    I freakin love those things. Definitely on my list of vehicles to own.
    I had no idea they came with extra windows though, and that paint job is way hot.
    Nothing like multiple shades of brown. And check out the mailman mirror on the rear left corner.

        I'm going to assume OP thinks the Aztek is pretty hip and neat.

              Lol I guess it's a love/hate thing. Well one day I'll probably get one just for the hell of it. Either that or a westy.

              Previas look like jelly beans but they're alright.
              Jah bless! :pimp:

                  Not going to lie, I've had a thing for the Previa. Especially the S/C version.

                      Personal taste is the weirdest thing.

                      Mine included, don't get me wrong. It doesn't include Previas, but it's just as weird.

                        I remember seeing those ugly ass toyota vans in the game 'The Getaway" (PS2) I always ran them off the road with the Range Rover.

                          ha ha I learned to drive on a Previa. Mid-engined, RWD, supercharged....it's the Ferrari of Minivans. Complete with snap-oversteer emergency handling (ask me how I know).

                            I think Toyota had a lot of problems with out-of-warranty repairs on the supercharged vans. The SC version was built to compete with the Chrysler 3.3 (or 3.5?) V6's and was sort of a band-aid attempt. Engine repairs were a pain in the ass for dealers and independents with the cramped supercharged 4-cyl over the front axle. I agree that the Previa did look pretty good for a minivan in the early 90's.

                            The Chrysler turbo van of the late 80's, with a 5-speed, that I'd take!

                              No mention of the dreaded AWD S/C Previa Had the misfortune to work on neighbors many a time.
