| Not to be confused with a similar vehicle in GTA San Andreas, the Hotring Racer with a similar design and purpose. |
- "You're either a Hotringer, or you're not, and here's how you tell. If your first instinct isn't to crack a beer on the radiator grille, polish the hood with a mouthful of spit, slap it on the rear fender, call it a "classy gal" and belch the national anthem, then you're not the target audience. On your way."
- ―Southern San Andreas Super Autos description.
The Declasse Hotring Sabre is a stock car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series update.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The car's design is a mix of the first generation Chevrolet Lumina, and the 5th generation Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, both of which were used as NASCAR stock cars at the time.
As expected from any real-life stock cars, the Hotring Sabre does not have any functioning lights, and does not have a license plate, as well as a protective cage around the engine compartment and cabin. The Hotring Sabre also has opening doors, despite not having any door handles, and a passenger side window net unlike its real-life counterpart.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Hotring Sabre is a fast car in the Sports Class, with an extremely high top speed and good stability. However, it is prone to lose control when hit, as the handling is somewhat sluggish and the turning radius is not very good. In addition, it can spin-out easily if driving through bumps, especially when turning. Furthermore, it has relatively poor acceleration compared to other sportscars.
The vehicle is powered by a single-cam V8.
