- "After hours of crate digging, you know when they've found the perfect sample to butcher on your latest EDM track. This is that record. Remix culture meets auto culture with the Virgo, a car that's already lower and slower than any road-certified vehicle can afford to be - and trust us, you ain't seen nothing yet. Your old man thought this was stately and composed back when he was curb crawling his way through the 70s, so jack up, jerk it off, and show him how the young folks get down."
- ―Benny's Original Motor Works description.
The Dundreary Virgo Classic (formerly named "Virgo") is a two-door car featured in the HD Universe.
Design
Grand Theft Auto IV
The Virgo in Grand Theft Auto IV is arguably equally based on the 1977-79 Lincoln Mark V and 1977-1979 Mercury Cougar. The tail lights are similar to those on the 1977-79 Ford Thunderbird.
The rear is also quite similar to the Remington from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Also, it is one of the vehicles to have red rear indicators, along with the Vapid Taxi, Police Cruiser, NOOSE Cruiser and Voodoo.
Grand Theft Auto Online
| This article or section refers to "enhanced version" content in the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC renditions of Grand Theft Auto V and/or Grand Theft Auto Online, that is absent on the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 versions. For a complete list of the features of the "enhanced" version of Grand Theft Auto V, please see here. |  |
The vehicle returns to Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Lowriders: Custom Classics update, dubbed as the 'Virgo Classic'. It mostly remains unchanged from its GTA IV rendition, featuring only slight cosmetic differences like a silver bottom skirt and a different tail lights design.
The stock version does not contain any sort of body upgrades in Los Santos Customs, however, there are a wide variety of modification options available at Benny's Original Motor Works if the player decides to upgrade it into a lowrider.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto IV
Engine bay (GTA IV).
Powering the rear wheels of the Virgo is what is modeled as a single camshaft V8, coupled with a 5-speed gearbox. The engine feels rather restricted in terms of power, resulting in rather torpid acceleration mid-range. This shortage of brute force does not seem to have limited the top speed to such a degree. One thing this car can do exceptionally well is corner. Despite being a large, ungainly classic American car, when pushed to the limit it is perfectly capable of attacking corners vigorously with just the mere suggestion of oversteer, being an ideal weapon of choice in classic car races. It also glides around bends with such docility when driving in a relaxed fashion, though even at low speeds body roll can be pronounced. Old drums behind the wheels make for rather poor braking.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Virgo Classic's performance had shown improvements from its GTA IV counterpart, being able to take corners easily and when it starts to lose traction, it can be corrected. Overall top speed and acceleration is fair, though its heavy body can easily withstand head-on collisions against traffic several times.

Variants
Virgo Classic CustomGrand Theft Auto Online |
 (Rear quarter view) |
|
A heavily-modified variant, the Virgo Classic Custom, is featured in the Lowriders: Custom Classics for Grand Theft Auto Online. |
Special Variants
Little Jacob's Virgo
- In GTA IV, Little Jacob drives a uniquely colored maroon-and-black Virgo which he uses to sell and transport firearms from the trunk. It is available to the player in the beginning of "Concrete Jungle". Niko is able to take it to his safehouse and complete the mission in another car. The player can also obtain the Virgo after escaping the cops in "Russian Revolution". The player can drive it to his safehouse and complete the mission in another vehicle. It is possible to find Little Jacob's Virgo at a an unnamed church in Suffolk in the mission "Mr and Mrs Bellic". It is unobtainable while wearing a suit and tie, because once the player gets close to the car, it triggers a cutscene. The player can take it while wearing casual clothes however, because the cut-scene only occurs once Niko is dressed appropriately.

Trivia
General
- The Virgo plays the following radio stations by default when entered:
- GTA IV: Massive B Soundsystem 96.9 or Tuff Gong Radio.
- Episodes of Liberty City: RamJam FM.
- GTA V: Blue Ark or Rebel Radio.
- The car was originally named "Virgo" in Grand Theft Auto IV, however, when a totally different muscle car was introduced to Grand Theft Auto V, also named "Virgo", confusion was brought up to why the car underwent a massive transformation. Later in the enhanced version of GTA Online, the GTA IV "Virgo" returned, renamed the "Virgo Classic", which reveals the name of the car's historical appearances, while the name "Virgo" now refers to the transformed muscle car from 3D Universe and GTA V.
- The Virgo's name derives from the name of the sixth astrological sign of the Zodiac. It is also the Latin name for the Virgin Mary.
Grand Theft Auto Online
- Despite the original GTA IV Virgo returning to GTA Online being dubbed "Classic", the models it derives inspiration from are actually newer than the Virgo originally added to GTA V in the Ill-Gotten Gains Part 1 update.
- The badge texture file shows what appears to be the arrow-shaped detail that is found on the tail lights of the original GTA IV model. However, it is unused. The same applies to its custom variant.
