I don't think that the SVX itself has a history of being an unreliable car. I think that all models have their issues, but overall Subaru cars are definitely better than average. I would put them slightly lower on my dependability scale than Toyota (who, I will admit, can do no wrong in my mind), but Subaru handicaps themselves by building inherently more complicated cars.

We just see the problems over and over here on this site because people see it as a place to go for answers.

The SVX is also a car that can be a hell of a lot of fun to drive hard, and that alone will shorten the lifespan of parts.
