Well, "exotic" has a definite meaning. It means "from elsewhere". That's all.

"Vanagon" is a synthetic and (ugly) junk word, and basically
meaningless... fortunately it was only used in North America for the
T3 (why couldn't they have just called it Type 2 or Transporter??)
and for the T4 in Japan.
