Bubs360 Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I found this registered and inspected JDM Subaru Sambar 4x4 minitruck for sale. Times like this I wish I had $5,000 laying around. 22,000 miles, five speed. Such a cool little thing! It's actually road legal unlike most of the Japanese-imported minitrucks around here.

I believe these ones are four-stroke, you're thinking more of the original Subaru 360 Sambar, with its' two-cylinder 25hp two-stroke powerplant. These ones still fit in Japan's Kei designation so they probably have some sub-660cc three cylinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVOthis Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 Well thats good quiet and more environment friendly...I think 5k is a little steep though...even if it is a subaru with only 22k miles.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86HatchShelby Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I drove a Dihatsu Hijet Mini Truck, was the most fun I have had behind the wheel -Jaren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durania Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I still don't understand how those things can cost $5,000. They do look like fun though. I bet if you stopped fast enough in it you could do a stoppie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulwnkl Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 I've seen a couple of those for sale around here. Never went to look at them, though. Interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster2 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Yea, sure is high on the cute factor chart, uldn't want to drive it on city streets, only off road. It looks just too dangerous with nothing to crush but your front legs in any front end accident. Wonder why price is so high at $5,000? Where would you ever find replacement parts?

EvilDead Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Looks safer than my old 67 VW Westy!! I would drive the snot out of it!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitch de la Brat Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 I want that! That looks like it would be almost as much fun to drive as my brat! And I bet that thing could go really fast with an EA71 or EA81 in it, ehh wth, put an EJ22 in it. Twitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
