The Maibatsu Penumbra FF is a sports car featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Los Santos Summer Special update.
Influence
The Penumbra FF is primarily based on the second-generation Mitsubishi Eclipse. The headlights appear to be slimmer than the Eclipse's, and their shape and clusters were inspired by the 1996–1998 Nissan Skyline (R33). The front bumper is borrowed from the 1995–1998 Honda Integra Type R (DC2). The roof line seems to follow the third-generation Eclipse. The tail light setup and the rear name badge placement are similar to the second-gen Eclipse, but the shape is modeled after the first-generation Eclipse. Unlike the Eclipse, the reversing lights are placed on the main tail light units as opposed to the rear bumper, giving them a resemblance to those found on the third-generation Toyota Supra (A70). While its name may hint a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout like the standard Eclipse, the car actually possesses an all-wheel-drive layout, making it similar to the GSX trim level available for the first two generations of the Eclipse.
Design
The vehicle assumes the same layout and shape from the Penumbra but inherits a classic design, where the front end features a central grille with a horizontal line on it, followed by two small square intakes on the edges. Above the bumper, a set of square lamps and turn signals can be seen, located in silver/chrome housings. The manufacturer emblem can be seen on the centre. The side denotes a simplistic layout, featuring large skirts separated by thin ridges. On the cabin area, plastic trim can be seen around the windows, with coloured mirrors on the A-pillars. The rear of the car is distinguished by the red strip displaying its name in silver lettering, along with other badges on the curved upper area. Both the strip and the tail lamps are surrounded by a plastic fitting. The bumper is relatively flat and has two mouldings for the exhausts, yet it only has a driver-side dual square exhaust by default. The interior of the car reuses the same dial and textures from the Banshee.
The primary colour of the car is applied to the body and engine cover, while the secondary colour is applied on the interior stitching and the engine cam cover (the driver-side portion of the same). A trim colour is also available for the portions around the small dials and instruments located in the central panel. Although normally coloured black and not accessible outside of Content Creator, the dials support a separate colour, and one of the sets assign a yellow colour for both the trim and the dials. Its wheels bear the same rim design as the "Ice Kid" sport wheels available in Los Santos Customs and other mod shops, wrapped in low-profile tyres. The rims can also support a dedicated colour, although this is only possible in Content Creator.
Performance
The car is powered by a transversely-laid Inline-4 engine, coupled to a five-speed gearbox in an F4 layout, again stated by the badges to be a 2.6 liter turbocharged engine, like the Penumbra. The engine sound is shared from cars like the Kuruma and the Kuruma (Armored).
