Frederic put only 2,857 miles on this puppy. This Syncro Westy would cost WAY north of $100k to duplicate today. Yeah, this is a good deal.

Price DOES NOT include tax, license, smog test and certificate, and/or shipping, as applicable.

Yes, another good deal comin' at ya...

But don't blink, it will be..... gone....

... and...

Too late! We posted this Syncro Westy on a Saturday at around 8pm. One of our more attentive customers, Jeff, saw it and wrote us an email about 13 hours after we posted it. And then, 24 hours after that, he had his deposit in!

Way to go, Jeff. Congratulations!

Jeff had us add:

• Updated stereo with Bluetooth hands-free cellphone iPod interface
• XM radio
• Yakima roof rack system
• All California tax, license, smog check and certificate
