 Do you live near an airport? With an 11.8:1 compression ratio (and no smart engine management like we have), Premium isn't going to cut it. Aviation fuel every day. With a 3.73 rear end, it's not much of a racer. But it's definitely not a daily driver either. It looks like it's just another Saturday evening cruiser. Another cookie cutter car with a lot of expensive bolt-on parts from the local auto parts shop. OEM SHOCKS? It might be a fun car for about a month, after the first rain storm (not to mention winter), I'd be hating myself for dumping a perfectly good economical SVX!  imho, Dan PS: If you're getting financing to buy the car, ask the seller to 'bump up' the price some so you can get some extra funds and keep the SVX!

Cookie cutter? was your svx hand made?
 I just moved in with my girlfriend which is 3 minutes from work (and rent is a lot cheaper  ) so mpg doesn't mean anything now. It'll be used to drive to work twice a week and yeah, it'll be a saturday cruiser. Oh and it runs fine with 94 octane.I'm not going to get into a 400whp sports car vs svx debate, that's apples and oranges.. and I'm tired of driving my slow apple.

Damn man, your SVX was the first SVX I ever saw in person. Don't get rid of it. That car is just too nice. Screw a Z28, don't become a redneck.

Your SVX is slower than what you want, and you are not happy owning it.
Sell it, and have fun with your Camaro. (:

3500 seems fair if the condition is good.

Are you still in Columbus? I saw mention of the north east. Columbus, OH is not the north east.
In college my fun car was a 95 Camaro with an LG Motorsport 383. It was insanely fast; in fact, it was scary. Car would burn out clear through 4th gear. It got about 8 MPG and toasted tires FAST. Way too fun once in a while. On the down side, if it even looked like there was a chance of rain you couldnt drive it.
