OT - What to Buy for Christmas ?
I would like some suggestions on the following dilemma.
As most of you already know, I am in the market to get a loaded '94 pearl/white SVX in addition to my '97 LSi. I also want to get a new H-6, VDC, Outback wagon to replace my '97 2.5L, 4EAT, OD wagon. Since I don't think that I can swing both cars, I was thinking of foregoing the '94 SVX, getting the new VDC Outback and keeping the '97 OB as my beater (beater is a bad term. It will be my every day car.) This will allow me to save my '97 SVX and run it very sparingly. I would appreciate all thoughts and comments. Thanks.

Personnally, I'd just buy a hummer and be done with it.

I hate myself for this!
Foregoing the '94 sounds more practical to me.
Out of curiosity: Why would you choose the VDC over the LLB? (Must be the stereo.) Steve

The VDC has the newer all electronic AWD system. The LLB has the old AWD system. Larry III PS: Steve, I need your e-mail address for the 10th Anniv. SVX Meet Sign-up List. So send me an e-mail. Thanks |

I agree, 100%. Give up that '94 Pearl you were looking at and get the new OB. Now, just where was that '94 and how much did they want for it?

.....and what does the beautiful naviguesser have to say about your plans? "Anything you want is fine by me". That's when it gets dangerous!

Larry -
You could buy both of them, then give me your old OB for Christmas, so I could stop racking up so many miles on the SVX. That would solve a couple of problems at once, dontcha think?

I was originally planning on getting both. However, Osama Bin Laden,s boys squashed that on Sept. 11. It's now one or the other. In a couple of years maybe I can swing the second one. Larry III |

I have some disposable income but I do not have the money trees that a certain blonde SVXer grows in nort Joisey.
My income is based on some investments that I made in certain legitimate businesses in Brooklyn. Larry III |

What would John Buffum do?
I can't understand why you would want a car that negates driver input in an emergency situation.
Do I understand this system correctly? It seems like a good way to collect unwanted trees and SUVs in your bodywork. Steve
