Thank you very much for your offer. Rojo has already graciously offered.
Just to clarify a bit of context...
I love the car so far. Make no mistake. I have been lurking and poking my head into threads around here for a few months, and this group seems like quite a nice, pretty close knit enthusiast community.
Things like odd lug nuts are puzzling, and broken studs and bolts can get aggravating... and something to talk about day to day...
But I am still very stoked to have one of these unique cars (just hair-width too unique, perhaps
), and am still a bit amazed that I was able to move fast enough, and Roo was gracious enough to handle the seller half of the transaction, and drive the car out here.
I am quite glad to have an SVX, and it has even slightly amended my perception of my Legacy GT, with a bit of alternative Subaru context.
H6 compared to turbo H4... auto compared to manual, the attention to detail that the SVX has, and the more modern features that the Legacy has. My legacy's lowered, tight and under-damped but very direct handling, compared to the SVX's slightly less focused, but more comfortable, easy grand-touring competence.
I can only imagine how fantastic a combination of the best qualities of both would be... And unfortunately Subaru is continuing to limit that to my imagination, by not building a successor to SVX.
I am still quite positive, and will be even more glad when the SVX has it's rear wheel properly attached again.
Thanks again, guys for volunteering.
