I saw a set of those on eBay once, lets just say the are not something I would ever put in my car.

I actually like the seats and I bet they wear better than leather. Reminds me of some German cars.

You know what scares me about this picture?
The more I stare at it the more I like it...
Yet it is hideous.

But I like the black doors, wheel, and console..
Wish the carpet was black, and the mats were gray, and the seats were black leather.

Re: Japanese SVX with Kindergarden Interior
 

Which? Germans never had such an interior :rolleyes:

Re: Japanese SVX with Kindergarden Interior
 

There were plain color mats available for the later JDM cars. Those floral green mats were introduced with the first cars, cars that had dark leather seats. Those 'floral' mats look great in the early JDM cars, the cars with dark interior, and GREEN GLASS.

Leave Gene alone, he's just having a Mexican VW flashback:lol:

Rather than a 3rd party customising SVX radiators, the owners possibly took their SVX the to the same chain of radiator shops when the original plastic tank burst and the tank was replaced with a tank similar to what the shop did last time.
If you look at the two pictures that you supplied there are differences between the two, and remember the radiator shop would make the new tank out of appropriate generic parts that they stock, welded together into the appropriate form.

That's what happened when my tank burst, I took it to a radiator shop who had done a couple before and they made a similar new tank and pressed it onto my original core, it was the most cost effective option.

It's not the prettiest of things but it does the job nicely.

As for floor mats, luckily I don't have those hideous floral mats, my S4 came with nice high quality, neutral grey mats with a cast aluminium "Alcyone SVX" badges riveted on.................

I really like the mats with the cast aluminium Alcyone SVX" badges riveted on.

I kept the JDM ones of my Alcyone XT6. Still think they are super cool lol :lol:

Re: Japanese SVX with Kindergarden Interior
 

Let's not forget the early Porche 928 "checkerboard" seats.

Re: Japanese SVX with Kindergarden Interior
 

Early Porsche, VW. Tamato - Tomato
Here's one, though hard to get the full impact of the checkerboard in my Dub.

Re: Japanese SVX with Kindergarden Interior
 

Ahhh then there's also the XT-Turbo checkerboard interior. Especially yummy in brown LOL No its not as bad as the 928's checkerboard, but still......

Re: Japanese SVX with Kindergarden Interior
 

Very similar to the patterns you would see on the floor of a pub.. all the better to hide the vomit :barf:

Is it just me or is the suede detail on the doors and passenger dash silver??
