No reason to apologize to me. I don't feel offended in any way, shape or manner. You asked a valid question. No problemo.
The SVX has issues with being floored off the line, but then again so do a lot of modern engines, especially highly tuned scooters (o.k. - motorcycles.) If you dump a lot of air into them all at once they take a moment to catch up. Add in a little bit of tall gearing and things are going to become snail-like, relatively.
Remember, these cars were near the top of the heap over ten years ago - they're no longer near the pinnacle of production engineering. Truth be known, today they're about average performers. Then again you're not paying out $25000+ (well, most of us aren't) for one.
