Knight Firebrand #84

Weak cornering caused by severe understeer means that the Knight Firebrand relies heavily on its straight line speed in order to remain competitive. In that respect, the Firebrand can tussle with the best cars Class C has to offer - just don't expect it to do well in a small, country village.

Obtaining

The Knight Firebrand can be obtained through the "Hijack a Car" and "Steal Car from Showroom" Grand Theft Auto crimes. It is obtained about 5% of the time (or roughly one time for every 20 successes) from "Hijack a Car." It can only be obtained from "Steal Car from Showroom" when a player's Nerve bar is 40 or less. [1]

It is unknown if the Knight Firebrand can be obtained through the Mechanic Shop 5* special, "Junkyard Dog." [2]

The Knight Firebrand cannot be found through city finds but can be traded between players.

Knight Firebrand can be received as reward when landing on the "Mystery Gift" portion of the Wheel of Mediocrity.

Historical Notes

The Knight Firebrand was previously known as the "Pontiac Firebird," which is a real-life vehicle. It was updated to its current fictionalized brand on 30 July 2024 [3] due to trademark concerns. [4]
