The Torino is an iconic Argentinian car. Made by IKA (Industrias Kaiser Argentina) and designed by Pininfarina in 1966. The 3d model and the dashboard presented for Stunts are from the street version but the performance ingame is accurated for Turismo Carretera (TC) version. It possess a unique feature: a spare tire on the trunk. The GS model, which its nomenclature refers to the term Grand Sport, was introduced between the years 1970 - 1976 and stood out for presenting higher performance.

Turismo Carretera is a popular stock car racing series from Argentina and the oldest auto racing series still active in the world having its inaugural season in 1937. Since the 70's the same four cars have been kept: Ford Falcon, Chevrolet Chevy, IKA Torino and Dodge GTX.

Torino participated in 1969 Nürburgring 84 hours "Marathon de la Route". It was a race in which Torino excelled against brands such as Lancia, BMW, Mazda, Volvo, Mercedes, Alfa Romeo, Porsche, Ford and Triumph. Torino was the one who completed the most laps with 334, but due to penalties only 315 were counted and finished in fourth position behind Lancia (332 laps), BMW (319 laps) and Triumph (315 laps). It was a milestone for the Argentinian automobile industry and great publicity. The 8th paintjob is a tribute for this feat.
