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.

I had the earlier model in my teenage years and I still think it’s my best car ever. Slow, slim, 3 cylinder engine hidden under the rear bumper. But I could fold the seats into one big mattress which was a big plus as a teenager.
Outstanding
I think this is a nice little fun ride. Great for weekends.
You can post endless photos of this and not even the worst Internet subhuman troll would complain.
Perfection.
is it street legal?
Congratulations – Looks great.
I’ve been trying to put in offers for a Subaru Domingo (basically the same as the Sambar but not a Kei van). Which website did you use?
It definitely fits this sub perfectly.
It’s both weird but looks cool, it doesn’t look functional but like it would be perfect for general travel.
So cool, now I want one as a little around town/beach cruiser
It would be fun to make one electric.
