I'm coming back....Hopefully

It's been long over due for a post here. As some of you know, I was the owner of two SVX'n some years ago, and due to recent explosions in my Mazdaspeed Protege's engine compartment, I am looking to return to the SVX world for my DD and commuter car.

The only problem is that the market is dry here in Idaho, so if anyone has an SVX they are in the know of, I have cash, and I want it soon.

Little too steep on the price there. Trust me, I want it, just don't have that kind of cash. Thinking more in the price range of $4000 or less.

$12,000.00 might seem a little excessive but I considered purchasing new and couldn't fine anything that cost twice that amount that would come close to the quality of the SVX... believe me, I tried several different brands.

Good luck!
My 3 are enough for me right now. That would be the only one that I would consider parting with and would probably regret losing it.

If I come across one that might work for you I will PM you.

I would sure hope so, seeing as we both share the same first name. We gotta look out for each other, hahaha.

You have a deal!

Would probably be good to take a look at the posts from any member that has a "for sale" for starters.
Since you were a previous owner, but a while back, Seeping-leaking head gaskets are becoming more and more prevalent... mostly not just because of age. Many with very high mileage didn't have that problem several years back. If you run across one with a cracked windshield, the cost of replacement will blow your mind. Many people on this form here resorted to Velcro to keep the sun visors from drooping!

Keith, If you pay a bit more, you should find one that you wouldn't spend a year trying to make a bad one so-so.

One thing I highly recommend... If you find one and it doesn't have HID lights on it, a few bucks to get HID lo-beams will put you in a different world.
Good luck and have a great new year!!

Keith
