These are available, but quite rare I understand. Syncros that were
ordered with the optional "h" in the name, were special-order vehicles
that took a minimum of 10 weeks to arrive from the factory. They had
a large increase in price with no discernable improvement in performance,
safety, interior room, or appearance. As a result, few were ever ordered
with this option, and are very hard to find as used vehicles.

Syncros without the "h", though, are relatively plentiful. And this list
is an excellent place to start loking for one!
