I think there will be a lot of info at their specialized web site, I
*think* it is at something like synchronized.com, hmmm, which I am
finding no sign of...
Here is some random stuff...
The Synchro is AWD with 5 cylinder engines, drivetrain is the same as
84-87 4000 quattro. Engine compartment layout is different though.
Body and interior parts are also unique.
The Synchro is a VW Quantum with AWD, as noted above. Some Quantums
(Quanta?) are 2wd with the 5 cyl. engine. I don't know if there were 4
cyl. versions.
So... the Synchro is a cool car, but it's interior appointments and
features are definitely "below" the standard usually seen in a 4kq.
Wikipedia is weak on information about this car - a few tiny mentios are
buried in the VW Type 2 page, and the Passat page. Also, the info I am
relating is fairly US-specific.
What year and country is your prospective purchase from? Details, etc.?
