’55 Vapid Stanier
Vapid · Classic sedan
Rockstar Games names this car "’55 Vapid Stanier" in the official Grand Theft Auto VI screenshot library, and the 1955 model year is part of that official name rather than our own addition. It is held as a distinct record: the Stanier nameplate has appeared in earlier Grand Theft Auto games as a modern sedan, and a mid-1950s Stanier is a different machine that happens to share a model family. Merging the two would misrepresent what Rockstar has actually shown. Beyond the name and the car visible in the screenshot, no performance, price or availability information has been published, so none appears here.

GTA VI appearance
The official screenshot shows a 1950s-era American sedan presented under the ’55 Stanier name. That is the extent of what can be responsibly observed. Whether it is a mission vehicle, a purchasable classic or part of a wider period-car selection has not been stated by Rockstar.
Previous games
GTA history
The Vapid Stanier has appeared across earlier Grand Theft Auto titles as a plain full-size sedan, most familiar in its police-liveried form in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto V. Those were contemporary cars; a ’55 model places the nameplate in a completely different era. This describes earlier games only.

Design
Real-world inspiration
The ’55 Vapid Stanier appears to draw inspiration from Earlier Staniers have generally been compared to full-size Ford sedans such as the Crown Victoria. A 1955-dated Stanier would sit alongside the mid-fifties American sedans of that period, but Rockstar has confirmed no real-world basis, so this is offered as cautious context.. Rockstar Games has not confirmed any real-world basis, so this is an observation about the design rather than a licensed relationship.
