Homy Wagon V6 Super Long!
Turn no further than the Nissan Homy Super Long when it comes time to carry ten people at length. The Homy is not to be confused with the much less luxurious Datsun Homer, or Mitsubishi Delica Space Gear Super Exceed. Beta translation tells us that the commodity example exhibition day on this Homy seems to have already happened well south of town. [Homy via Utilitas.jp]

Mitsubishi Crossover Concept to Debut in Frankfurt
Dutch mag Auto Vision says those shuffling through the Frankfurt auto show this September will get to see a compact crossover concept from Mitsubishi that may or may not look like a Delica Space Wagon from the mid-1990s (pictured; most likely not). The style play will likely be a research exercise, testing viewers' reaction and gauging market interest. As Motor Authority translates, the small crossover — which may be influenced by Mitsu's Dakar racer — could hit European forecourts as early as 2009. [via Motor Authority]

Packing a total of four captain's chairs and at least five Plymouth Caravelles worth of burgundy velour - this Hi-Ace is loaded, Johnny.

Now, More Than Ever: Mitsubishi Delica Exceed on eBay
Our somewhat disturbing obsession with boxy and oddly designed Space Wagons continues. Out of all of them, the Exceed remains supreme. This Exceed features more than a few FUSO style mirrors, a whole heap of nerf bars, seating for eight including swiveling captains chairs, a 2.5L turbodiesel, and what appears to be a dash-mounted horizon gauge. This no doubt perfect for tricky maneuvers at higher speeds. Dirt and snow defeating 4X4 underpinnings clinches it. If there was money in the bank we might just be tempted to make the trip to the Great White North to get this one. No matter what happens though, we won't be washing Johnny LaRue's car. No way, eh!

Mitsubishi Delica Space Gear SUPER EXCEED!
No, really. We don't make this stuff up. The third generation of the mighty Delica boasted a turbodiesel powerplant and 4WD. This capability along with plenty of mirrors, lights, nerf bars, ladders, and roof racks transcended the Delica beyond mere space wagon and into super classification. The Super Exceed was also offered as the Royal Exceed, and the Delica was even rebadged as a Mazda Bongo. The Delica is now in its fifth generation, and being sold under the not nearly as exciting Delica D:5 moniker. As Hello Kitty shows us in the video, the Delica remains both cavernous and versatile.
