Subaru SVX highlight at an Autoshow in Russia...

[Tim]

The sides remind me of a Rx8... I think without the wing and maybe a better looking front end with a more subtle paint job, it'd be pretty bad ass

What is that thing where the AC compressor should be?

looks like a catch can of some sort for oil or coolant overflow

Good to see some ecutune credit. seems he also did some porting to the heads, and a 5 speed swap....beefy ass radiator, some brake upgrades. Not bad, not bad....

The bodywork was done very well, just not in my tastes. The front bumper is actually pretty badass though, but the headlights just need clear covers. I dont even mind seeing a fully adjustable rear wing on the car...OR massive heat extractors on the bonnet...but the wheel arches, side skirts, rear bumper, and color just...yuck. The interior is an abrtion of electronics, mismatched colors, and horrid grapgics, and the engine bay is even worse. Cripes man, at least POLISH the aluminum crap for the photoshoot, or better yet...get a less rusty battery tie-down...Or use less diffrent colors...something!

YEah...A friend of mine recently called and asked about that car. it sold like 4 years ago...stock except Bullwinkle riding on the decklid, a warm air intake and an ecu chip

but yeah, that russian car is crazey

You have to understand that this is Russia. They arent exactly up to "speed" on customizing thier cars, at least not to our standards. The owner definatly put alot of time and money into this car. Some of the things he installed were pretty hard to come by where he's at (internet maybe?) and probably very pricey. I know for a fact the Defi gauges are very expensive. Give him some time, he might make some improvements to it. Maybe someone should send him a email with a link to this site?

Throwin in my 2 cents:

the fender flares are awesome, truly bas@ss and nice custom work

the paint, spoiler, ebay mirrors, and stickers everywhere, definitly no - somebody needs to let him know that clean is the new classy.. i keep trying to picture how godamn sexy this thing would look as a laguna blue or a cottontail pearlie

i'm really unsure of my own opinion of the headlights - a lot of time spent going for the supra look, but the supra look works better on a curvy car like... the supra.
I always thought a silvia conversion or something broader and flatter would update the look of our front end, even angel eyes with a polycarbonate lens

Well now, I usually hate this sort of thing, but ditch the wing and that car actually looks pretty good.

of course....you never see un-painted body kits, more stickers than horsepower, and spinner hubcaps here in the USA.

Excellent point

But, how many SVXi do you see like that one here?

That was my thought. Interesting custom, but I don't like it, especially the interior & wing.

very few ricey SVX's here, and by "few", i mean "a lot".

[redsvx]

You have got to give him credit for all the hard work
Styling and creativity is definitely a matter of personal taste ... obviously he loves what he did.
No matter what anybody else thinks you should be driven by your own ideas.
Well done Vadim Filippov!

...yeah but that car looks 1000 times better than the first time I saw it. Those fended flares do help quite a bit, as does the vanquish meets maserati headlamp work... would be better with covers though

[Speedklix]

I sort of when I saw version 1...
Think I like this one sooo much more just because it atleast follows a consistant style theme all around the car that isn't just "slapped together".

....one alteration compliments the next, ya digg? ...still not a huge fan, but I HAVE to admit it is kinda cool
