1994 Pontiac Trans Sport SE 3dr Minivan
Been a good van with no major
problems. Engine is better than the
body style with only a minor problem
under the hood. Was one of the better
vans at that time (1994) other than the
Chryslers. Ford came out with Windstar
same year or a year later and took the
steam out of GM for a while. Mazda's
original Mvp was a joke as was the
undersized first Odyssey. Did what … it
needed to do.

Very versitile vehicle. Tows 2 tons and cruises easy on the highway. Too bad 3.8 liter gets only about 20 average mpg

Best Vehicle I've ever owned

1993 Pontiac Trans Sport SE 3dr Minivan
I'm the original owner of this 1993 Trans Sport SE, it's one of the Spring Special Editions for 93, you know the Dark Green over Gold ones. It has every option available except the sunroof and leather,(did not want those). My van has 230,000+ miles on it and 98% of it is still original. The seats & carpet are spotless, The body immaculate, & I drive it everywhere in all weather. Only … issue I ever had since day one is the steering rack had to be replaced under warrenty. Only normal upkeep has ever been done. I fully expect to get 500.000 out of this van if not more. My wife and I absolutely love it and would not trade it for anything on the road today or since it was built.
