Blue-silver-blue SVX

Some of you might remember this person selling his SVX with high price tag. It's blue top/trunk, silver body, blue lower body unusual 2 tone SVX.

BlueSilverSVX @ yahoo.auto

Well the other day, thanks to my GF who accidentally saw it on the street, she pulled over and took some photos with her cell phone.

By looking at photos, it looks better than the photo on the yahoo.auto or do you think its same? My GF told me it was nice and shiny, looked like mint condition. Maybe that's why the price is so high..







Sorry to say it's not my taste, but if the upper part of the bumpers is silver as body color, it might look nicer.

Anyone here owns this one?

Interesting looking car. Kinda has that look that the Black-white-black svx out in nevada, where it follows the same color scheme. Though i am not partial to either, i must say i prefer the black-white-black.

Doesn't do anything for me. The triple-tone European/JDM paint scheme follows the beltline around the molding, this one just looks like he replaced the cladding with parts from a Laguna Blue.

Where did you find that photo? I remember photoshopping that image years ago. When I had my pearlie (no spolier), I wondered what it would look like to have a two-tone pearl and black paint scheme, and pearl matching wheels.

After I did this image, I played with it a little more. I chopped the top just slightly and tinted the windows. I also enlarged the stock wheels to see kow they would look as 18".

If I had unlimited funds and nothing better to do, I would find a way to have the stock wheels recast as 17" or 18". I think it is a beautiful design that would be even better looking in a larger size.

Using the recessed channel in the front and rear bumpers as a dividing line between colors is much better; flows perfectly with the side cladding. This is the way Subaru did it.

Since retiring as a graphic designer in 2004, I haven't done any photoshopping at all. My Big Mac went down 2 days before I left my job and I took the whole system with me when I left. I wonder how much of my internals are left after almost 3 years of non-activity?

Believe me, if I had my graphics applications up and running, the network would be the first recipient of my expertise.
.

My network photoshops:

http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/fil...cess/38825.jpg
http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/fil...cess/14177.jpg


and then of course this one. simplest, yet generated the most controversy. Many changes throughout... look closely. I have an actual printout in full color... indistinguishable from the original.

And if you did 17" recast, I'll purchase them right away.
