The Vapid Retinue is a vintage coupe featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Smuggler's Run update.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Retinue is heavily based on the European Ford Escort Mk. I, taking the shape of a vintage 2-door coupe. It also takes inspiration from the 1973 AMC Hornet, especially on the shape of the grille and positioning of the fog lights. The rear lights are taken from the aforementioned Mk. I, but the reverse lights have been included in the tail light group, having a layout that has loose resemblance to those found on the Lada Riva/VAZ 2107. The rear lights are also resembles those found in Toyota Corolla E30.
The interior of the car sports a dial cluster that is common on various muscle cars, but uses several accessories from race-type interiors, as evidenced from its race seats with seatbelts. Like the Panto, the Retinue has "El Quatro" tuner rims that are also available at Los Santos Customs.
The primary color of the car is applied on the bodywork and the interior stitching, while the secondary color is applied on the roof.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
The Retinue has impressive speed and handling, which makes it difficult for it to suffer oversteer and should the Retinue oversteer, it simply corrects itself. This makes it one of the most versatile RWD vehicle for races and weaving through in and out of traffic.
Away from the tarmac, the Retinue is among the strongest performers, rivaled in its class only by its Mk II successor. The car's relatively light mass and not having excessive amounts of power aids it considerably with its power delivery on loose surfaces. Despite its FR drivetrain layout, the car exhibits phenomenal amounts of grip on dirt and gravel trails, offering even more grip than its successor. Such is the amount of grip offered by the Retinue off-road, drivers should be wary of banks, as combined with the car's relatively high centre of mass, attacking banks too aggressively will very easily tip the car onto two wheels, easily resulting in a roll if improperly managed.
Like the Futo, the Retinue is powered by a four-cylinder engine bearing four throttle bodies.
