Knowing people (a person is smart, people are dumb), they would assume all SVXes regardless SVX I or SVX II are all the same. Crappy design and all... so although I love SVXes to death, there has to be a limit. You all know I love SVXes. Why would I get 3 of them one after another when I had a chance to get something else. If I had the money, I'd go get another tomorrow as a little present for myself.

I never (in a million years) thought I'd say this - but - Lwin said something dumb! (Okay, just my opinion, but sheesh, don't trash a good old just because of a bad new.)

Anyway, I disagree, Lwin. Regardless of what has come after the SVX, I love mine for what it is and not how well it compares to something built ten years later.

Update the interior? The SVX's is beautiful the way it is. Just because it doesn't have certain design cues that make you think 'new' doesn't mean squat. It was remarkable for the time and mine is still a joy to sit in every time.
(Ayn would be proud of you, Nick.) Who shrugged? Did somebody shrug? I thought maybe somebody shrugged.
