1992 Volkswagen Passat G60 Syncro review from North America
"High performance bargain for the do-it-yourselfer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing except regular maintainance for a car with 115,000 miles. Problematic areas are a rattling heat shield, expensive/weak supercharger and really nothing else!
General comments?
You can't imagine how much I love this car. I went to Canada to buy/import it knowing how capable it is. 4WD with the G60 engine, better suspension components, etc. It's beautiful and a heck of a lot of fun whether on the track or in the snow. Only one of 300 or so, though.
