Re: SVX mention in "Automobile" mag.

The article is generally favorable, but criticizes the styling as being 'handsome but innocuous' to the point that "...The new Legacy would be the perfect getaway car - no two witnesses would agree on the brand...."

It's in this context that the SVX gets a mention: "...You can't really blame Subaru for being gun-shy, however, whenever it gambles on styling, as in the SVX, it ends up with bizarre cars that are purchased in small numbers by equally bizarre engineering enthusiasts."

Bizarre engineering enthusiasts, huh? Come to think of it, I guess that applies to most of us, no?

ps: For any who take umbrage at the above, the writer is Tony Quiroga at automobilemag.com

Let's all drop Tony an e-mail and show him how "small" and "bizarre" we REALLY are! <evil grin>
