Chrysler Pacifica Hellcat

thebmw · 08-07-2022, 01:55 PM

We ended up getting an Audi SUV because it had more rear legroom than the BMW SUVs. In summary, Audi really sucks. Build quality, driving dynamics, Audi NA customer service (yes, worse than BMW), electronic glitches, etc. Audi's look nice, but lipstick on a VW parts bin pig. Never again.

I really wish they would build the Pacifica Hellcat as the swan song for ICE. I really would get one. But it doesn't look like they will. They just announced that the next gen Chargers/Challengers will be EV. So looks like they are going all in with EV.

Our Mercedes rep at the Tier 1 supplier I used to work for got so offended that I called that thing a minivan. She said it doesn't have sliding doors so it's not a minivan. OK, darling, whatever you say...

if they ever did actually make this, i would buy it in a heartbeat.

imagine how demoralizing it would be to smoke dudes in a mini van

There's nothing wrong with choice, especially if BMW starts charging subscription to apply power to a seat heater or ventilation component. I think it looks okay; however, it better come loaded with creature comforts and tech :-)

I love it, honestly, but I wouldn't be smoking anyone in it. It's just cool to see such a bad ass van.
