Overview
The Cheetah is a Grand Theft Auto super modelled on the Ferrari Testarossa / SF90. Rockstar has not shown or named the Cheetah for GTA 6, so everything below is drawn from its real-world basis and its history across the series — not from confirmed GTA 6 detail.
History in the GTA Series
The Cheetah debuted in the original GTA (1997) as one of the fastest cars in the game. In Vice City (2002), it became legendary — a white Testarossa parked outside the Pole Position Club, instantly recognizable. San Andreas (2004) continued the tradition. GTA IV (2008) skipped the Cheetah entirely, but GTA V (2013) brought it back as a radical reimagining based on the Ferrari Enzo and Grotti Cheetah concept. The Cheetah Classic in GTA Online restored the beloved Testarossa design. For GTA 6, Rockstar is blending both eras.
The Cheetah's franchise history is essentially the history of GTA itself. It has appeared in every mainline title, evolving from a simple sprite in the overhead-view originals through the polygon models of the 3D era into the photorealistic renderings of modern games. Each version reflected the Ferrari design language of its era — the GTA Vice City Cheetah channeled the Testarossa's side strakes, the GTA V version drew from the Enzo's aggressive wedge shape, and the GTA 6 iteration synthesizes decades of Italian supercar DNA into something that honors the lineage while looking unmistakably contemporary.
What We Actually Know About It in GTA 6
Rockstar has not shown or named the Cheetah for GTA 6. It is a long-running series staple, going back to the original GTA (2002), which makes a GTA 6 version reasonable to expect — but expectation is not confirmation. No official source gives a top speed, acceleration, handling rating, price, spawn location or customization list for the Cheetah in GTA 6 — the in-game economy and traffic spawns have not been shown at that level of detail. As a super you can reasonably expect top-tier speed and acceleration, with the grip and braking trade-offs the real exotics it echoes are known for; past GTA games let you find vehicles like this in traffic, buy them from in-game websites, or earn them through missions, and we expect something similar. Once the game is out we will replace this with verified detail — until then, any exact mph figure, dollar price, street location or upgrade menu quoted for it is invented.
