Overview
The Buffalo STX is GTA's Dodge Charger — the four-door muscle car that proves you don't need to sacrifice practicality for performance. Based on the Charger SRT Hellcat, it delivers the same supercharged HEMI V8 power as the Gauntlet Hellfire but with four doors and a usable back seat. It's the getaway car, the crew transport, and the straight-line missile all in one package. In GTA 6, the Buffalo STX should be the ultimate practical performance car — fast enough to outrun most pursuits while carrying your entire crew.
QUICK SPECS
History in GTA
The Buffalo name has been in GTA since GTA IV (2008), based on the Dodge Charger. GTA V (2013) featured the Buffalo and Buffalo S, used notably by the FIB (FBI). GTA Online added the Buffalo STX in the Contract DLC — a modern Charger Hellcat that became the definitive four-door muscle car. Its combination of speed, 4 seats, and aggressive styling made it the perfect daily driver for players who needed performance and practicality.
The Buffalo STX in GTA 6
The GTA 6 Buffalo STX should draw from the final-generation Dodge Charger Hellcat — the widebody with its massive fender flares, supercharged 6.2L HEMI, and the unmistakable four-door muscle silhouette. With Dodge transitioning to electric, the GTA 6 version takes on special significance as a tribute to the last ICE Charger. Alternatively, Rockstar might reference the upcoming electric Charger Daytona. Either way, expect a wide-body four-door sedan that sounds and drives like a muscle car should.
Performance & Handling
The Buffalo STX should be competitive within the Muscle class while offering something no two-door muscle car can: 4 usable seats. Its supercharged V8 delivers brutal straight-line speed with the expected RWD oversteer drama. Compared to the Gauntlet Hellfire, it's slightly slower (heavier four-door body) but more versatile. On getaway missions where you need to carry crew members, the Buffalo STX is unmatched.
Where to Find It
The Charger is ubiquitous in real-life Florida — expect the Buffalo to be common in traffic throughout Vice City. Police variants may also appear. Available from dealerships at a moderate price.
Customization
Charger customization should include: Hellcat wide-body kit, SRT hood scoop, Daytona spoiler, performance exhaust, racing stripes, HEMI badge options, law enforcement-style modifications (for roleplay), and potentially a Last Call Edition package honoring the final ICE Charger.
