the nice folks over at toyota canada let me go for a spin in the toyota estima...right hand drive, hybrid, all wheel drive got more looks and cheers than a fat man in a mini.....has much more power than the prius and handles really well for a van....once again the question on a vehicles driveability in a foreign country comes into play...the van had a normal looking ontario plate on it

I don't know.. it doesn't really look that bad. Kinda like a more agressive Honda Odyssey. I'd have to see it in person to really judge, but from the pic on that angle, it doesn't look too bad!

This one is a bit extreme, LOL, but I love the pictures of those vans in Japan that people add those HUGE kits to them, I think they are so neat lookin.
