Best vehicle in the Grand Theft Auto series?

Bobcat was prone to tipping, made me die too often.
Give me something with a good wheelbase and speed, like the Stinger in GTAIII, or the plain police car... take a lot of damage before they both blow up, too.
In Vice City, PCJ all the way.
In San Andreas, BICYCLE. Pedal-by shootings are going to rule.

...that and they (especially the police car) have an almost SUV-like roll over rate.
The top 3 cars in GTA3 are definitely the Cheetah, Stinger and Mafia Sentinel.. in that order. The Infernus would be on that list but it loses control too easily at high speed.
In VC and overall as mentioned before, it's all about the PJC. I never use anything else, even on missions, unless its absolutely required.

All those new fangled vehicles are pretty weak compared to the obvious winner:

I haven't played the PS1 games, but my selections are...
GTA3: Taxi. I loved the control on them, especially their ability to easily back up and do a 180 real fast. They were so versatile and resilient, just perfect for the variety of jobs n the game. The only time they were a problem was when I needed serious speed, at those times I would use a Stinger.
Vice City: COMET! I have pulled some CRAZY stuff in Comets, their controls are amazing. They blow up pretty easily though, so sometimes I'll use the slightly tougher (and far mroe common) Cheetah. Cheetahs are also better at high speed 90 degree turns if you know how to use the hand brake right. Of course sometimes you need to use a bike, with the PCJ being the obvious choice there.

I always wanted to be in a Cheetah, or Infernus, and sometimes a Banshee for aesthetics, but for missions & killing sprees, it was usually a Taxi, or any other solid middle sized car that could take a decent pounding

I've barely played GTAIII so I can't comment on it.
For GTAVC my favorites are:
The Comet is easily my favorite regular vehicle in the game. As someone mentioned, you can do some crazy stuff with them. I was even able to get inside of the golf course with one by riding up a hill near the pedestrian bridge just past the main entrance. It made that mission where you have to catch that guy in the golf cart a hell of a lot easier.
The Rhino (the tank). Pure mayhem.
The Hunter (the army chopper). Pure mayhem x1000. This is what I would probably consider the best vehicle in the series.

The Hunter was great once I figured out how to get the police bribes in Vice City West (near the Hatian and Cuban parts) without getting out of the vehicle and that the gun was useful in not drawing police attention. No need in drawing multiple helicopters when I've actually crashed because I hit a damn helicopter. As a matter of fact, I might go play some right now.

The cop cars were easily the best vehicle in GTA3, in VC this wasn't quite as true.
My favorite car in the whole series is the Sabre Turbo.
