Red fastback coupe with twin round lamps

Name not confirmed

What the community calls it

Widely identified as the Grotti Carbonizzare.

A community list puts a red Grotti Carbonizzare in the Ocean Drive scene, and separates it from the blue car in the same shot. Ours is the red car there. It is their identification and not ours. On 23 September 2026 a second source, GTA Wiki, was found to crop the same vehicle out of the same shot under the same name. That is what puts the name in this page's title, as their claim and not ours: two independent sources, one of them pointing at our own frame.

What supports it

  • The source gives both colour and scene and both hold: the red car in the Ocean Drive scene at 0:32-0:33.
  • The list explicitly distinguishes it from the blue Invetero Coquette D10 in the same scene, so the red one is pointed at unambiguously.
  • GTA Wiki crops the same car out of the same shot, a little wider than ours: the white car alongside and the pair of round lamps in a black housing at the near corner of the tail, the feature our crop shows most clearly.

What does not

  • What our crop shows most clearly -- a pair of round lamps in a black housing at the near corner of the tail -- is not a feature the source names or uses.
  • The source gives no badge and no other body detail as grounds.
  • The list credits no source and its column of real-world counterparts is demonstrably wrong in places.
  • GTA Wiki calls the trailer car a 'beta' Carbonizzare and says a redesign appeared in leaked footage. The identification of this car rests on the trailer and on resemblance to the GTA V model; what the leak shows is not on this page.

Read on GTA-XTREME, September 18, 2026. They name this picture: “The red Grotti Carbonizzare stands out in the Ocean Drive hotel scene at 0:33” -- our trailer-1-t00-32_57 is that scene, and this is the red car in it. The identification is theirs, not ours.

Read on GTA Wiki (gta.wiki), September 23, 2026. They name this picture: Carbonizzare-GTAVI-Trailer1.png, “The rear of a beta Carbonizzare along Shore Drive” (0:31): the red coupe from the rear quarter with the white car alongside -- the same car as in our trailer-1-t00-32_57, cropped a little wider from the same shot. The identification is theirs, not ours.

Read on GTABase, September 23, 2026. They name the vehicle but no picture, so they confirm that it exists and not that it is the one in our frame. The identification is theirs, not ours.

We have not confirmed this. Our confidence in the identification: low.

When the real name is confirmed, this page moves to that name and this address keeps working.

The source frame, with the Red fastback coupe with twin round lamps marked
The red coupe from the rear quarter at 0:32.57: a fastback roofline into a short tail, two round lamps in a black housing at the near corner, a mesh vent below them, the rear wing swelling over a black spoked wheel, and the white wedge-shaped car in front hiding the lower body

Trailer 1 · 0:32.57 · rear three quarter · 537 × 324 px © Rockstar Games The whole frame at 3840 × 2160, scaled down to fit — never enlarged. The box marks the crop exactly as we measured it, and that crop is the detail alongside, at its true size.

A red coupe from the rear quarter in Trailer 1, with two round lamps sunk into a black housing at the near corner of its tail and a white wedge-shaped car close in front of it.

A low red coupe from the rear quarter, its nose pointing away from the camera, with a white car close in front of it. The roofline runs back without a break into a short tail, and the rear screen is laid almost flat.

At the near corner of the tail a black housing holds two round lamps, paired close together, each with a pale centre. Beside the housing the tail is red, and the far corner is hidden behind the door mirror and roof of the white car in front, so whether it carries a matching pair is not something this crop shows. Until 23 September 2026 this page had a full-width black panel with two lamps a side; the frame supports the near pair and nothing wider. Below the lamps the bumper carries a mesh vent, and the rear wing swells out over the wheel before tucking back in.

The near rear wheel shows at the right edge of the crop, a black rim with thin spokes. The lower body is hidden by the white car, a wedge-shaped car whose roof, side window and door mirror fill the left of the crop, and someone sits behind that side window. The red flank carries pink reflections. The paint reads as a crimson red, with a touch of blue in it rather than orange, deepening to a dark red in the shadow under the wing; until 26 September this page called it slightly orange and near black in the shadow.

How to recognise it

  • Unbroken fastback roofline running into a short tail with a near-flat rear screen
  • Two round lamps paired close together in a black housing at the near corner of the tail
  • Red tail beside the housing; the far corner hidden by the car in front
  • Mesh vent in the rear bumper below the lamps
  • Rear wing that swells over the wheel and tucks back in
  • Black rims with thin spokes
  • Solid crimson paint, no stripes or graphics

The frame it comes from

The frame is Trailer 1 at 0:32.57. It is 3840 by 2160, and the vehicle occupies 537 by 324 of it. Also in it: Ocean Drive at night, a cyan open-top sports car, and '95 Grotti Cheetah.

What we still do not know

  • The make and model. There is no badge in the crop.
  • The front of the car, which points away from the camera.
  • Whether the far corner of the tail carries a matching pair of lamps.
  • Everything measured: top speed, handling, where it spawns
