[Mike621]

I can vouch for this car, as I drive it at least twice a week. The new owner will be very pleased with this car, as it runs and drives very smoothly. No stalling, sputtering, or clutch chatter. Ive driven 3 mt svx's (This car, and TomsSVX's 5mt and 6mt) and I must say, I love the clutch and the shifting in this car the best. It just clicks from gear to gear, no problems.

John, you forgot to mention, the tires are in good shape too, with many miles left on them.

He also did a nice job with the clear lenses up front.

The interior is also in good shape. The seats are free of rips/separations and the escaine is in nice, clean shape.

The car is worry-free and ready to go.

--my $.02

[Mike621]

keep it topstyle

[AppStateSVX]

that thing is really clean. Bump for an exceptionally good one. Whoever gets this will be lucky:)

[Mike621]

In case anyone were wondering from the pictures, the passenger side visor does not droop, it was down, and the drivers side has minimal to no droop.

[Tim]

Yea I got a chance to drive that car around town. It definitely drives very nicely and doesn't feel like it has 162,000 miles. The clutch is very smooth, the only thing I could think of that was wrong with it was it was missing the muffler tips but thats it.

Thanks Tim! The tips will go back on for the new owner. They're still intact :)

Thanks AppStateSVX/Mike

I feel kind of weird selling it, but I got another to ebony to build up, and I could use the money

[It's Just Eric]

-another voucher-

Car in in damn perfect mechanical shape, interior is rip free and plenty clean.
It shifts smooth and the tranny handles what is thrown at it. really solid car!

Another voucher from me too. I have seen this car in person a few times and it is very clean and in excellent shape. The headlights look perfect and the interior is in great shape as well. I think i remember saying something to you about how clean the interior was at atco in the summer :D

[AvPPoW]

Thanks Tom! Hope someone buys it so I can build another.

[Chiketkd]

I'd also like to vouch for this car as John was gracious enough to let me drive it while up in NJ last November. Great car being sold by a great owner!

Piece of advice John, as it is a rare 5speed, you could easily get a pretty penny for it on Ebay... :)

[AvPPoW]

Thanks Chike! I figured I'd let the network & nasioc at it first, I'll probably head to ebay if I can't find a buyer here.

Good luck with your Impreza purchase, looking forward to checking it out at a future meet :)

Thanks! I'll be picking up my TR in just under 2 weeks. Looking forward to Reading '06! Should be a blast!!! :cool:

[intellibomb]

is it going to come with the shoguns, or are those going on the next ebony?

(saw them in your sig)

[AvPPoW]

is it going to come with the shoguns, or are those going on the next ebony?

(saw them in your sig)

3 out of the 4 shoguns are dead, they fell victim to PA roads. It has the stock wheels.

[Mike621]

Only one of those is unfixable. The others *might* be fixable. and only one tire went bad. Underinflation killed them.

[Earthworm]

I don't see where you mention WHY you are selling it. :confused:

[AvPPoW]

I don't see where you mention WHY you are selling it. :confused:

I got another ebony with a bad tranny over the weekend that I want to save. I'd love to go 6mt/Koni's with it, but I can't unless I sell my car.

I love my 5-Speed, but it's time to move on

[Mike621]

I love your 5 speed too....

EDIT:
Looks like Ill be helping John fix the Laguna too I suppose?

I guess you guys did the car plus $$ thing then. I have an idea for the Laguna. Im going to talk to John later about it.

[n00b on demand]

Congrats Ray you will be getting a great car!

[kuroneko_sama]

please keep her in one piece, shes a good little car and she shouldnt be parted out...

[Mike621]

I know that! hehe

I might have access to a radiator support and radiator that I can pitch towards the efforts.

What do you think a Laguna would look like with Silver body cladding and silver bumpers?

A Laguna FWD 5 speed would be a monster at the track!

You could make a two tone SVX....laguna blue and silver :D

[Mike621]

Thats exactly what Im getting at. I think it wouldnt look half bad!

Plus a 5 speed from a fwd Legacy and you have an ever more unique street terror!

[AvPPoW]

SOLD, thanks for the support guys, and Ray, I'll be calling you in a minute

[Excall]

Congradulations Romeo,

I see the car pretty much every day and I know you'll like it a lot.

[It's Just Eric]

Sweet deal. looks like Ill also be putting in alot of garage time.

Oh, heck yeah. cruise even works

Itll be sad to see the old car go.....Its the one that more or less got Mike621, me, AND excall intrested and sold on svx fever. Good luck with the car Romeo...and try not to guardrail this one :( :p ;) :)

I dunno Eric, we were talking about it earlier today, and I kinda like your house...

[AvPPoW]

Cmon, someone must want a test drive!

[mbtoloczko]

Have you eBay'ed it? Maybe with a starting bid equal to the lowest offer you'd accept?

I'll hold off a little bit more until it goes to ebay. I'd rather it go to someone on the boards who appriciates it and cares for it than some spoiled kid who got bored with his honda. But then again, money is money I guess :(

[Green1995SVX]

I drove this car last night, and it drives wonderfully. John did a great job with the swap. Everything has a very 'stock' feel to it. Someone buy this car! It's worth every penny.

When we rode in it last night it was 150% quieter inside. Nice Job with that btw.

wow... sounds like a great car...
too bad you're all the way on the east coast...
my job doesn't allow me to take a week off to drive cross country...
and i wouldn't know where to take the car to get fixed if it breaks down in the future...
and i wonder if the 5spd swap falls under the crazy california modding laws (or if a nj car would pass CA emissions)


my loss....

[AppStateSVX]

sorry man, I would love to buy this from you, but the most I could give is 3,200. Let me know if you would take that. I'm in SVX withdrawl right now.

[SVX10]

There was a 6MT for sale for $2800 earlier today on NASIOC. Just go to the privat for sale forum and search for "part out" (I think that's what I was searching when I came accross it). Otherwise, be creative and think of some applicable search phrases.

[AvPPoW]

Guess a few more people can endorse it now :cool:

[michael]

I give it my stamp of approval. I took it for a ride at Reading and it's very solid and natural feeling. If someone wants an SVX that they don't have to worry about breaking, this is the one. Good luck with the sale!
