Actually a Syncro Westfalia did go speeding by me this morning on I580 westbound (toward San Francisco). Kind of funny as I was doing about 70-72 and the syncro speeded by, right behind a real pretty Harley Davidson Electraglide, which also speeded by. I wondered if it was a listmember and if they have an engine conversion - the person had WetWesties stickers on both sides of his van.

Westfalia ---85 1.9 stock waterboxer

195 MPH top speed. I live in Bellingham and can make it to Seattle (90 miles away) in about one-half hour, if the traffic is light. Glad you asked----as a Westfalia owner, speed has always been a top priority in my life.
