Registered SVX
The SVX was initially released in '92 At that time, there was a 5mph bumper law. You can't go wrong being over the mandate, and I can't see Subaru going to the expense to downgrade the safety of an existing model. That would have meant engineering new structures, and recertifying them.

I'd bet a dollar against a doughnut that the later SVXi still meet the 5mph standards.
