SVX huh? looks sweet. I like the interior on the leather optioned ones. What year and mileage is that? They made those till at least '96. There is one in Yonkers on e-bay for a grand. Trannys do seem to be subarus weak spot. If yours is strong you should be in good shape. How does the awd work?

xres8182:
I also wanted to say that 2-tone treatment would look sick wit some black wheels w/ polished lips. Tibster is A-OK in semi hibernation.

Mister Pink:
She has 135k miles on the 3.3Litre Boxer-6.. about 40k on a rebuilt transmission (they really are a weak spot), but going to take that out when it dies and swap in a 5-speed from an WRX.

Haven't had to fix anything major, nothing I can't handle since the previous owner replaced EVERYTHING that could go wrong: Valve Cover Gaskets, Cam & Crank Seals, Axles, Rack & Pinion, Transmission Rebuild, Timing Belt, Water Pump, F&R pads & rotors, ABS sensors, the list goes on and on and on...  8-)  His loss is my gain



Has the leather and suede interior with the wood trim on the console.
They were actually produced from 92-97, not as a racecar, but as a flagship car, a luxury GT, more in the class of a Lexus SC300 than a Nissan 300ZX or a Supra.

Looks like it's in great shape. How do you like the funky side windows? Is there a reason for that design?

Mister Pink:
Yeah, I'm loving the SVX - you either see complete beaters that you'll sink 5 grand into or mint condition beauties, I found one of the latter

I like the windows, one of my reasons for buying the car actually. They allow for a larger door opening, and makes the cabin seem really open and spacious. Also, you can drive in pouring rain with the windows down and not get wet. After a few months of driving you don't even notice them in your peripheral vision.
People at the bank window, drive-thru, and gas station always comment, albeit in a much more positive manner than the last anon standing on this sad little message board...  :cry2:
