I came across a listing recently of a JDM Previa (Estima) for someone important in Japan with every option. I looked through my history but could not find it. :(
Do you remember what they where asking for it?
It wasn’t crazy but I live in California so JDM cars are almost impossible to register. I rarely remember the prices.
The mid-engined Toyota Previa.
My family had one when I was a kid, the supercharged model, with captains chairs in the second row that could be spun around to face the third row to create a chill hangout zone when parked or for long road trips.
I grew up thinking it was normal to lift the driver’s seat to access the engine. I was not a smart child.
Part of me wants to take one of those and 1UZ swap it. Would be ridiculous and absolute fun.
I think the best bet would be a boxer motor. You would have a better change of getting it to fit I would think.
That’s fair. I guess it depends on how far you want to go with a sawzall. What I had in mind with my other comment was this guy’s van, which apparently had a 1JZ shoved into it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odwakzXeECQ&ab_channel=PacoIbarra%2FTofuDriftVan
Toyota Previa!!!
Growing up my family had one of these. Still remember how much space it had inside, little passage way between the driver and passenger seat!
