My wife and I walked the whole parking lot looking at all their various offerings, and there isn't a $50K one among 'em . There was a nice syncro 16 westy that'd be an easy $30K-er with a good repaint, but it was on the street so I surmise it was an employee's. They were just reg'lar old westy vanagons on the lot for the most part... dusty, scratched, hula girls stuck on the dash... Like you say, when you pick one out they start off with "OK, do you want the $4K, $5K, or the $6K engine? 15" or 16" wheel package? Paint?" etc. -- John Bange '90 Vanagon - "Geldsauger" |
