Now I understand why twice, upon seeing my '91 Synchro > camper, folks have offered me >$20,000 on the spot. > Vern, I believe the resale value for the late model Camper GLs stayed high after the last unit was imported in '91 was due to: -No replacement in '92, '93 or '94 model years. -The unique position of the VW Camper in the marketplace. -The high cost of the '95 EuroBago camper along with the perceived drawbacks of the EuroVan. -The romance attached to the rear-engined beast. The west-coast versions of Kelleys BlueBook and the yellow NADA book lists the Camper high. I don't know about the east coast....... The people that paid me $21K considered the EuroBago, but opted for a Vanagon due to lower cost and romance, I believe. wizzer
