Smile Another new member!

I guess it's time to jump in as well. I've been reading these messages and those on the Yahoo SVX group for the past week or so as I too, am a new owner of a 1992 SVX LS-L teal green. This is my first Subaru. I have always been intrigued by the SVX, being a fan of sport/touring cars in general. I've mostly been a Celica, MX-6, Accord owner during my 18 years of driving, but finally made up my mind that it was time to try an SVX. The one I purchased has had three previous owners, all in the Chicago area (obvious by all the door dings and bumper scuffs) but is mechanically sound, interior nice except for the back of the driver's seat which I plan to replace, has 92K and I got it for $3,200. I thought this was a good deal after looking at them on the Autotrader site for the past month to six weeks. Anyway, I love it! Everybody asks me what it is, most never seeing one before as I live in the somewhat rural area south of South Bend, IN. The wealth of info on this site as well as the Yahoo group definitely helped me when looking for one as I was able to look and listen for many of the problems that SVX owners run into. Thanks for all the help and I look forward to meeting some of you at future SVX functions. Sorry I just missed the Midwest gathering! Thanks again!

Welcome to the club Dan. If you haven't already located a new backseat, let me know. I have an extra in near-perfect condition I could sell you cheap.

Welcome to the site Dan. In case you didn't know, there is a link to "How-To Documents" on the upper right hand side of the page that will take you directly to them. If you need information very quickly, you can use the search button just below the links. Good luck with the car and I hope you have many enjoyable miles with it.

Thumbs up

Why yes I am Larry. Using this name also prevents me from forgetting who I am on all the different web-based systems i.e. E-Bay, Yahoo, fantasy football, etc... I found out the hard way that using too many different "handles" lends itself to forgetting who you are on each website. While football isn't the forum here obviously, I continue to know who I am. Thanks to everyone for the nice "welcomes." This site and forum is really cool. Besides loving my SVX, having a forum like this is and a common interest with all of you is a real bonus.

Dan,

I know exactly what you mean.

1) My hard drive is definitely developing bad sectors.

or

2) They say memory is the second thing to go. Gee, I wish I could remember the first.
