Description: This car (known as Buff or Buffalo, a.k.a. The Roadbuster) is a custom-made machine, based on a Porsche chassis with a Corvette Stingray engine block. The engine has been heavily modified (starting with a Double Overhead Cam) so that it produces output in excess of 730 hp, and speeds in excess of 190 mph. The body is covered in 5 mm-thick battleship steel armor plate, and the windows are made of a combination of bulletproof glass and Lexgard plastic. Thus, it is armored sufficiently enough to withstand SMG fire (but not a 20 mm antitank gun or a 10 gauge solid slug). Throw a switch and the tires rotate 90 degrees, allowing the car to drive sideways (although not very fast and only in a straight line). If one needs to brake real fast, another switch will cause a series of long blades to snap out from the wheels, digging into the ground. It also is equipped with a sunroof, door gunports, and an external loudspeaker system.
