The Dinka Jester Classic is a classic sports car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online released as part of the After Hours update.
Description[]
The Jester Classic was originally intended to be released as an Event vehicle subsequent to the initial release of the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series update, but was instead cancelled until the release of the After Hours update[1]. Although the reason for its cancellation is not officially known, the version released in the After Hours update is an updated model that fixed a large majority of issues that were found with the original model (see Bugs/Glitches). The car was also released with a large variety of modifications alongside the existing ones from the previous update, including 10 liveries.
Influence[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Jester Classic is almost exclusively based on the fourth-generation Toyota Supra (A80), with the main headlight units and clusters inspired by the ones found on the Nissan 300ZX (Z32). The low placement of the rear plate and the flat profile of the rear bumper might have been inspired by the third-generation Infiniti G35 Coupe (V35). The taillight layout might have been inspired by the 1996-1999 Kia Elan (M100), which is even more apparent on the Jester's original model. The side vents might have been taken from the Ferrari F430. The greenhouse area closely resembles the first-generation Toyota 86/Subaru BRZ/Scion FR-S (ZN6/ZC6).
Liveries[]
- The 'Ten Minute Car' Livery pays homage to the first Fast and Furious movie, which features the primary inspiration of the Jester Classic, a Toyota Supra, which has a similar livery alongside a orange paint job, as well as a line bearing the livery's name.[2][3] Modifications can further increase the resemblance.
- The 'Slap Dash' Livery pays homage to the character Slap Jack in the second movie 2 Fast 2 Furious, who drove a Toyota Supra with a similar livery.
- The 'Smoking Tires' Livery is based on the Top Secret Supra 2001. [4]
- The 'Atomic Drift' Livery is based on the Toyota Supra Falken Racecar.[5]
- The 'Xero Racing' Livery is based on the JGTC Castrol TOM's Supra Racecar [6]
Modification Options[]
- The "Performance Hood" modification is based on the TRD3000GT hood.
Design[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Jester Classic continues the design cues of the original Jester from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, sharing the long, rounded design. The front area of the bumper is predominated by a set of three meshed intakes, with the central one intended to direct airflow to the radiator and the outer ones intended for the front brakes. The upper area has two black headlamp housings behind glass casings, each one containing a rectangular lamp on the inner side and a circular one on the outer sides, while the area in between bears the manufacturer emblem, just ahead of the seam between the bumper and the rest of the body. The bonnet is relatively simple and opens to reveal the engine bay with a strut brace over the engine. Additional badging can be seen on the engine cover.
The sides of the car follow a similar profile to the GTA San Andreas iteration of the Jester, having long intakes that direct airflow to the rear brakes and rounded mirror shells mounted on the doors, near the A-pillars. The greenhouse area is simple in design and features black trim around the windows, while the area behind the cabin uses a slanted hatch with a ducktail spoiler on the rear end.
The rear end of the car assumes a relatively flat profile, having a third brake light and manufacturer emblem on the centre, below the ducktail spoiler. On the outer sides, the car has large black tail lamp housings, each one having three circular lamps with smaller ones within. The bumper is relatively flat and has a dedicated section on the centre for the license plate and the vertical reverse lamps, as well as two mouldings for the exhaust tubes.
The interior of the car is the same used on the Sultan RS, itself being a paintable derivative of the Sultan interior. However, the horn cap bears the corresponding Dinka logo.
The primary colour of the car is applied on the bodywork, while the secondary one is applied on the mirror shells. A trim colour is also available for the interior, being applied on part of the doors and the back section, the inner portions of the seats and the stitching. It uses a set of rims similar to the "Slideways" tuner rims available in Los Santos Customs and can also support a dedicated colour (though it is only possible on naturally-generated examples such as in Content Creator), albeit with a darker tint/shade.

Performance[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The Jester Classic has balanced statistics to cruise around urban areas, as it has good speed and acceleration, as well as great handling. The strong grip keeps the car controllable at sharp turns and rarely loses control over small bumps and curbs, but has small understeer at higher speeds. Steering is rather loose at taking corners, but this also means good drifting capabilities in the hands of a skilled driver. In comparison to its modern equivalent, as well as the racecar version, the Jester Classic is able to go as fast as the aforementioned vehicles, but because of its slightly inferior acceleration and the rear wheel drivetrain, it requires a long runway to eventually surpass the aforementioned counterparts.
The Jester Classic is powered by a twin-cam Inline-6 engine, coupled to a 5-speed gearbox in a front engine, rear wheel drive layout. A fully-animated turbo can be seen in the front of the vehicle with the "Street Build" options in mod shops, which spins faster as the engine revvs up. It uses a high-revving engine sound also found on vehicles like the Bifta and the Kuruma.

- The "Front Bumper" group had the "Headlight Covers" (primary covers) component in there, before being moved to a separate category with a large variety of covers.
- There was originally a "Headlight Covers w/ Splitter" option in the Front Bumper group, which was the combination of a Carbon Splitter and the Headlight Covers.
- The "Stock Rear Bumper" had exhaust heat protection around the pipe molding.
- There were "Chrome Cage" options in the "Chassis" category, which were replaced by the "Primary Cage" options in the current model.
- The "Stock Exhaust" were of a larger diameter, as comparable to the custom exhaust options.

Trivia[]

- The vehicle was listed as a Sports Classics vehicle on the Rockstar Games Social Club and in the Content Creator, while in-game, the vehicle appears in the Sports vehicle class.
Oversights[]
Grand Theft Auto Online[]
The unreleased original model added in the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series update was subject to several quality control issues when spawned unofficially:
- The vehicle was in the Sports Classics class, contrary to common belief that it should be in the Sports class. Although not a bug, this was deemed inconsistent with the rest of the class.
- There was an error on the vehicle where the middle brake light would not move with the boot like it should have, therefore floating in the air when the boot is open.
- There was also another bug where the right headlight glass was using the wrong glass material, making it visually seem missing when compared to the left one.
- The rear lights were of a plain/faded texture, in comparison to the other vehicles of the same update.
- First-person view also seemed to have strange lighting bugs.
- The passenger seat received an incorrect seat node in the files, as if it were a rear seat.
These issues were the likely reason the model was not released as intended and instead fixed in a subsequent update.[1]
- Other quality control issues that were not patched in the After Hours update included carbon fibre textures on several modification parts. These were fixed in the Arena War update.[7]
- The "Dual Titanium Exhaust" option lacks fumes or backfire effect.
- The "Rear Spats" modification will cause the livery to be misaligned.
