I would love a pearl white car, particularly one in as good a condition as yours.

Thanks Joe You can't really see it in the pictures but it is covered in filth. It seems to get dirtier in the garage than out.

-clay bared & quick detailed

- nice coat of nxt wax

- shampooed carpets

- removed dash kit


Tomorrow I need to get some bug/tar remover to get rid of the left
over glue. What's funny is that I don't know if I like the new kit I bought
lol.


I really need to suck it up and pop on those clear lenses I've had on my shelf since april. I still don't know if baking or cutting is the way to go, but I do know I'm going to fudge it up ^_^

Is that a glass panel in your roof? How'd you do that?

this is going to be a down day for me

[DarknessofDeath]

i installed a grille (to try to keep rocks from bending fins) on my fmic. i think i have a loose bolt holding the BPV. ~ not SVX

Looks like a Laguna Blue L, not an LSI, as indicated by the fake leather dash, grey interior trim instead of suede and the lack of a factory sunroof opening. That is also an aftermarket moonroof.

Your words confuse me sir.

Are your seats leather? When hes talking about the dash, he means the door panels/under the steering wheel/right in front of the passenger seat. In an LS or LSi model, that would be the suede like material, not the vinyl material. Only the L models have the vinyl material there, unless someone has changed it all out (like mine, lol) Also, NO SVX ever came with a glass moonroof from the factory. That is totally aftermarket. I have only ever seen it on a red SVX before, until now. That is one good looking SVX you have there. But as stated, I believe it is an L model as well.

Some other ways to tell...

The vin, obviously would be the best way

Does it have heated mirrors?
Does it have AWD?
Does it have ABS?
Does it have a stock woodgrain dash, or is it all grey behind the dash kit?
Does it have leather seats, or cloth?
Does it have leather shifter/ebrake handles and steering wheel?


Could you post some pictures up of the interior of your car? My point of interest being the headliner. I would like to see what they did for that sunroof.

Thanks -Dennis

Does it have heated mirrors? nope

Does it have AWD? Yes ( confirmed at emissions testing , in the rain ,auto shop ,and autox XD )

Does it have ABS? Yes

Does it have a stock woodgrain dash, or is it all grey behind the dash kit? Grey behind the dash kit

Does it have leather seats, or cloth? Leather

Does it have leather shifter/ebrake handles and steering wheel? Yes

VIN: JF1CX3350SH100465




















I posted a question about my SVX model and someone confirmed it to be an LSI,my insurance company
list it as an L but it has all the features of an LSI 0_o, wtf yo

[Tim]

Those are the fabric seats from an L, re-wrapped in custom leather. That does not look like how the factory leather seats look, and also because it has the manual adjusters. Looks like whoever owned your car before you really took the time to get all the same features later on .

The exterior looks so flawless. All svxes should look like that.

[Rhoujin]

I'm so disillusioned


Thank you Tim ^_^

I'm trying to do some light restoration work before I go back to grad school this fall

[Mike621]

Yes, that is an aftermarket Leather interior. The "H" in your vin designates that it is an AWD model, this one being L AWD with safety pkg (ABS, Speed sensitive steering). If there had been a "K' in the same spot of the VIN, it would designate the car as a FWD model from the factory.
