The scene in which Carlita calls Gator after the sour deal is taken almost verbatim from a scene in Heat, where Robert De Niro's character calls a businessman who has just screwed him on a deal.
Michael Madsen provides the voice for Tanner, an undercover cop. Madsen also voiced a character in Grand Theft Auto 3, in which the main character has to kill an undercover cop named Tanner.
As revenge for Rockstar having a joke at the way Tanner is animated in Grand Theft Auto 3 Reflections Interactive decided to have hidden characters called Timmy Vermicelli after Tommy Vercetti from Grand Theft Auto - Vice City, which you have to find and kill. To add even more insult Reflections gave the these characters inflatable armbands
to take the mickey out of the fact that you drown if you go in the water in Grand Theft Auto - Vice City but in Driver 3 you can swim. The Timmy Vermicellis even drown if you knock them in the water.
