Re: Cars Comparable with SVX

True that.

But we have speed sensitive wipers! That's pretty sweet too!

And without sounding too cliche, I also think there is no car directly comparable to the SVX. The vr-4 maaaayyybe, but it and the SVX were two different animals. The vr-4 was more sport-luxury, and the SVX was more luxury-sport. If subaru'd have been crazy enough to build a twin turbo monster, there would have been even less of them though. They'd have cost $40k USD, and no one would have bought it.

I'm sure the vr-4 wouldn't have been horrible in the winter, but subie's awd systems have always been superior, in my opinion. I would much rather have the SVX in snow than a VR-4. And honestly, how many vr-4's ever saw snow anyway? I'd bet not many.
