"Best" year/model SVX..?
Okay, another noob-ish question..
In your opinion, SVX owners, which year/model do you consider the "best" for an SVX? I'm looking for one, and I've gone over the "buying an SVX" FAQ and things, but I'd like to see what everyone's personal opinions seem to be. Thanks in advance!

Depends on driving style and weather and whether you like leather or not.
92 LS-L has everything I need and nothing I don't. It only goes down from there.

There is no such thing as best years. There are pros and cons to each.
92s are the quickest ones that I know of. 94-5s are ok 96-7s have ODBII.

Depends
If you want cheap--92. If you plan on modding to the max and price is not a limiting factor--95. If you just want a nice driving car with the best the SVX has to offer--97.

I would agree with Lee on that. The other answer could be " the one you have in your driveway."

the correct answer is: one that's been taken care of.
(i would still be nervous in a '92 or '93, but that's just me.)

If you want basicly a honda with alot of windows, get an L model with front wheel drive. less likely to explode...but hell, it just isnt an svx...
the LS model is probly my favorite. For some reason I just hate sunroofs...the headliner they use for the non-sunroof cars is really cool  But yeah,. the best svx is the one that has had good matinence.

Sunroof
I happen to like sunroofs, but there is just a liiiiitttttlee bit more head room in the SVXs without them.

I like the 92's because they were the first ones made. I don't know I think I'm just weird but owning one of the first of these groundbreaking cars is a reason I like mine.

93's without a doubt....every single option and only 300...having that 25th anniversary sticker on my window makes a difference
