“

Nothing said 'buy American' when imports were sweeping the States in the 70s and 80s like the Albany Primo. A midsize luxury car that was built to last.

”

— Southern San Andreas Super Autos description, GTA Online.

The Primo is a four-door sedan appearing in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Grand Theft Auto IV, Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, It is manufactured by Albany in the HD Universe.

Influence

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

In Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, the Primo resembles a 1986–1990 Toyota Camry and a 1987–1991 Nissan Gloria Y31.

HD Universe

In the HD Universe, the Primo is primarily based on the 1992–1997 Cadillac Seville, with the grille, front headlights, and tail lights similar to the 1987–1993 Cadillac Allante, and dimensions and some additional design elements taken from the tenth-generation Toyota Crown.

Design

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

The Primo is one of the better sedans available in the game, although its design is less remarkable and thus appears more generic in traffic. It has square lights, a small grille, medium-sized bumpers and black inner pillars. Primos are set to spawn in single colors.

Grand Theft Auto IV

In Grand Theft Auto IV, the Primo is designed as a standard middle-of-the-road sedan, the Primo borrows most of the design traits from its previous iteration, but features a slightly larger front end and is generally rounded on the edges. The front bumper features a license plate and front-facing fog lamps, while the grille features the corresponding Albany badges.

The sides make use of flared wheel arches and side yellow marker lights, as well as black inner pillars and black square rear-view mirrors on the greenhouse area. Its wheelbase appears to be lower, giving it a somewhat sportier appearance.

The rear of the car is somewhat identical to its previous rendition, but features a red light strip surrounding the turn and reverse lights from both sides and passing above the license plate, while the trunk features a small lip and the corresponding badges, also displaying the car's name. The rear bumper features two lower mouldings for the exhausts.

Primos may appear in a single-tone color or with two-tone colors, where the secondary color is applier to the lower portions and the flat sections of the sides and rear end. An additional tertiary color is present for the strips running through the bumpers and the doors, the grille, the trim on the fenders and around the windows, the roof and the rims. It uses a set of wheels consisting of a flat disk with triangle/star shaped patterns on it.

The Primo is equipped with a GPS system with a male voice, but only if the player leaves the "selected cars" (default) option in the audio menu.

Grand Theft Auto V and Online

In Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online, the Primo retains the same design as in GTA IV, but with a few tweaks on the interior and the rear window.

Color distribution is the same as before, but the interior stitching matches with the primary color and the details were permanently set to chrome, no longer receiving a tertiary color. The Primo's wheel design were carried over from GTA IV, and is also shared with the Seminole.

Performance

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

The Primo is one of the most dependable vehicles in the game, possessing good handling as a result of its lighter weight, fair acceleration and a decent top speed. For that, it is an ideal choice for doing drive-bys against enemy gangs. While relatively acceptable under normal driving conditions, the Primo's axle width may make the car less stable in bumpy conditions.

Grand Theft Auto IV

In Grand Theft Auto IV, its engine gives it an immense top speed, on par with full-on sports cars. The Primo's underpinning is its body roll and small, weak brakes. The Primo's acceleration and handling are also poor and un-sporty and it suffers from a problem similar to the Emperor in which the rear swings frenziedly on sharp turns - but even worse, the car feels heavily planted on the ground, therefore, if the turning is done smoothly, the Primo will do a very wide turn, the only possible workarounds are to start drifting yards before where the desired turn is or to slow down. This car is thus very unfavorable for driving at high speeds, leading this vehicle to be better suited towards missions where a getaway vehicle is not required, friend "hangouts" and city driving. Due to its sturdy build, the Primo is able to take a few direct frontal hits without stalling or setting alight.

The Primo is stated to be powered by a supercharged V8. The engine cover itself is relatively long, sharing the same initial design as the marked-out V8 engine covers found on various other sedans and SUVs, however no indication of cylinder count is marked on the cover. Under the cover are 4 exhaust manifolds on the left hand side of the model, but a complete lack of any manifolds on the opposing side. The engine is coupled to a 5-speed gearbox in a front engine, rear wheel drive configuration. The engine sound is the same as the Vincent's. Unlike its real life counterpart, it is rear-wheel drive, rather than front-wheel drive.

Grand Theft Auto V and Online

The performance of the Primo seems to be the same as in GTA IV, with the exception that it is mostly outclassed by other similar cars. However, it retains its resistance to crashes and an unusually competitive stance in its class, especially for a car of its price range.

Again, the Primo is powered by what appears to be a V8 engine. With the "Low Level Spoiler" modification installed, the "Supercharged V8" badging may be present on the rear end.

Variants

Primo Custom

Grand Theft Auto Online

The Primo Custom in Grand Theft Auto Online.
(Rear quarter view)

Description

The Primo Custom is a custom variant of the Primo, which features highly-advanced modifications, and hydraulics enabled, not present on the standard Primo.

Special Variants

There is a special "Supercharged" variant of the Primo which features a "Supercharged V8" badge on its deck-lid. The supercharged Primo is lowered with added ground effects and a spoiler. It always comes in maroon, and is the vehicle of choice for members of the Spanish Lords. Despite the "Supercharged V8" badge, it has the same performance as the regular Primo, and sounds just like the regular Primo. The Supercharged V8 Primo can usually be found driven in and around Spanish Lords territory, including Cerveza Heights, South Bohan, East Holland and southern Alderney City. If this variant really had improved performance, the engine would most likely be based on the real life Northstar Supercharged LC3. The "supercharged" Primo shares its trunk spoiler with the DF8-90 V8 Turbo.

The Primo is also featured in The Ballad of Gay Tony's Drug Wars. As with all other vehicles appearing in Drug Wars, the Primo has up to five different color combinations. All of the colors are unique and cannot be obtained through Pay 'n' Spray.

Trivia

General

"Primo" either means raw, as in materials, or cousin in Spanish and Portuguese.
- It also means "first" or "prime" in Italian.
- Additionally, the etymology of the Primo may deviate from the character of the same name in Rockstar's Midnight Club II, who drives the Schneller V8, a 4-door sedan similar in design to the Primo.
Primo was the name of the division of Honda dealerships in Japan where the models that the original San Andreas version of the car was based on were exclusively sold new between 1985 and 2006.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

The rear license plate does not state the city where the Primo comes from.
A visual glitch exists with the Primo. If one headlight is broken, the texture of the other headlight reverts to its "off" state, but the beam of light still shines.

Grand Theft Auto V and Online

The player can modify the Primo to look like the Spanish Lords Primo V8 Supercharged from GTA IV. Its trim and grille, however, cannot be painted.
When changing the wheel color on custom rims, if the mesh grille is equipped, the grille will be the same color as the rims.
There is a bug with the Primo: when applying custom rims on the car (exposing the brakes), the calipers glow the same way as the vehicle's lights. It is more evident at night time, particularly in dark areas.

+The '''Primo''' is a [[:Category:Sedans|four-door sedan]] appearing in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'', ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'', ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]'', It is manufactured by [[Albany]] in the [[HD Universe]].
-==3D Universe==
+==Influence==
+===''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas''===
-===Design===
+In ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'', the Primo resembles a {{WP|Toyota Camry#V20 (1986–1992)|1986–1990 Toyota Camry}} and a {{WP|Nissan Gloria#Eighth generation Y31|1987–1991 Nissan Gloria Y31}}.
-In GTA San Andreas, the Primo is one of the better sedans available in the game, although its design is less unremarkable and thus appears more generic in traffic. It resembles a [[wp:Toyota Carina#Fourth generation .281984.E2.80.931988.29 T150 series|Fourth Generation Toyota Carina]], [[wp:Toyota Cressida#Third generation .28X70.3B 1984.E2.80.931988.29|Third Generation Toyota Cressida]], [[wp:Toyota Camry#Second generation (V20; 1986–1990)|1987-1990 Toyota Camry]] or [[wp:Honda Accord|1985 Honda Accord]] sedan to some extent. Ideas from the [[wp:Proton Saga First Generation|Proton Saga (Saloon)]] were also believed to have contributed to the Primo in GTA San Andreas, though not really obviously. It somewhat has the style of a [[wp:Chrysler LeBaron|1989-1991 Chrysler LeBaron]] in side quarter panel not very noticeable though. It may also be based off the [[wp:Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera|Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera]].

+In the HD Universe, the Primo is primarily based on the {{WP|Cadillac Seville#Fourth generation (1992–1997)|1992–1997 Cadillac Seville}}, with the grille, front headlights, and tail lights similar to the {{WP|Cadillac Allanté|1987–1993 Cadillac Allante}}, and dimensions and some additional design elements taken from the {{WP|Toyota Crown#Tenth generation (S150; 1995)|tenth-generation Toyota Crown}}.

-===Performance===
+==Design==
+===''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas''===
-The Primo is one of the most dependable vehicles in the game, possessing good handling as a result of its lighter weight, fair acceleration and a decent top speed. For that, it is an ideal choice for doing drive-by's against enemy gangs. While relatively acceptable under normal driving conditions, the Primo's axle width may make the car less stable in bumpy conditions. It sports a 3.0 Liter V6 with a horsepower range of 260 HP or a 2.5 Liter 4 cylinder with 200 HP. It has a smaller drivetrain it is RWD for the 3.0 Liter and FWD for the 2.5 Liter. It is capable of a top speed of 130 mph for V6 versions and 126 mph for 4 cylinder versions.
+The Primo is one of the better sedans available in the game, although its design is less remarkable and thus appears more generic in traffic. It has square lights, a small grille, medium-sized bumpers and black inner pillars. Primos are set to spawn in single colors.
+===''Grand Theft Auto IV''===
-The Primo can be found mostly anywhere in the [[State of San Andreas]].
+In ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'', the Primo is designed as a standard middle-of-the-road sedan, the Primo borrows most of the design traits from its previous iteration, but features a slightly larger front end and is generally rounded on the edges. The front bumper features a license plate and front-facing fog lamps, while the grille features the corresponding Albany badges.
+The sides make use of flared wheel arches and side yellow marker lights, as well as black inner pillars and black square rear-view mirrors on the greenhouse area. Its wheelbase appears to be lower, giving it a somewhat sportier appearance.
+The rear of the car is somewhat identical to its previous rendition, but features a red light strip surrounding the turn and reverse lights from both sides and passing above the license plate, while the trunk features a small lip and the corresponding badges, also displaying the car's name. The rear bumper features two lower mouldings for the exhausts.
+Primos may appear in a single-tone color or with two-tone colors, where the secondary color is applier to the lower portions and the flat sections of the sides and rear end. An additional tertiary color is present for the strips running through the bumpers and the doors, the grille, the trim on the fenders and around the windows, the roof and the rims. It uses a set of wheels consisting of a flat disk with triangle/star shaped patterns on it.
+The Primo is equipped with a [[GPS]] system with a male voice, but only if the player leaves the "selected cars" (default) option in the audio menu.
+===''Grand Theft Auto V'' and ''Online''===
+In ''[[Grand Theft Auto V]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto Online]]'', the Primo retains the same design as in ''GTA IV'', but with a few tweaks on the interior and the rear window.
+Color distribution is the same as before, but the interior stitching matches with the primary color and the details were permanently set to chrome, no longer receiving a tertiary color. The Primo's wheel design were carried over from ''GTA IV'', and is also shared with the [[Seminole]].

+===''Grand Theft Auto IV''===
+In ''[[Grand Theft Auto IV]]'', its engine gives it an immense top speed, on par with full-on sports cars. The Primo's underpinning is its body roll and small, weak brakes. The Primo's acceleration and handling are also poor and un-sporty and it suffers from a problem similar to the [[Emperor (car)|Emperor]] in which the rear swings frenziedly on sharp turns - but even worse, the car feels heavily planted on the ground, therefore, if the turning is done smoothly, the Primo will do a very wide turn, the only possible workarounds are to start drifting yards before where the desired turn is or to slow down. This car is thus very unfavorable for driving at high speeds, leading this vehicle to be better suited towards missions where a getaway vehicle is not required, friend "hangouts" and city driving. Due to its sturdy build, the Primo is able to take a few direct frontal hits without stalling or setting alight.
+The Primo is stated to be powered by a supercharged V8. The engine cover itself is relatively long, sharing the same initial design as the marked-out V8 engine covers found on various other sedans and SUVs, however no indication of cylinder count is marked on the cover. Under the cover are 4 exhaust manifolds on the left hand side of the model, but a complete lack of any manifolds on the opposing side. The engine is coupled to a 5-speed gearbox in a front engine, rear wheel drive configuration. The engine sound is the same as the [[Vincent]]'s. Unlike its real life counterpart, it is rear-wheel drive, rather than front-wheel drive.

+===''Grand Theft Auto V'' and ''Online''===
+The performance of the Primo seems to be the same as in ''GTA IV'', with the exception that it is mostly outclassed by other similar cars. However, it retains its resistance to crashes and an unusually competitive stance in its class, especially for a car of its price range.
+Again, the Primo is powered by what appears to be a V8 engine. With the "Low Level Spoiler" modification installed, the "Supercharged V8" badging may be present on the rear end.

-It comes with a stock ABS system. On head-on collisions, it is usually worst when damaging the front axle as compared to a rear collision that is less likely to damage the rear axle. Side axle collisions are safest of all even though it may cause more damage. The vehicle is not likely to tip over when it is closer to the ground and when medium loaded at about 4,200 lbs. The car is also unlikely to catch fire or explode in cases of accidents. Despite causing a bit more damages <span style="font-style: normal; ">when shooting on it as</span><span style="font-style: normal; "> compared to </span><span style="font-style: normal; ">melee weapons</span>, it is still hard for the car to be destroyed.

+Primoengine.jpg|Engine close-up in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]''.
-In GTA IV, the [[Albany]] Primo retains its four-door sedan design, similar to the [http://all-carz.com/photos/mitsubishi-sigma-2000-glx-wagon/01/default.htm Mitsubishi Sigma 2000] with the grill and front headlights of the [[wp:Cadillac Allanté|1987-1993 Cadillac Allante]] coupe in real life, especially in the head and tail lights. It is also influenced by the [[wp:Plymouth Acclaim|1989-94 Plymouth Acclaim]] and [[wp:Chrysler Saratoga|Chrysler Saratoga]], or a first generation [[Wp:Fiat Croma|Fiat Croma]], and [[Wp:Lancia Thema|Lancia Thema]]. In GTA V, the Primo retains this design.

-===Performance===
+==Variants==
+{{Variant
-In GTA IV, the Primo is most likely powered by a 4.6L V8 (in real life it would be the [[wp:Northstar engine series#LD8|Northstar LD8]]). This potent power-plant gives the Primo an immense top speed of 187 mph(300km/h), on par with full-on sports cars. [[File:Primo_badges.png|thumb]]The Primo's underpinning is it's body roll and small, weak brakes. The Primo's acceleration and handling are also poor and un-sporty and it suffers from a problem similar to the [[Emperor (car)|Emperor]] in which the rear swings frenziedly on sharp turns - but even worse, the car feels heavily planted on the ground, therefore, if the turning is done smoothly, the Primo will do a very wide turn, the only possible workarounds are to start drifting yards before where the desired turn is or to slow down. This car is thus very unfavorable for driving at high speeds, leading this vehicle to be better suited towards missions where a getaway vehicle is not required, friend "hangouts" and city driving.

+{{Clr}}
+===Special Variants===
+*There is a special "Supercharged" variant of the Primo which features a "Supercharged V8" badge on its deck-lid. The supercharged Primo is lowered with added ground effects and a spoiler. It always comes in maroon, and is the vehicle of choice for members of the [[Spanish Lords]]. Despite the "Supercharged V8" badge, it has the same performance as the regular Primo, and sounds just like the regular Primo. The Supercharged V8 Primo can usually be found driven in and around Spanish Lords territory, including [[Cerveza Heights]], [[South Bohan]], [[East Holland]] and southern [[Alderney City]]. If this variant really had improved performance, the engine would most likely be based on the real life {{WP|Northstar engine series|Northstar Supercharged LC3}}. The "supercharged" Primo shares its trunk spoiler with the [[DF8-90]] V8 Turbo.
+<gallery position="center" spacing="small" widths="270px" hideaddbutton="true">

-===Variants===
-There are two different styles of Primo. There is a standard middle-of-the-road sedan, and there is also one with a special "Supercharged V8" badge on its deck-lid. The supercharged Primo is lowered with added ground effects and a spoiler. It always comes in maroon, and is the vehicle of choice for members of the [[Spanish Lords]]. Despite the "Supercharged V8" badge, it has the same performance as the regular Primo, and sounds just like the regular Primo, which leads us to believe that the effects are purely cosmetic. The Supercharged V8 Primo can usually be found driven in and around Spanish Lords territory, including [[Cerveza Heights]], [[South Bohan]], [[East Holland]] and southern [[Alderney City]]. If this variant really had improved performance, the engine would most likely be based on the real life [[wp:Northstar engine series#Supercharged_LC3|Northstar Supercharged LC3]].

+===General===
-*In GTA IV, the "supercharged" Primo shares its trunk spoiler with the [[DF8-90]] V8 Turbo.
-*After collecting all thirty cars for [[Stevie]], he agrees to purchase cars from [[Niko Bellic]], with the Primo fetching $1,800.
-*The Primo was originally the [[Ballas (3D Universe)|gang car]] in GTA San Andreas.
-*The Primo plays the following radio stations by default when entered:
-**'''''GTA San Andreas''''': [[Bounce FM]] or [[K Rose]].
-**'''''GTA IV''''': [[Electro-Choc]] or [[Radio Broker]].
 *"Primo" either means raw, as in materials, or cousin in Spanish and Portuguese.
-*It also means in Italian "first" or "prime."
+**It also means "first" or "prime" in Italian.
+**Additionally, the etymology of the Primo may deviate from the {{WC|midnightclub|Primo|character of the same name}} in Rockstar's ''{{WC|midnightclub|Midnight Club II}}'', who drives the {{WC|midnightclub|Schneller V8}}, a 4-door sedan similar in design to the Primo.
-*Supercharged V8 Primo's can be seen in the [[Drug Wars]] in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]] with special paintjobs, not seen anywhere else.
+*Primo was the name of the division of Honda dealerships in Japan where the models that the original ''San Andreas'' version of the car was based on were exclusively sold new between 1985 and 2006.
-*Another [[Rockstar Games]] game, Midnight Club 2, has a character named Primo.
+===''Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas''===
+*The rear license plate does not state the city where the Primo comes from.
+*A visual glitch exists with the Primo. If one headlight is broken, the texture of the other headlight reverts to its "off" state, but the beam of light still shines.
+===''Grand Theft Auto V'' and ''Online''===
+*The player can modify the Primo to look like the [[Spanish Lords]] Primo V8 Supercharged from [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]]. Its trim and grille, however, cannot be painted.
+*When changing the wheel color on custom rims, if the mesh grille is equipped, the grille will be the same color as the rims.
+*There is a bug with the Primo: when applying custom rims on the car (exposing the brakes), the calipers glow the same way as the vehicle's lights. It is more evident at night time, particularly in dark areas.
