The Vigero is one of a few cars in that can be found as a beater - a rusted out version of the original car with bent, rusted and dented bumpers, rotted weatherstripping, missing/broken door windows, duct-tape sealing around the pillars and channels of the windscreen, side-windows and A-B Pillar channel, and dirty/torn seats and damaged dashboard components on the interior.
The lower area consist of a flat silver/chrome bumper and the central license plate below it, as well as dual exhaust pipes below the car's bodywork. The rear end of the car consist of a black panel with a silver/chrome horizontal divider on the center, separating the upper main/brake lights from the lower turn/reverse lights on the outer edges.
A radio antenna can be seen on the driver side of the trunk area, right next to the trunk compartment.
The cabin is relatively simple and features silver/chrome trim around the windows and on the inner pillars. The sides of the car are rather simple, having slight flares on the arches and silver/chrome details at the bottom, as well as circular rear-view mirrors mounted over the front fenders. The hood has an intake bulge on the center. The front of the car features dual open sections and a small silver/chrome bumper on the lower side, as well as a rectangle-shaped grille and dual circular headlights on the upper side, the latter being located in black housings and surrounded by a silver/chrome detail. The Vigero is a muscle car which inherits the general design and role previously filled by the Sabre in the 3D Universe (as the GTA IV Sabre is redesigned into a more modern sports coupe). Interestingly, the car also features front-fender mirrors, a design mostly found on Japanese cars in the 1960s and 1970s. The rear and front fenders feature "VL1" badging, clearly imitating Chevrolet's ZL1 engine model. The "Vigero by Declasse" badge featured on the grille and rear portion references the real-life "Camaro by Chevrolet" badge, while the "Super Sport" badging on the sides is a nod to the Chevrolet's SS performance marker. The Vigero essentially resembles a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro in the front bumper, cowls induction hoods, wheel wells, and boxy rear, but it replaces the heavily creased lines with softer ones and a less pointed grille, while the rear and front fascia take cues from the 1st Gen Pontiac Firebird and Mk.1 Toyota Celica.
