The Monroe is a 2-door sports classic car in GTA V manufactured by Pegassi and it is heavily based on the Lamborghini Miura. It also has a few elements of the Ford GT40 and the 1969 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The front of this car looks very similar to the GT40 with the height being a little lower. The headlights are just like the GT40’s and the tail lights are circular just like the 1969 Corvette Stingray.
The rest of the body takes inspiration from the design of the Miura, especially the doors all the way up to the front grille. Even the ride height and the back glass are similar to the Lamborghini Miura. This vehicle has a racing steering wheel with vintage interiors and a wood paneled dashboard on which the meters are fitted.
The Monroe is a very impressive sports classic car with a high top speed that almost touches 130mph. Acceleration of this vehicle is also above average as it can reach up to 60 mph in less than 5 seconds. However, a great amount of understeer can be felt when driving at high speeds. Slowing down is necessary while making turns even on highways or the car will run into a barrier or an oncoming vehicle on highways without dividers.
The Monroe is powered by a V12 just like its real-life counterpart, however according to the specifications mentioned in the game the Monroe is powered by a 3.7L engine coupled with a 5-speed gearbox and rear wheel drive layout.
