The Falconer is a vehicle in Mafia.
Design[]
The Falconer is, during its debut early in Mafia's storyline, a top-of-the-line late-1920s/1930 sedan superior to the Bolt Ace, Bolt Model B, Bolt V8 and Schubert Six. Being similar in body design, however, the car may be confused with the Schubert Six, but can be identified by its baby blue or violet body color.
Influence[]
The Falconer is based on the 1930 Studebaker Dictator.
Performance[]
Both the Falconer, Falconer Yellowcar and Falconer Gangster share the exact same attributes in performance, as indicated below from the Carcyclopedia:
- Weight: 1520 kg
- Power: 80 hp
- Maximum speed: 72 mph
- Engine: Six cylinder
- Swept volume: 3956 ccm
- Gear box: Four speed, mechanical
Availability[]
From the start of the game's storyline, the Falconer appears standard in vehicle traffic, even to the point the Yellowcar is the vehicle that Tommy Angelo drives in An Offer You Can't Refuse.
Although it is implied Tommy should know how to steal one from the get go as he has driven a Falconer Yellowcar, it is only after the player gains access to a regular Falconer that Tommy is able to lockpick and steal one. The earliest occasion when the player can gain a Falconer is during Molotov Party, when an unlocked blue Falconer can be taken from the garage of Morello's Lounge Bar; it is only after the mission, during Ordinary Routine, that Tommy gains the ability to lockpick a Falconer after indicating to Ralph that he knows how to steal one through his taxi. If the player opts not to steal the car during Molotov Party, Tommy will only be able to lockpick Falconers after the beginning of The Whore.
The Falconers no longer spawn in traffic in the game's storyline from Great Deal! onward.
Notable Owners[]
- Frank Colletti owns a Falconer, which he gives to Tommy in the beginning of The Whore.

Trivia[]
- Should the player obtain and store the Falconer from Molotov Party and talk to Ralph in the beginning of the next mission, Ordinary Routine, Ralph will incorrectly describe the car as having "almost 60 horsepower" and a "four speeds" gearbox. However, Ralph is more accurate stating the car could go up to 75 miles per hour and adds the car features "break servos".
