Watch closely....it looks like his left rear tire comes off the ground. Maybe there's a little ramp that makes his tires jump and lose traction?

P.S. He is carrying a teddy bear, and the gun is in his other hand. I dont know where the bear was before......

I have done exactly that in my SVX. It's easy as pie.

It's especially fun in sweeping corners at 60+mph when you're sliding through with the tail out and all four wheels scrabbling for traction.... with WRXes trying like mad to catch you and failing miserably.

Life is good.

That actually might be a beaver, it kept popping up throughout the movie. Youd have to see it to know what i'm talking about. I would explain it but I don't remember the name of the person or movie they took it from.

I'm not so sure. I think the rear wheel slide was made possible
by stompin the gas, and also the unloading of the suspension
when the car goes down and then up, at the intersection.
Makes me want to go try it.........

It could also be possible they loaded the back with some extra weight to help swing the back end over.

Good luck to those of us with front wheel drive

On the other hand knowing how often I change wheel bearings Granny drivin, and what I know now about this transmission.
Nahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh............

Flip CLip from another Movie is possible... After all it's pretty much Cut & paste....

I see Few SVX's on TV but Now that I own one I"ve seen a few more. Just like when I was looking to buy one, They were Rare and odd to find ( still are) yet just as soon as I started driving one, I started Seeing them all over the place.

Weird.........

I KNOW I saw one parked outside his place in one shot.

He's supposed to be a huge fan of Porsche, so I'd guess that he might own an SVX too... if only for the H-6.

The rumor is that in each episode there is always a shot of a Porsche somewhere.

Whaddaya mean, "Somehow." 100 is terribly EASY to find in the SVX. It's trying to "unfind" it, that gives me trouble.

Nice wrx I think it looks even better than the proto drawing. I like the small spoiler on the silver one way better than the ugly wing on the blue one.

That's not a "wing." That's a . . . a . . . "growth."

Appearently It's too easy for an SVX....... Still it was so nice. However fear of being put under a jail in TN, or Ky.. I slowed down.

Besides the interstate forked and the Navy guy went on to VA..
I think me and him rolled on down the road doing 100 to 110 for , gee I don' tknow ( a while) . He passed me.. took me a while to catch up.. I wans't willing to match his current speed of 100 until later.

I figured after 30 mins, if nothing jumped out and grabbed him, that I was safe!!!!!!!!

The car still prefers 80 as normal speed, and 100 for giggles and grins.....

Subaru just needs to stop being stubborn and Make us another SVX.. so they lost a few dollars.. SO has every owner.. Doesn't this make it all EVEN........
