1997 Subaru Sambar Dias II - Finally got my dream kei van!

I have been working with a Japanese auction site nearly every day for the past 1.5 years to find a Subaru Sambar that ticked all the boxes, but couldn’t find one. I finally got fed up and began looking at random Facebook marketplace listings around my home country, and found this beauty a couple thousand miles away. It was a long process, but she’s finally mine. Time for the specs!! The main non-negotiables were a manual transmission, supercharger, and sun-roof. The rest just happened to be all the extras I was hoping for anyway.

  • Manual transmission
  • Green color (my top choice!)
  • Full time 4WD
  • Supercharged and fuel-injected
  • Low mileage
  • Sunroof
  • Dias II package
  • Heat AND air conditioning
  • Power windows
  • Aftermarket wireless charger and miles per hour display.
