NMNA but I know some of you are looking for these vans.
One of those is supercharged and AWD....
How hard would it be to swap the AWD drivetrain into the van with a non-broken front end? And then add meth injection and a teeny tiny supercharger pulley?
This would be very dangerous for me if I owned a barn to house these two.
BTW, wiki says that previas are about 3750 lbs stock, and the supercharged 2.4l engine makes about 160hp at 6 psi boost. 8.9:1 compression, air to air intercooler stock.
The inline 4 cylinder engine lays down at an almost flat 75* angle!!!!
I love those vans (and funky drivetrain layout) and just told my son yesterday, that 500 inch Cad motor you have would fit nicely in the back of a slammed Previa. He liked the idea, but not enough to build it, I think.
Why the hell didn't they sell millions and millions of those things?

You didn't see the MSRP did you?

Too weird looking
Too expensive
Too difficult to work on
Perceived safety concern of sitting in front of the engine in a crash
Dodge outright OWNING the minivan segment forcing other manufacturers to copy them wholesale.
Pick.....well all of them really.
