Where are they now?
 

I have often wondered what became of the earlier SVX prototypes. Does anyone know where they are now? Anyone have pictures that we haven't seen before?

I often drive by the Subaru USA HQ in Cherry Hill and wonder if there's anything interesting stored there!?!??! Hmmmmmm......

i think about that all the time......guess thats one thing we will never know :confused:

They're usually destroyed... most prototypes are. i think it would be very rare for one to be kept...

I think the prototype that was showed at 89 tokyo autoshow is still kept in somewhere with other subaru show cars. Only it was painted in red. I saw pictures somewhere. The bumpers were cracked little bit. And it's not drivable anymore.
I will post pics when I found those.

Do you guys like the prototypes?

I heard the other SVX show car, "SVX Greenish air" is actually owned by someone and driven everyday in Japan. ..

The production silver SVX that was first displayed at Tokyo auto show(the one Giugiaro actually sat on the seat) is still in good shape, driven by people who really care about SVX.

owning one of the prototypes would be kinda nice but just tell me where i can get that trunk lid and ill be happy :D someone needs to make one.

Wynndi,

Only the SVX pace car is stored in the Cherry Hill, NJ area.
The last I heard it was not in running conditin.

If I lived even remotely near cherry hill I'd be knocking on their door every day pestering them until they either let me play with the pace car, or got a restraining order....

HEY, how about a Cherry Hill NJ meet? 30 SVXi show up in the Subaru parking lot:D I'm SURE they would let us in to see the pace car.

Why stop at 30? We had close to 100 before.

OK!:D

I would definitley be up for that.

Count me in! Late spring?!

Someone had pics of that pace car at one time. Are there any that haven't been posted?

I have 2 pics of the prototype in my locker.

if you show up in Cherry Hill looking for the Pace Car you'll be in the wrong town.
