It actually reminds me of the first gen Dodge Caravan.  You see it over and over where engineers take certain concepts from experimental cars and use them in a way that can be mass produced.  The second gen Camaro was a cheapened Corvette prototype, I seem to recall.  That AM Van has way too much glass to be feasible, and the turbo and 4wd up the price.  It needs some doors for the rear passengers too.  And yet doesn't it look like a mini...van?  ;D
It's getting crowded down here:
1973 Ford Mustang "Rustang"
1984 AMC Eagle Sedan "IllEagle" 183k
1984 AMC Eagle Wagon "Eagle 2"
1996 Cadillac Eldorado 178k
1998 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight 239k
2002 Cadillac Eldorado Doral Edition
2005 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 179k
