Re: World Registration

Thanks for posting that Earl. In reality we really don't have a lot of information on non USA cars.

A few things will need to be changed and adjusted. For instance the trim levels that say 'LsL' or 'Lsi', these are US trim levels and have no meaning in Europe in particular.

For JDM cars originating [or currently residing] in Japan the trim levels will be:
  • Version L
  • Version E
  • S40
  • S40ii
  • S3
  • S4

For most if not all European markets there would have been only one trim level. Basically because of the exceptionally high list price charged for the car, the SVX came "fully loaded". All Europe markets would have got leather seats, cruise and abs. As standard. From what I understand in the launch year of '92 driver's airbag was optional, in subsequent years standard. Phase 2 [non black roof 95+] SVXes had 2 airbags as standard.

I am not aware of any European market being offered the Front Wheel Drive SVX, and it's my belief it was never offered in Europe. If any European or World owners have a FWD model SVX, please chirp up and give us details.

Joe
