Pegassi Tempesta in GTA 6: The Tempesta, the Specs and the Real Car

The Pegassi Tempesta is the car you least want to see in your mirror in GTA 6: a mid-engined supercar with a flame-spitting 4.0-litre V10, painted in Vice Beach Police Department livery. West Coast Customs built a real one, light bar and all.

In the game

In the screenshot the Tempesta is black with white doors reading POLICE, a red and blue light bar on the roof and a red underglow under the sills. It belongs to the Vice Beach police, the department that patrols the city’s beachfront, and a car like this will be part of how the wanted system escalates. A police supercar in this livery was already spotted on Miami’s streets in October.

The real build by West Coast Customs

West Coast Customs gave the real car the same Vice Beach Police livery over lowered suspension and custom rims, and a fighter-jet style cockpit packed with custom leather, buttons and police equipment. The door carries both a Tempesta and a Pegassi badge, and the shield on the flank is the Pegassi emblem.

What it’s based on

The Tempesta is Rockstar’s Lamborghini Huracán, and Pegassi has always been the game’s Lamborghini. Hypebeast’s text calls it an Invetero in one line, but the badges on the real car and the name in the screenshot both say Pegassi.

As a technical artist, I like how much of the in-game material survived the trip into the real world: the depth of the metal flake, the way the gold reflects the sky. Paint that was mixed in a shader turned out to be possible to spray.
