Re: New U.K. owner

Thank you. We all here this side of the water anyway would love to see pictures of your motor.

Over in the US they have never seen a CXD [and at one time fought tooth and nail to deny the possibility of their existence! ], but here in RHD land we love them.

If you are used to a 380hp RX7 you will find the SVX quite leisurely, it's a smooth GT rather than a sports car. Best advice I can give you is to leave so-called "Power Mode" permanently on using the button on the gearchange console. The green light in the centre below the clocks will light up. This sharpens up the gearbox response making kickdown a little quicker and so on.

Joe
