SVX Emblem?
 I saw this on "svxistentialist"'s account (...and unceremoniously stole it to put in my locker..  ) and was wondering what it is? Is it a replacement for the Subaru stars on the hood? I haven't seen anything quite like it before.If so.. Is it possible to get them anymore?

That's the JDM Alcyone SVX logo.. they didn't put any Subaru badge on JDM SVX.
I forgot what that graphic represented for though. It's like Thunderbird has its badge on it.. not Ford badge. I see some SVX owners in Japan put Subaru bagde on theirs, while some SVX owners in US put Alcyone SVX badge. -Ryu

JDM
Sorry, I meant Japanese SVX, SVX in Japan. Some say "JDM style".. So I somehow used the word "JDM" SVX. Sorry for confusing. -Ryu

JDM = Japanese Domestic Market
the SVX is called the Alcyone SVX in Japan.

I got this from a Japanese guy visiting my company from Japan. He knew the SVX. It sounds Italian. Al-See-own-eeee. There are few "historical" threads on this subject.

My .02 cents...
Alcyone is Greek, for the Pleiades which is the constellation that is on the Subaru emblem. The JDM emblem remides me of the Decepticon emblem from the Transformers cartoon...

Click on this link and then click on the red speaker: http://www.m-w.com/cgi-bin/dictionar...cyone&x=9&y=14 or here: http://www.subaru-svx.net/photos/fil...cess/20735.wav If it's on your license plates, you'd best know how to pronounce it I've had ALCYONE on my Maryland plate for over three years. After I got my plates I contacted the New York Public Library to have them research the proper pronunciation. They took my email address and phone number and promised to get back to me. Within 45 minutes I received a call from the Haydn Planetarium and, later that day, the Columbia University Observatory. They both had the same pronunciation: el-SIGH-uh-nee I also checked with Mt. Palomar Observatory when I was in California last summer: same pronunciation.
