Even if you get Previa, it wont be "driver oriented" like your E60. You are buying the car for comfort and family...so i reckon Alphard / Vellfire. Keep driving time for your 996.

The Previa will still just be a people carrier... not a driver car and not super comfy.... Alphard is not driver car either but super comfy!!!!!

Let's see how things go man, none of the choices are sexy here. Might go to another extreme and just fucking get an MB sprinter! Think I once thought I wanna be a postman when I grow up...

Get the Previa if you do the driving most of the time. i have both of the above and the Previa is sure the best unless you have a driver.

Alphard have too much body-roll and for long trips is a pain.

i sometime uses the Previa for some fast driving and i can say its not bad at all. much better handling than Alphard.

Also, the Previa i had is the older version with the 3.0 V6. so the new 3.5 will def' be better.
