    Thanks @Terence Yuen , how is it possible for this van to be year 2000 though? I thought they stopped making this model/shape around 1994?

    The chassis number (P15VJLNR6 in your case) is the only VIN on these vans. Strangely, yours does not show up on the epic-data look-up...

    Based on the Japanese VIN that confirms that it was JDM and definitely an import then? Based on your info above it sounds like the van...
