It doesn't matter if you're stealing precious jewels, famous artwork or cold-hard cash, you need the right vehicle to make sure you and your crew getaway without any heat. Looking for a set of preowned wheels to accompany you on your next heist? We have some ideas for you.

You need a car that doesn't draw attention, but still has enough power to flee the scene if things get ugly. You'll probably need some off roading power, too. Unlike Grand Theft Auto, you can't restart the mission when your Banshee flips over and catches fire. We're talking IRL here, so choose wisely.

Audi RS6

Specialty: Going fast while looking slow.

In a heist, you want to draw as little attention as possible, and there's no car that draws less attention that an Audi A6. Although the supped-up RS6 packs a twin turbocharged V8 that pumps out 450 horsepower underneath the hood, it looks almost identical to a regular A6. Find one in a nice beige and you'll be in the clear.

Volkswagen Golf TDI

Specialty: Going the distance with no extra stops.

Imagine you've just pulled off the heist of the century and you're on your way to the Mexican border, what's the last thing you want to do? Make extra stops. That's where the Volkswagen Golf TDI comes in handy. With an estimated 30/42 mpg and a highway range of almost 600 miles on a single tank, the Golf TDI will ensure you and your crew will be making the least amount of stops possible. Efficiency is good, but that doesn't mean you should go with an electric car.

Pro Tip: Find a 5th generation (2006-2010) Golf —It'll draw less attention than the new model.

Ford F350 SuperDuty

Specialty: Hauls anything and everything. Doesn't look weird when 4 dudes are traveling together.

A crew of adult men in any car is going to look suspicious, unless you have a good alibi. The Ford F250 provides that alibi for you. If you get pulled over, just claim you're a landscaping service or something. If you really want to get creative, slap an "Al's Landscaping" decal on the side and tow a trailer packed with lawnmowers, weedwackers and rakes.

The F250 also provides plenty of cargo space in the bed, although you have to be careful that nothing precious falls out or gets spotted easily. For really big items, towing a box trailer might be the way to go.

Mercury Sable LS

Specialty: Loads of cargo room, strong V6, Cheap

Even if you're on a budget or trying to keep overhead low, you can still find a great used car for your upcoming heist. Check out the Mercury Sable LS. The Sable comes in two body styles, a sedan or station wagon. While the station wagon offers more cargo room overall, the trunk on the sedan conceals the contents and should be spacious enough for most loot. The LS trim comes with a 200hp V6, which won't walk away from a police Crown Vic, but it'll give you a fighting chance if you end up in a high speed pursuit. Best of all, a Mercury Sable in heist-worthy condition can be found on !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! for under $3,000.

Mercedes Benz G63 AMG 6X6

Specialty: Off road capabilities, totally badass.

If you're "going in loud", it's a matter of getting what you want, leaving the scene and making it to the extraction point by any means necessary. For that, your best bet is the Mercedes Benz G63 AMG 6X6. Even with a twin turbo V8 making 536 horsepower, the G63 is not fast. But with 18 inches of ground clearance and fat beefy tires, it will run over anything in its path. The G63 6X6 can even inflate and deflate its tires from inside the car with the push of a button, providing extra traction through sand and mud. When subtlety isn't an option, the G63 AMG 6X6 is the next best thing.

I've always wondered if I would be able to outrun the police. Not that I have any intentions of every trying, or doing anything that would put me in such a situation and I'm sure the cameras and radio would get me caught anyway. Its probably all the GTA. I'm sure I'm not the only one on here who has thought about this. But i'm thinking the WRX is pretty quick, it might be able to out accelerate the crusier, it could certainly out corner it. I'll just leave it to GTA .

But what if I wanna challenge the cops in Dubai in outright speed and agility? What car can be powerful enough to hit it in a Need For Speed-style street race while still be able to get away or keep up with the supercar-toting Dubai PD afterward?

I actually hate this car …. but it is a completely off-the-radar with 300hp.

This.

Enough power from its V12 to make it brisk, but with also enough ground clearance to navigate the deserts outside the city where their supercars can't go.

can't outrun the radio, as the saying goes. you need to disappear not get away. I'd say the first car from the movie Drive got it right. fast, but boring. blended in and disappeared

Remove the badges and put on steelies with only three matching hubcaps. ding the bumpers a bit and no one would be the wiser. Double points if you put enterprise or hertz rental barcodes on it.

Do any of the Dubai police men and women even know how to drive those supercars? Or are they just for show?

They would. We have the sticks to poke 'em. Just pass by them doing a burnout and the chase is on.

We'd like to see a video of that.

Here's one clip.

I know that there's no way they would drive like the rozzers in NFS, but like I said, you can provoke them to the point where they have to use the supercopcars to catch you. And if you also demand that they deploy those cars, they would.

Ahh, we were hoping that was going to be a chase video. Still cool though.

Let's just say that it won't be long before someone goes Afroduck and run a Lap (or Laps) of Dubai.

I'm not calling it great, but if we're taking this question somewhat seriously, all the robber would need to do is acquire themselves a light bar, and who would know the difference?

Right idea, just a smidgen off though. Why use a 300hp Chevy sedan when you can use a 415hp one?

Ok, now I see where you're going. That thing can handle a beating so I guess it would be good for close-quarters.

Yea, they both look incredibly boring in silver. So good call!

Don't forget the Passat W8 and Phaeton, both nearly invisible, but very quick AWD sedans and wagons in Passat form.

Well, the Motorola radio police use will out run all of these.

I might be wrong but I think the one in Drive was engine swapped.

Subaru WRX - 'Corolla like' styling with flat out speed and AWD cornering to boot! Plus it's small enough to find your way out of sticky situations while still having enough room to fit human beings (accomplices) in the rear; with centre fold out cup holders for enhanced hydration or munition storage.

What would you engine swap into that gen Impala?

Idk, I haven't scene the movie in a while and I can't be bothered to watch it on netflix right now because I should be doing my homework lol.

But maybe an LS?

…. but it has an LS engine doe, specifically the LS4.

None. Sorry. I bought three of those from an auction and made some money, but I found them underpowered. The Caprice was a much better car in every way: roominess, power (LT1), braking and fuel economy.

Best cloaking device I ever had was a school bus just like this one. I drove it at 17 years old, still in high school, in Virginia. I was invisible to people I knew on the street and to every other driver on the road.

Doesnt need much power to be a sneaky devil and blend in. Just look at Camrys and Prii.

True. I forgot I was supposed to be a criminal; I was just thinking about fun to drive. ;o)

Yes: the Crown Vic is probably the most ubiquitous car on the road today.

I would probably opt for a Town Car over the Crown Vic if the option were open though. A blacked out Town Car blends in even better because whos going to suspect a taxi/limo? If you drive like a maniac no one will notice, you wont get pulled over for tints every other day of the week, and you'll blend in at airports when making your getaway.

Definitely sexier than a Crown Vic.
