So far my son (14) wants a synchro or a 2nd generation bus.  We've been teaching him to drive a stick-shift on the old Diesel Vanagon.  He also wants a DeLorean because he's a Back to the Future movie fan - I just saw one in the Diablo Dealer for $19,000+ - he'll have to save his own money for that!

My seven year old son asked for the first time if he
can have the syncro westy when he gets older.  He was
very serious.  The push is on!
