I think the lines slope down/frontward are a little too steep, but all in all i think it is a sexy beast. I would get that over any other wagon in a heartbeat. Definately a step up from the minivans and wagons of today. I like it.

Halx · 11-13-2003, 12:21 PM

Now that's a bitchin' car. That has MOBSTER written all over it. Very balanced. Whew! Is it hot in here or is it that car?

thadon · 11-13-2003, 01:25 PM

that is one aggressive and bad ass looking car, I hope they build a version of it

bender · 11-13-2003, 01:32 PM

I think that we're seeing the return of the station wagon crossed with a bit of the S.U.V attitude.

spanky_pete · 11-13-2003, 03:23 PM

Build it Build Build it

Chrysler sure has been pumping out some awesome looking vehicles lately. Too bad they are all out of my price range once they hit the consumer market.

bundy · 11-13-2003, 05:13 PM

i love how the wheels look massive, and the wagon shapes down slightly at the back.
i like this car, but it´ll never make Australian shores.

bennyb · 11-13-2003, 07:10 PM

OMfg that is the ugliest car i have ever seen. it looks like they took the hood of a RAM, and put it on a nissan murano. Wow, it might have some power but at the expense of digging your own eyes out at its uglyness. I might just buy it so i wouldn't have to look at one from outside of it :P

Kurant · 11-14-2003, 06:40 AM

This car was a concept 2 years ago, it's now a production vehicle, due out mid next year. I've heard it's been pushed back, but as far as I've read, mid next year. It is a car that is planned for production.

They had it in concept in mid 2001, introduced it this year at the LA Auto Show, and anounced production at the same time.

A man station wagon....finally

pocon1 · 11-15-2003, 05:14 PM

If the price is ok, me and the little wifey would like to get one a couple of years from now. I think the supercharged hemi is awesome, and the test in Car & Driver a few months back put the 1/4 mile at I think 13.5, about as fast as the base corvette. People at work tease me about my wrx wagon, but I think even they would shit a brick after seeing this car.

yellowgowild · 11-15-2003, 08:13 PM

It looks like the designers couldn't decide on what kind of car they were making so they blended everything together. It's a decent car but I wouldn't buy it.

wrongfullyaccuzd · 11-17-2003, 01:18 AM

you said it Halx. that's a mob car.

Wingless · 11-17-2003, 08:08 PM

So.... that thing got a Hemi?!?

zfleebin · 11-17-2003, 11:49 PM

Wingless: Damn right. its gotta Hemi with a whipple supercharger on it.

Thats why I would like one.

JusticeForPhat · 11-18-2003, 07:52 PM

reminds me of the old school chevy big block station wagons. Its an interesting throwback to the old days with a much better interior. Practical styling with massive power.

As far as mods go, swap some pulleys and this thing should be melting tires all over the place.
