I didn't expect it to be anything less than ugly.
(If they do the V8, should they?)

I hope to god the real van looks nothing like the photoshop. That thing is completely grotesque; it looks as if a Durango and a 300C had sex, and this is the child after eating way too many happy meals. Good lord that is ugly.
V8 though? Maybe Chrysler can make a non-crappy minivan to drive, and take the fight straight to Honda and their Odyssey. If it does have the V8, it would have to be 4 or rear wheel drive to work properly. But Chrysler seems to understand that fact, not like other automakers (*cough* GM *cough*).

Nissan and Honda already beat them to it. The Quest and Odessey handle like saloons--and trust me I drove them as such--and I do have a bit of fun driving my Odessey shuttle van at work...I scare the living crap out of the other employees when I turn the VSA off and get sideways.

I already knew the Odyssey is a good drive; I was just saying Chrysler could also make a good van. I guess I should have phrased my previous post better.JCE3000GTNissan and Honda already beat them to it.

👍 Definately looks better with the coverings on - a bit like putting a paper bag over an ugly girls head.

I don't know...Ditch the 300 beak and it wouldn't look too bad, IMHO. Besides, if they make it available with the Hemi and AWD, looks wouldn't be such a big deal, now would they?
BTW, VW's North American market minivan will be based on the Chrysler, including drivetrains.

I guess in defense of Chrysler, this is a vehicle which builds off of the Chrysler 300 and offers more seating as well as more room to store stuff in the rear. Perhaps Chrysler's building this as a super 300. Much more capable and much more able.
In terms of looks, here's what we got: the front of the Chrysler 300 (unmistakable!), maybe the lines of the 300 along the sides, yet the mean stance at the rear with a Dodge Magnum end. Do I like it personally? I actually don't think it's bad. Out of 100%, I'd give the design... uh... 74%. I see this more as a super 300 than a brand new automobile. Perhaps the lovliest creation from the Chrysler arm of DaimlerChrysler was the Chrysler Pacifica, that "segment buster" which beautifully blended van and SUV without leaning to either side too much. It's 300 meets Magnum, only taller.
By the way, I'll bet you there's an SRT variant in the works and will probably be meaner than this thing here. I'm certainly not going to say it's beautiful, but it isn't completely ugly either. I've seen worse. However, if the market is interested in a vehicle like this, I'm sure it will be appreciative no matter what we think. Remember, it's the car when it hits the street, not the car we're looking at. In other words, if the car has a lot to offer for interested consumers, then no matter what we think about the car's looks, it all comes down to the form and function of the car rather than its looks.
