- "Lithe, focused, aggressive: if you've ever made passionate love to an angry jungle cat, you'll have an inkling of what it's like to take Progen's new Itali GTB out for a gentle spin. And if you've ever made passionate love to a stripped down, track-ready jungle cat with a massive rear spoiler, you'll have some idea of what Benny can do to this thing."
- ―Benny's Original Motor Works description.
The Itali GTB is a sports car featured in the first Grand Theft Auto and a two-door super car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Import/Export update, released on January 10th, 2017, during the Itali GTB Week event. It is manufactured by Progen in the HD Universe.

Design
Grand Theft Auto
The Itali GTB resembles a Ferrari 348 GTS. Its name is a parody of Italy, where Ferraris are made.
The design of the car is very simplistic, with a small front compartment and a black portion on the roof.

 |
The Itali GTB returns to Grand Theft Auto Online and is now mostly based on the McLaren 570S (front and rear facade) and Trion Nemesis (rest of the body). It also features some clues from the McLaren 650S.
Featuring an aggressive styling and rounded design, the Itali GTB is distinguished by the large intakes on the front, with carbon-fibre trimmings on the lower side. Its triangle-shaped headlights have seven lamps and a turning signal strip on the upper edges. The outer lamps are basically full lamps, while the other six are split by a chrome stripe going onto the inner side.
The sides of the car have distinctive bulky arches, followed by concave shapes on the skirts and doors, running towards the rear fender vents. Body-colored mirror wings can be seen on either side. The greenhouse area is slightly angled towards the front, with the main pillars colored along with the rest of the bodywork.
On the rear, circular tail lights can be seen on the outer edges, along with red stripes around the rear vents, on the upper sides. Another vent can be seen right above the license plate and a lower vent is visible, with carbon-fibre diffuser just below. This diffuser also surrounds a single reverse light on the center. A roof panel extends past the rear window, giving it a small cutout on the upper side. The engine bay is partially visible through the rear window, although it can be mostly visible with the rear compartment open.
The primary color is applied on the bodywork and the interior stitching, while the secondary color is applied on the roof and pillars.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto
It is fast, yet its handling and durability are poor, sharing the same attributes as the Itali GTO.
Grand Theft Auto Online
Even without upgrading to its custom variant, the Itali GTB performs exceptionally well in races with excellent handling due to its AWD nature. Durability is fair but can become problematic after taking hard collisions from heavier vehicles.
The engine model appears to be the same single-cam V8 engine found on vehicles like the Cheetah, the Turismo R and the T20, coupled to a 6-speed gearbox in a mid engine, all wheel drive (30-70, front to rear distribution) layout. The engine sound is typically high-revving.

Trivia
General
- The Itali GTB, alongside the Mamba and Penetrator, are the oldest vehicles in the series to reappear as a whole (with the exception of emergency vehicles), as they returned from first Grand Theft Auto.
- The Itali GTB holds the longest gap between its last appearance and reappearance, being 19 years and 2.5 months between its last appearance (GTA, released in October 1997) and reappearance (GTA Online as part of the continuation of the GTA Online: Import/Export update, released on January 10th, 2017), thus beating the Penetrator, which was released nearly a month earlier. It was soon beaten by the Impaler a year later from the release of the Arena War update, followed by the Itali GTO just two weeks later.
- The default radio station for the Itali GTB is Non-Stop-Pop FM.
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Despite its name, the car it is based on is manufactured by McLaren, a British manufacturer.
- Upon release of the vehicle, the "Skirts" customization list appeared with a few mistakes:
- The "Carbon Low Level Skirt" is a secondary color skirt.
- The "GT Skirt" should be named after the previous one.
- The first "Secondary GT Skirt" is colored as the primary one, and should be named after the previous one (as the GT Skirts have a small wing at the rear). The second option with the same name is an actual secondary color GT skirt.
- All those mistakes were fixed afterwards[vague], therefore the names identify the options correctly.
