Hahahhaha nice find shawn... i was wondering when i would see some being imported.


Only problem is its automatic....FAIL!  lil


and theres no turbo on it!! for peanuts  7500 is no peanuts lol?

and its RHD!!  LHD is better!

I would still take my old 4g63t 5-speed AWD summit wagon over that borrrrrinngg one.


Now go find a HYPERGEAR!!  thats there the goodies are in...

He's just looking for the sucker to pay full pop, I bet they would let that go for $3000, turbo it and 5 speed and bobs your uncle.  I like the mileage and the fact that it's absolutely mint inside and out.

That hypergear is cool.  If I had to have a minivan for some god forsaken reason, I'd get one of those, kill the body kit, peel the stripes and do a bit to the mechanical, and love it.

the "body kit" is OEM...  lol i thought it was aftermarket as well when i first saw it... but it does look a tad bit agressive for that body style...  takes away from the sleeperness of the chassis.
