Bingo. Hence the reason for the MRAP with the Ma deuce up top. No need to run from them when you can just shoot them.

Good point, "the bad guys" could be any group with any level of equipment, training, and resources, so what kind of "bad guys" are we talking about here? Some wacko chasing you in a clapped-out beater or villains worthy of a Bond movie who can stand up to the cops? What's their policy on collateral damage? There are a lot of variables that are known when it comes to the police.

Ah good point, you'll probably get caught up in all kinds of lawsuits from collateral damage though
You did say "ideal"
This can get you out of trouble as long as you can get to 88 mph. As long as you get back in time you'll be safer than any of the others posted.
Killdozer was somewhat successful, had the driver not been "deranged" it might have been even more successful. Call it a proof of concept I guess.
Swap the Komatsu for a D6 or bigger Cat, add gun ports, smoke screen, caltrops, other Bond/Batman-esque anti-pursuit counter measures, and stay away from knocking down buildings with basements.

^ He wins.
For the sake of interesting discussion let's add a qualifier. Limit it to something you would drive to work on a daily basis. Everyone knows the poop hits the fan when you least expect it
I been chased while driving an 80 Bonneville, 80 T/A, 86 S10 and a 96 Impala. Haven't been caught yet. I say the car doesn't matter as much as knowing the area you're in and situational awareness.
I'll stick with my modified GC then, and add the following:
If I'm going to go this route, I'm going big! Take your briefcase full of diamonds or whatever, leave from a big city rooftop, and be out of town before Jonny law or the baddies can muster an appropriate response.
BTW, MD notar birds are pretty quite as far as Choppers go.
Suburban. I've been driving one for a few weeks now and really like it. With a siren for a horn crowds part, it moves better than it should and if need be I can push anything that can catch it off the road.
I've got two possibilities. If it is in the city, I want either the most common car available with the blandest color, or I want something like a Mini Cooper S that I blow through small places with.
If it is in a more rural area, I just want the most hp I can get.
I've been chased by bad guys. They were in a 70s Monte Carlo, I was in a 12a RX7.
My tactic: cat&mouse to the nearest police station.
A white panel van......just look at how many of those exist. So many in fact that the police were convinced the DC snipers were in one(but they were actually in an 80's Caprice)
Wait, that'd be from the cops.....from Baddies I'll just stick with my Vanishing Point machine in my sig.....you'll need more than a 1600hp Lambo to keep up.
...I grew up with Roger Moore as Bond
Second choice...
Oh wait...if it has to be "real", I'd go something like Grand Cherokee w/Hemi. I can troll around the malls with all the other soccer moms and never stand out...then if found can run like the wind and/or go off road if necessary. Just hope the road doesn't get twisty.
My first thought was one of these
Sitting under the shell of one of these
Set the steering up for turning, set the ride height up a little too high and only car people will notice something is wrong.
More realistically, I could ride a big bore dirt bike to work daily and at 245lbs it is easy to muscle anywhere. Also, this bike will do 100 mph on road so the old bob and weave in traffic would be easy enough. You could get a car or bike that can do 140+ mph but are you really going to get it going that fast? Really?

Have both! Turbo Busa powered Smart car. Drive everyday as long as you park smartly.
