and R33 from the anime and manga, such as Koichi Hiramoto and Takayuki Kuroki.
Bugs/Glitches[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
- The handle on the right-hand door appeared to be missing from the actual model, though it can still be opened without issues. This was patched in the Cunning Stunts: Special Vehicle Circuit update.
