You are an SVXer
If you can pronounce Alcyone If you know what an H6 is. If you can tell that the wheels are on backwards If your inside Easy Pass transponder, your radar detector, and your garage door opener don't work. And the number one reason is: You're an SVXer if you know what Polo Green looks like

Larry,
Admitting I'm dumb gets easier and easier as I get older and older....so (with more than a little tongue in cheek):
I know how Webster's wants me to pronounce Alycone, not sure how it comes out when spoken in Japanese - or for that matter how someone who speaks English would say it (in contrast to the American language). Being from an area not strong in Subarus in general (nearest dealer 75+ miles away), I have to admit I've never see the Polo Green in real life (just net pics). In fact I've only seen Pearlies, Ebony, and whatever the red in '94 was called (Claret? I've led a very sheltered life as you can see). I can tell "backwards" for the spoked wheels, but I'm wondering if my spare has a preferred side. Do you just put it on backward if it's on the left vice the right - and is the right side the "right" side? I know what H-6 means, but I don't understand it (flat-six makes sense, but I don't see the H - probably need new glasses). I really am clueless on what configuration from VW produces a W-8 or W-12. |

H = Horizontal, as in horizontally opposed.
The VW engines are basically a combination of two V's...(2 V's) VV = W

And the number one reason is:
You're an SVXer if you know what Polo Green looks like [/B][/QUOTE] And furthermore.... You think cupholders are for wimps. You've enrolled in a college course entitled "Advanced care & maintenance of Escaine Materials - Secrets of the Pros". At the beach you place a conch shell to your ear & hear... bearing noise! You take a dozen snapshots of your taillights because the condensation has finally disappeared. You actually show these snapshots to your inlaws. And, to borrow one from the DSM club...You know you're a SVXer when your local tranny repair shop calls YOU for advise. Ron.

... you are a member of a SEX uh.. I mean SVX club. (An old story to look up if you are a newbie here).
... you can tell the difference between a tranny fluid burning smell and engine oil burning smell without even opening the hood of a car. ... you hear the word "meet" and you have shortness of breath ... you know more about the SVX than the dealer knows about the car ... you memorized the VIN sequence for all trims and years (I have ) ... when you see another SVX, you stare at the car till the people in the other car run away. ... you met Larry Singer and Randy Johnson and had drinks with them at the BAH! Next!

You're a real SVXer if you (this is an old one from the Yahoo Club) :
Hold the keyfob on your chin (forehead, in my case) and then press the button. Remove an engine part so a Japanese man can sign it, even though you can neither spell nor pronounce his name. Put a Hawaiian license plate on your car at the next meet. Write the car's initials backwards on the underside of the spoiler so they reflect in the proper sequence on the highly polished trunk lid. I rest my case.
