Re: 1994 blue SVX
Oh damn.
Why does this happen to me. Right color, right options, right year, probably a good deal, and RIGHT IN MY BACK YARD. within 50 miles. and me, here with not a lot of spare money. Does it have one or two airbags, or automatic seat belts? A Thousand bucks? would that do it? I have a motorcycle (89 Hawk GT 650) that I am trying to sell... maybe some sort of a trade?

Re: 1994 blue SVX
As much as I would like to trade for a bike my wife probably would view that as going in the wrong direction.
I am going to return the remanufactured MAF I installed and have them send me another one. Seriously car didn't want to start when the new sensor went in. It then ran like a dream for 1 1/2 days and then crapped out again. Got to be a bad sensor. If I can get this thing running I would prefer to sell it running (obviously) and since I have already plunked down the money for the MAF and it is warrantied I am not out anything having them exchange it. If the new MAF solves the issues, looking at 2000-2500 for the car. If the new MAF doesn't help 1000 will take it.

Re: 1994 blue SVX
I am not sure which I should root for... a running car, or a car that will be easier for me to afford.
 Anybody want an 89 Honda Hawk GT 650? I'm trying to sell that for $~2k... It would help get me a blue SVX!! BTW, any pics of the car in question? Last edited by BoxerFanatic; 04-30-2009 at 02:51 PM.

Re: 1994 blue SVX
Are you still selling it even though you got it working?

Re: 1994 blue SVX
Good to hear it is running well.
I wish my Legacy were fairing as well. The clutch is starting to slip at speed, so that might become a big expense soon. Still monitoring this, though. [edit]-cut out the blah, blah, blah....[/edit] Last edited by BoxerFanatic; 05-03-2009 at 10:34 AM.

Re: 1994 blue SVX
I am half tempted to offer you a trade, SVX and cash for my Stage 2 Legacy GT... the hit for 60k service came last week, and now with the clutch... but the car is so nice when it is up and going...

Re: 1994 blue SVX
Car is completely repaired now. New MAF sensor was the problem. Is running smoother and stronger than ever. No stalling.
I have receipts for all significant repair work. In fact this car was bought by the in-laws new. I have records for every drop of gas for roughly the first 8-10 years put in this car. Kelly blue book is 3200-3600. Asking 3400 now that car is back in original condition. Good tires, no rust. I cannot shrink the photos enough to attach them here. PM me if you want me to email the photos to you.
