The Subaru Sambar

A space-age super van, the Sambar is Subaru's answer to the Kei van. This Kubrick inspired shuttle-bus has a style that screams Japan 1990. With a strangely cool back window and super moon roof, some Sambars come equipped with drapery... there's literally too much light. And although it's a city van, you'll want to get away from the SUVs that clog the streets by heading to a quiet place outdoors. No problem, 4WD and 50mpg will get there, back, and then some.

    Great on gas, but you can

    Mad Max meets milk delivery guy.
