Upon reading Adam’s assessment of the fresh Audi S4, a nimble sedan with the appeal of a vehicle one might reluctantly pick up from a rental depot at the airport, my initial notion veered towards “escape vehicle.” What do you believe would serve as the most suitable car for a bank heist?
My preferred heist film remains The Transporter, featuring Jason Statham and (fleetingly) his manual BMW 7 Series. I remain unfazed by Rotten Tomatoes’ judgment; the pursuits are exceptional, as is the accompanying soundtrack. Although Ronin merits mention for its organized-crime film car chases, with a spotlight on sophisticated German sedans.
Naturally, those narratives transpire in Europe, where BMWs and Audis abound. Should one intend to execute a bank robbery in the United States, Ryan Gosling and Bryan Cranston’s inconspicuous Chevy Impala concocted for Drive appears to be the prudent choice.
Essentially, one seeks covert performance with ample space for the crew and the loot. Baby Driver‘s vibrant WRX might pose challenges in stealth maneuvering under the cover of darkness (although a strategy for that scenario was outlined in the film, if memory serves correctly).
If pressed to make a personal selection, I might introduce a twist and propose: A customized GMT800. Acquire an aged Chevy Suburban, retaining the previous owner’s body imperfections, paint wear, and family decals but upgrading the tires, marginally reducing height, enhancing power, and fortifying the front bumper for situations requiring police vehicle evasion tactics.
Navigating the alleys of Nice, France might prove daunting with such a vehicle… but my heist strategy unfolds in middle America, affording the opportunity to vanish amidst cornfields and blend seamlessly within the typical suburban parking lot environment.
