Ted - post a few pictures of your car in your locker when you have a chance. We would like to see your car and the color.

You are welcome Ted.

Everybody gets the floppy visor thing.

Post up a picture of your car, it does sound unusual.

Welcome to the Network. Ask questions, we'll help or point you in the right direction if we can.

Ok, so you never wanted to post. Maybe you never had anything to say... Maybe there was never an excuse to chime in on or in another thread...

This is your chance... please Say hi! Tell us how long you've been looking

Regulars CHECK IN TOO!!!

No control on this... but maybe if we stuck to one post each it would help too....

Thanks!

(perhaps this could be a Sticky as we approach the 3000 member mark)????

(Edit: I noticed that some have stated that they don't want the list purged. That is not why I wanted to do this. I was hoping that we could just get an idea of how many of the close to 3000 are still with us... I know that many wax and wane ... and I don't desire to lose any more posts than have already been lost.)

Just got a '92, 74,500 mi, new tranny, brakes. Full leather + spoiler, nothing wrong that we've found yet. $2,500.00 Seemed like a good deal.

Hello Oskar,

you are very welcome to the Network.

So far as I know, you are the first Icelandic member we have.

Is it RHD or LHD in Iceland? Post up some pictures of your car.

Joe

Cool My first timw

Hello ALL

um im not sure how to do this, i never been much of a bloger or poster? or thread replying, but im in love.

I LOVE my Svx (Whenever there is a new guard at the gate they ask me what kinda car it is- i grin ear to ear), i saw the SVX up here in alaska, on the "base lemon lot" as we affectionatly call it. I wanted it and new i was going to have it, even when i didnt have any money to my name, and was fixing my prior military Credit problems (laid off twice in florida). I found out this car came from miami, lol it was exotic subaru(always wanted one) and it just was plane sexy, grant it was burried int alot of snow, the guy came to the car wiped the snow off the door, and it started up, it was love at first site, (she purrred at me ) I did everything i could to work out a deal with the guy, i paid 4 grand for it. Paid him monthly 500 dollars. Shes all mine now (this was last year) .

I want to bring her to show room quality with upgrades.

I am and avid tech geek, Aerospace ground Equipment mechanic for the airforce, self proclaimed inventor, Star trek and stargate fan.
I been tossing around an idea of build and electric booster for the car. Somthing that is similar to what we use on the equipment to run the F-15Es engines up for testing.

1992 LS-L Claret
158,000 Mile
Second Tranny (Prior to me)
Wire braided brake lines, Vented Cross drilled, irridium plugs, K&N Filter

PIX coming soon

PS I seen atleast 6 others SVXs up here in anchorage, anyone on this site local to the area?

Hi, I'm Nick, official SVX ambassador for Alaska.

I live in Anchorage and travel out to Elmendorf once a week in either my Caravan or Workhorse. I have probably seen your car, though Clarets are rare around here. My SVX count is somewhere around 27.

We would like to hear what ideas you have for boosting this car. Electric boosters have been discussed and we determine they use too much power for very little if any gains. Your F-15 technology might be a little more efficient.
We can hope at least.

Welcome to the site.

Hi I'm Nick and I got a 92 SVX LS-L Dark Teal almost 96,000 mi. I love it, and don't beat on it. The first time I laid eyes on an SVX, I wanted it. I remember at the Vets Office, it was a Brilliant Red LSI. I'll NEVER forget it. If it wasn't for my cat Limpy, I don't know if I would be typing here right now. I'd take an SVX over most cars. I've had it around 3 years. I got when I was 15 yrs old. It needs a transmission, yea I know join the club. I'm thinking of dropping an 6 speed STi in it. We'll see.
