There is a lovely photo of 2 SVX's for the month of June in the SVX Calendar.
Isn't one of those cars, your red beauty, Mr. Pockets?
And wasn't it known as , "The Cube-mobile" at one time?

Actually, the red '93 is mine and the claret/black '92 is my mom's. I took that photo about an hour after we picked hers up.

My mom was visiting me in VT last June. She absolutely fell in love with the SVX, so I looked in the paper. Lo and behold, there was a '92 in the paper. I got directions and we went to look at the car.

I sorta didn't tell her it was over an hour away, either. If I had said that, she never would have gone to look at the car.

The car was in perfect shape. An even 40k miles. Mom drove the car far enoguh to get to 60MPH and said 'okay, tell me how much this car is really worth - I want it!'

And the rest, as they say, is history. My mom's had a lot of really cool cars in her life (Corvair, Mustangs, etc), but the SVX is her favorite.
