The Chrysler 700c minivan (concept)

I can't decide if it's sleek or overstyled.

I owned a minivan for a long time (Ford Windstar) and the comfort factor of a minivan really makes up for the fact that you're driving - a minivan.

My SUV is OK but on long trips it's not the same. I have a crush on the Honda Pilot (seats 8 and looks better than a minivan) but I'd have to get one used.

This bad boy (if the production model is just as cool) may be what I'm looking for.






What do you think guys? Cool or Crappy?

i like it. it looks sleek

The front view looked fine...but that back view leaves much to be desired.

It's better looking than most family cars.

I think the wheels need to be less flashy and more streamlined looking. Maybe even black wheels.

Give me a Black one like that, some spinning Rims and Gin & Juice...I'd be laid back driving down the street with my watermelon Head hanging out the window...

Usually it's the other way around.

No. If it's going to be a minivan, just drive a full on minivan. There's no trying to hide it.

Volkswagen went with that mentality with the Routan.



Didn't quite get the results they expected.

Your Odyssey DOESN'T fit the bill of a typical minivan. It's sleek. It's stylized. Not really "hiding" it, but rather taking the concept to another level.

I missed your Tesla thread I think. They certainly are easy on the eyes.

I wouldn't drive ANY minvan.

Not even one designed to look like a sports car?

That looks like a giant microwave. With wheels.

I'd splurge for the Honda Pilot. You'll get more miles out of it in the long run.

Not even a brand new taxes paid delivered to your Front door FREE one?

Unfortunately, American cars usually means:

I'd sell that sucker for something I could deal with...

I am single with no kids... there is no reason for me to putter around in one of those hideous boxes.

..LOL....Now we're on the same page...Sell that mug....Be sure to have a picture taken of yourself sitting inside the box BEFORE you sell it, that way you can convince the Prize-Patrol that you are riding around town...

I always laugh when I hear that...

I've had 3 Chevrolet Camaros in my driving life:

• I got a 1979 in 1986 and drove it until 1994.
• I got a 1995 in 1994 (brand new ) and drove it until 2011
• I now own a 2010, and plan on driving IT for a while.

Well, congratulations...


...still doesn't change the fact that it's made out of cheap plastic, won't drive around corners, looks like a Skoda on the inside, and the engine size to power and fuel consumption ratio has not developed since the mid 80s and is a bit ridiculous, to say the least.

I can still understand the appeal of a muscle car though (although I'd never want one) - they look sporty, are fast on a straight line, have loud, massive engines and don't cost too much for all that.

But an American minivan? There are hardly worse choices, when you're looking for a practical car...
