Let's say you decided to rob the NYC Federal Reserve's gold stash. What would you use as a getaway car? Some rules- Price doesn't really matter that much, seeing as how 25% of ALL OF THE GOLD is there. Also, you have a limit at 4 cars to keep the pack manageable. The goal is to be nimble, quick, and hold as much gold as you can. Also, it should be able to take a beating. Me? I'd choose the Mini Countryman WRC, with a modified suspension to take the weight. Fast, powerful, durable, has plenty of room inside to stack gold bricks. Charlie Croker wasn't fucking around when he chose Austin Minis, and this is a bigger and more modern job, so it needs a bigger and more modern vehicle.

M18 Hellcat - speeds above 60MPH, also tank. It could definitely take a beating Probably a good amount of room if you aren't holding any shells for the cannon

Two cars in the beginning. One would be a remote controlled Marauder, the other would be a black Chevy Suburban (government special) with a conversion to hold a hell of a lot of gold secretly (Yay smuggler holes and stuff), license plates that are identical to a similar car that already parks at the reserve, and let's lightly armor the thing just for the heck of it. The Marauder would be a decoy hopefully bringing a large load of police and air support with it leaving the Chevy to slip out the back a while later. No way would it be possible to take all the gold, you would be at the reserve way too long. To get the marauder in place you might need to paint it in NYPD livery or something suspicious.
Alternatively: Shoot the garage attendant; steal the plates, keys, and Vin tag from a "clean" Chevy Suburban already parked there and swap those on to the "package" chevy. Park the "package" truck in the spot where the "clean" truck was. Drive the clean truck out of the reserve playing dumb if stopped. Monitor the location of the "package" truck and once someone else drives it out of the reserve, intercept it, and recover gold.

NASCAR edition Camry
I'd paint it a beige color, stick a muffler on, and put some bond-like features on like maybe a quick license plate switch so they dont stop me. I'd then get a Hennessey twin turbo'd cts-v wagon, and then an Audi A8 W12 security edition, both with some upgrades, and the same bond features. Then I'd get some sort of transport plane for a quick getaway out of the country

Not to mention that you'd need at least a god damn freight train to transport it. We're thieves, not greedy. ;)

Yeah but it's a god damn tank. I'll let it slide.

It would probably need some work in the suspension department to handle that much gold, but fold down the rear seats (you can do that in an FF right?) and you could fit a ton of gold back there. I'm sure the V12 provides adequate running-away power, and the 4WD makes it easy to go off road for a little bit if I need to.

Taurus SHO to blend in. TT for a bit of speed, HUGE trunk, all-wheel drive for back roads at full oppo.

It's not a tank. It's a mobile gun!

Subaru STI, with plastidip paint jobs for quick peal away's. Badges removed of course, and no rear wing obviously. There are higher end cars that could handle the weight/speed but the AWD turbo subbie in sleeper trim is pretty damn appealing.

Several problems with the alternative plan. How are their keys going to work in your suburban? Plus you don't think they'd notice a shit ton of gold in their car. Third they would most likely be monitoring all the exits and when they go to drive your gold car out they'll get searched and caught at the exits. Plus we have morals man, you only kill people if something goes wrong haha

Open with an MRAP to get the attention of the police and be the "rabbit" for the pursuit.
Two Toyota Sienna taxis with heavy duty suspension to carry the gold. They're Sienna mini vans and they're taxis. Wonder Woman's invisible jet attracts more attention.
Lastly, a semi truck with a quickly deployable and raisable ramp. That way when word finally goes out to be on the look out for the taxis they'll be safely hidden inside the trailer

Beige Camry. They're everywhere, so nobody's gonna find you. Also, I would do a 2JZ swap and modify the suspension to carry the gold.

Cummins 3500 RAM with towing mirrors, a stupid lift, big tires, Rockstar rims, and a set of trucknuts hanging off the unused hitch receiver.
I'd drive right by and the cops wouldn't even suspect me, they'd just be like "there goes another d-bag in a brotruck"
