Re: New SVX in the media sighting
Spotted an SVX in a commercial on the Science channel.
Looks to be a Teal with no spoiler, driving across the Golden Gate bridge. Perhaps it's someone from here? There's a bumper sticker on the drivers side of the rear bumper. The lines on the rear windshield are just reflections

Re: New SVX in the media sighting
Saw one on "How I met your Mother". Should've noted the season and episode. I'm pretty sure it was parked in clear view for extended time.
Also, the movie "Fireproof" features an SVX that wrecks when street racing. Pretty sure, being that it's a low budget movie, they needed something that looked sporty, but was dirt cheap. When they accelerate away from the stop light, the SVX has a healthy (unhealthy, actually) amount of blue smoke coming from the exhaust.

He posted about it back when he was working on it, if you search for "fireproof" by SVXhunter, it should pop up.

Re: New SVX in the media sighting
It's a "Beyond Imagination" commercial (basically a short Science channel infomercial), they are talking about electric vehicles and using electrified roads to power them. The SVX is just coincidentally in front of the camera vehicle during a short clip.
I saw it 3-4 times yesterday, so it should be pretty easy to catch.

Re: New SVX in the media sighting
I saw it mostly during "Through The Wormhole" so that might narrow down what you have to record
