Cars are the first thing many players think about when they hear the Grand Theft Auto franchise. Even the first concept of the series was based on stealing and selling hijacked vehicles. In GTA 5 and GTA Online, Rockstar Games pushes the collectible rides to a whole new level. Today, we'll take a look at an icon, a car that has been in the game since GTA: San Andreas - the Annis ZR350 GTA 5.

The ZR350 first appeared in GTA: San Andreas.

Annis ZR350 GTA 5 Online design and performance

The ZR350, previously known as ZR-350, is a two-door sports car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online. It was introduced as part of the 1.57 Los Santos Tuners update in July 2021, along with the speedy Karin Calico. In the HD Universe (the third and current canonical universe of the Grand Theft Auto series), the ZR350 is manufactured by Annis.

Regarding its performance, the Annis ZR350 GTA 5 reaches an actual top speed of  117.50 mph (189.10 km/h). It's one of the fastest Tuner cars in GTA 5 Online at the moment.

However, according to the game files, the Annis ZR350 top speed is just 93.08 mph (149.80 km/h). The ZR350 struggles a little bit when compared to others in its class like the Jester RR.

Annis ZR350 in real life

Annis ZR350 real-life inspiration is 1992-2002 Mazda RX-7 (FD), similar to its appearance in GTA San Andreas. From a technical standpoint, its design shares many similarities with the real RX-7. You can notice the features like the engine bay, which depicts a rotary engine.
This vehicle resembles the real Mazda RX-7, the car that Dominic Toretto once drives in the Fast&Furious.

However, Rockstar Games also adds a few touches that they seem to borrow from other models.

  • Taillights: Similar to those on the Mazda MX-5 Miata (NB2). However, the bulb housings are surrounded in black instead of red.
  • Headlights: The headlight housing area resembles that on the RX-7 with influences from the 1990-1997 Mazda MX-5 Miata (NA).
  • Interior: The inside of the Annis ZR350 looks similar to that of the Banshee 900R and the Penumbra FF. It's essentially white/paintable variations of the one used in the Banshee.
To bring it a new look, you can tune the ZR350 at mod shop to fit your likings.
