Minivans are hot again, right? Well, how about a Plymouth Voyager with some umph–to the tune of a 2.5-liter Turbo four-cylinder? Doesn’t sound fast? Well, this Voyager does a quarter-mile in 14.2 seconds on slicks, according to the seller.

The good news is that power plant was recently rebuilt and the seller says it only has 400 miles on it. The same goes for the turbo, which was also refurbished.

The Voyager comes with a Chrysler A413 automatic–but not a stock one. It’s had better clutches installed, increased line pressure and a turbo-spec torque converter. The van features a Peloquins limited slip diff, too.

Find this 1989 Plymouth Voyager (Van) on Hagerty Marketplace, with an asking price of $8900.

That certainly qualifies as a "Q" car (vehicle) as the British may say.

I would love 17" versions of some of those old Chrysler wheels.

The scary thing is that that's not actually all that much faster than a stock 2024 Odyssey. :)

My parents' Chrysler Town & Country has forever left me scarred. However, I can see the appeal. It's relatively fast for what it is. Maybe if I grew up with a faster minivan, I'd have better memories :-)

Reminds me of the very first $2000 Challenge.
