Spring and SVXi are finally here in Winnipeg!
Well it's finally starting to look like spring here in Winnipeg. The temperatures are finally in the double digits (°C) ...that means in the 50's for those who still think in °F.
The SVXi are starting to sprout. I saw a red one friday while I was on my way to one of the Juno Awards activities. I also saw a pearlie on my way to work today. I'm so excited! It was too bad that on both occasions I did not have any extra time to give chase like the crazy owners we are.

Wow, another one. This one was a silver. Once again unable to take chase.
This is turning into a Manitoba sightings thread.

I saw another SVX. This one was green and used to belong to a member (bjones). It now belongs to his son. He has his own account here but I'm not 100% sure if he said it was "awdfan".

Glad to hear you all survived hibernation!

Hibernation??? Bah, I was out playing in the snow with winter tires on my SVX and the suspension set to its highest setting.
I think I was the only one though.

Koni's are $660 from Classicgarage.com Coilovers I ordered through Subaru of Gwinnett. I think they are $400. My rear struts were completely shot (bouncy). I needed to replace them but the local dealership wanted about CAD$375+tax each! I decided to go Koni/GC because I'm in the habit that when I need to replace something in my car I'd like to improve it over stock one way or another.

Saw 2 yesterday. First was a pearlie belonging to a member here by the name of "flirtychick" who just posted her first message here today. I didn't see her but I left a card and a gift on her windshield reminding her of the forum.
The other was a silver that was on Portage Ave. (in case you're reading this) of which I did not know/see the owner. I also left a card and gift on the windshield. Gift = SVX static window sticker

Saskatchewan Sighting
Hey, I saw one in Saskatchewan today, in my garage.
I guess the only good thing about being the only one in Sask. was that I was able to order custom Sask. plates that read 'SVX'.

Well it's not spring anymore but this is kind of a sighting thread for me so I will say that a claret followed me home last night.
...well it wasn't my home at that time...but it is NOW!! ...it's also not my SVX as when I turned into the driveway it drove off. I was hoping the owner would have stopped but oh well. I would have chased except we were with our realtor and putting the offer in on this house (which we won that night). The only 2 clarets I know of in Winnipeg are Ralph's (on the network) and Sid's (not a member).

I saw a silver yesterday on my way home from work.
There was an asian girl driving while on her cell phone. I wasn't going to flag her down since she was distracted enough as it was. I watched her miss a turn, make a quick u-turn to correct that mistake then pulled into a gas station then immediately out again. The car had seen better days too.
