RabidRat's Future Time Car Review Thread
 
Inspired by donk.'s thread, I'm making a whole new thread to post about made up cars!

Took me 15 minutes in Keynote. Don't laugh.

Toyota Newsroom
2024 Toyota Sienna TRD Pro gets the job done.

Isn't it about time a manufacturer cashed in on an APC type vehicle? The overlanders love their vans, the off-road enthusiasts grew up and need a place to stash the kids. The market is frothing.

3" lift, standard. 35" tires, standard. roof rack, ladder, standard.

Also standard? Powered dual sliding doors. 3 rows of seating, comfortable all the way through to the back row.

Drivetrain
Power is sourced from Tacoma's i-Force MAX 2.4L Turbo Hybrid. Optional plug-in hybrid with 50km of all-electric range.

Comes in 6MT and 10AT transmission options. It picks up a 4:1 2-speed transfer case with TORSEN limited slip center differential, enabling full-time AWD for power sliding up the highway onramp, kids screaming in the back. But the option to lock into 4WD via 4H/4L when shit gets real, a totally great system leveraged from the Toyota FJ Cruiser 6MT, may it RIP in peace.

Standard front and rear locking diffs. ATRAC too. Also crawl control, sure.

Suspension
A full set of 2.5" Fox internal bypass shocks lifts the Sienna sky high, up by 3". Tuned for jumps but also jumping curbs, take your family on a winning run down a rally stage, or cut in through the bushes at the Wendy's drive-thru, YOUR CHOICE.

Standard E-KDSS for essentially auto swaybar disconnects, because there's no hand left to press buttons when you're helping your screaming toddler.

Towing
Show that Odyssey who's boss by pulling them right out of the parking space that you deserve, because with 8000lbs of towing capacity you are King of Minivans with Sienna TRD Pro.

Available 12,000lb Warn winch, for the tougher of victims who might resist your will.

MSRP
$65,485 + destination.

if it is really selling at MSRP, turbo plug-in is fncking cool.

RabidRat you did too good a job lol

EvoFire 09-13-2023 08:56 AM

If Toyota made that, I'd imagine they'd sell as many as they'll allocate to the PNW markets. It would be worth it just to be able to upgrade from the current lump they use in the regular Sienna.

And 65k is cheap lol

You secretly want a broken Italian car

Qmx323 09-13-2023 12:57 PM

I laughed but it was out of desire, not mockery

hud 91gt 09-13-2023 03:26 PM

Minivan with clearance and tow capacity? Consider it sold.

Maserati Newsroom
2024 Maserati GranTurismo TRD Pro gets the job done.

Isn't it about time a manufacturer cashed in on a jacked up exotic? The overlanders love their V8 Italian sports coupes, the off-road enthusiasts grew up and need a place to not stash the kids. The market is frothing.

3" lift, standard. 35" tires, standard. roof rack, ladder, standard.

Drivetrain
Power is sourced from a 4.8L V8 made by grafting two Tacoma's i-Force MAX 2.4L Turbo Hybrid together but removing the Turbos and the Hybrids. Because who wants efficiency or technology, not this guy. Hell nah.

Comes in 6-spd manual or 8-spd dual clutch.

It picks up a 4:1 2-speed transfer case with TORSEN limited slip center differential, enabling full-time AWD for power sliding up the highway onramp, kids screaming in the back. But the option to lock into 4WD via 4H/4L when shit gets real, a totally great system leveraged from the Toyota FJ Cruiser 6MT, may it RIP in peace.

Standard front and rear locking diffs. ATRAC too. Also crawl control, sure.

Suspension
A full set of 2.5" Fox internal bypass shocks lifts the GranTurismo sky high. Tuned for jumps but also jumping curbs, take your family on a winning run down a rally stage, or cut in through the bushes at the Wendy's drive-thru, YOUR CHOICE.

Standard E-KDSS for essentially auto swaybar disconnects, because there's no hand left to press buttons when you're helping your screaming toddler.

Towing
Show that F40 who's boss by pulling them right out of the parking space that you deserve, because with 8000lbs of towing capacity you are King of Italians with GranTurismo TRD Pro.

Available 12,000lb Warn winch, for the tougher of victims who might resist your will.

MSRP
$165,485 + destination.
