Re: SVX's 20th Anniversary

Heh... all this pearlie love makes me miss my old '94. Of course, the rose-tinted spectacles don't help... I know when look back on some of my emails from that time period that my pearlie was the most troublesome car I think I've ever owned. Yeah, even worse than my 1985 Pontiac Fiero... and that's saying something. Doesn't mean though that I don't think the pearl/black was the RIGHT colour for the SVX...

Re: SVX's 20th Anniversary

ugh. i love those wheels on that color. it's so slick. i wonder what a white one would look like with those? white is a hard color for wheels. white wheels would look like a cheap ricer. black wheels make it look like a police car. i was thinking... maybe gold bbs wheels?



they work on sti's.
not even thinking about that now. i have other things i need to put my money too

Re: SVX's 20th Anniversary

The silver STi BBSs looked great on my white car. The darker grey ones I bet would look fantastic though. I think the pearly is the wrong color for the gold ones. The STi is more of a classic regular white, so it works. But yea those are the best possible rims for an SVX as far as I'm concerned. I'm already looking for a gold set for my new black one.

All three colors of them are shown here: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=54928

Thank you I am very happy with it. Just got little things to always deal with you know. But it is a 20 year old car. And no its not just you there is a small gap where the bumper was pushed down, the body shop is waiting on my insurance and they are waiting on me. I have to leave the car for a few days and I dont want to.... last time I left it the stereo got stolen, the body shop replaced it but I dont want the hassle lol so im procrastinating.

Hi Earl- Guys in Japan are wondering how you ended up having so many SVXs. If you don't mind, could you pls share your story how you got into SVX, and collecting so many? How do you maintain them, how do you store so many of them, etc... Only if you don't mind telling us. Thanks!

I remember exactly when and where I fell in love with. That was that tri-tone at this intersection.... I was still a kid riding bicycle... And story goes on and on...

Re: SVX's 20th Anniversary

Pearly envy... I miss mine too. That really is the most perfect color for the SVX. Maybe I'll get another one someday... Though two seems quite enough, lol.
