Overview
The Deluxo is Vice City’s most beloved Easter egg vehicle — a direct homage to the DeLorean DMC-12 from Back to the Future. Its stainless steel body, gull-wing doors, and angular design make it instantly recognizable as the most famous movie car of all time.
The Deluxo isn’t fast. It isn’t powerful. It isn’t even particularly good-looking in the traditional sense. But it has something no other car in Vice City has: cultural cachet. Driving a Deluxo is driving a piece of cinema history.
Classic Vice City & GTA 6 Connection
The Deluxo returned in GTA Online with a twist — it could be modified with a hover conversion, allowing it to fly. This was the ultimate realization of the Back to the Future homage.
For GTA 6, the Deluxo could return as a collectible classic car. Given Vice City’s setting and Rockstar’s love of ’80s nostalgia, the Deluxo would be perfect fan service — especially if it includes a hover mode easter egg.
