NOT! There were NO turbo SVXes made in Japan or elswhere. There are those who've installed turbos on their cars, but there are no STOCK turbo SVXes.

We've all been through this for years. We have never, ever seen any evidence of a turbo SVX being built by Subaru. And you're talking about hundreds of us looking for such a thing. It just doesn't exist.

Yes, owners have fit turbochargers to their SVXs, but none ever came that way from the factory.

It does exist!

But it does, it does!!! I have a photo of the mock up that I paid $5000 on Ebay for from a disgruntled body stylist who took it from the warehouse when he could not get a vending machine to return his money!

I tell ya's, its real!!! The Japanese airport cleaners use them to tow baggage trains around Narita airport!
