With the parts supply (and the future) the way it is I've decided to move on to this...1990 Subaru Sambar Try XS Supercharged. Was only 1 owner with just over 51,XXX kilometers on the clock and in immaculate condition inside and out. Shipped it over from Japan. I own (2) other kei vehicles in Japan when I'm there.
So if anyone is interested in my Westy send me a PM. Just did a full tune on it. Specs are in signature.

totally sane decision.
although that will be 7x more difficult to find parts for. better buy three to be sure......... |

When they said go Subaru, that's not what they meant. |

I guess if all you carry is your smart phone and your dog then there is plenty of room in it. |

Parts are easier than bus. I also live and have family in Japan an they can get me a part in the event I'm here and not there. |

Has more room then most think if looking from the outside. I have more leg room and head room in it. Both front and back. Both sides have sliding doors with windows that roll down. Also has AC. 42 mpg around town with 10 gallon tank. |

Doesn’t exactly have the ‘cool’ factor a bus has. |

I don't think anyone hates him for it. Just reminds me of the cars that look like fish should be swimming on the inside. Who knows, maybe they are :lol: If he is happy and it meets his needs, then all is well. |

No hate here, just making jokes.
The 'Classic' is pretty neato.

hard to blame someone for opting for low maintenance.
what would it be like to have common sense?
i’ll stick with my ‘78 ce2. |

I'd prefer it all go as one. It's original and only 1 other owner than me and that was my grandfather. Was with my grandparents when they bought it. Still have the original sales documents. |

Ads are not allowed in the forum, but I must say, this is one of the best non ad ads that I've ever seen!
Forums rules stipulate that you place a for sale ad in the classified section.
Please do so, thank you. . |

Rock hard, ride free! Going to miss you bro. You always bring something interesting to the table. I dig those little vans. Most people won’t get this but……... Hope you do :wink:

udidwht, I love it, my inlaw's have the pick up version in Maui for their business. I'm looking forward to driving theirs. I don't see you leaving us being you've been here since 2005 and Everett has this great Off Topic Forum. Please stick around.
Can you share a little bit about the mechanicals and capability such as mpg, suspension and overall cruising speed? She is adorable.

Congrats!
I've had a kei truck for two years now. Maintenance cost so far: 1 oil change.
Money spent on my van in the same time: $12K.
