So far, the VW Bus or a Geo Metro is tops, but the VW Buses are too, well, ordinary ( been done enough ) and the Metro is too small.

I am looking for different, yet something that would generate positive attention as it went down the road.
I still say put down the $1800 and get a brand new unused 07 Miles ZX40, go to Ohio and pay the $300 to have it titled and OK'd for highway use pay another $150-$200 and get the Daihatsu charade transmission.

The van is small but has plenty of headroom for anyone and easily seats 4.
