This is not only a great idea but is probably a must for certification under the classic/collector regulations of the national automobile insurance underwriters association. I would venture a guess that they require some form of paid membership, unless the marque maintains a national/international registry on behalf of its members (such as the Rolls-Royce owners association). This group could provide three types of membership; interest, owner, collector. We could come up with specific names for these, but they would indicate whether or not the member is: (1) a person with an interest in the SVX, perhaps a potential owner; (2) a person who owns one or more SVXs, either as regular drivers or for other purposes; and (3) a person who owns one or more SVXs for the purpose of exhibit and/or investment potential. I would suggest the first two categories include free membership, but the third must require some per-car fee and a registry. In other words, membership would result in both the owner and the car being listed in a national registry. The registry should be a record-keeping branch that maintains an annual report on each registered vehicle, along with the annual fee. I would propose that the registry charge an initial registration fee with annual membership fees. If the SVX is ever to have lasting value as a collectible, NOW is the time to get this, or some other system off the ground. Again, great idea.Preston

I agree and once I get my Impreza back form the shop I really want to reduce the milage I put on my SVX. I got it from my Brother and Sister-in-law in April and I'v already but 13k on it. But for the sake of not having to stop driving the car altogether I"d drive it only 3k a year. I'll have to check what NH had for these catagories. Insurance for me right now is around $1500 a year and the gas isn't helping either. I might reduce driving it to only meets and just to keep it running. Is there any clasification for "low" original miles? 86K here on my 94 LSi.( I know it's low on average but I'm talking on a non-SVX classing.)
