Re: Spoiled by SVX
Holy thread jack. The political forum is the place to debate this.

Just for a moment, think about whether what you're going to type will hold an ounce of merit. The significance of the price of gold and corrupt capitalism hold no standing in this thread. Nobody watches the farm animals with monotone voices to hear a counter to a disagreement. The wallowing and anger get a bit silly quickly. Got some to share? Hit ALT-F4 and count to twenty first. To topic: In some ways, I do miss seeing that Pearly or that Silver in my driveway. Even though one was much less civilized, both were great machines. The countless features, the interior surfaces that make many modern ones seem cheap, the cruise control that is so many times better than that in my Miata... Subaru did do a lot of things right with the SVX that haven't been backed up by more modern machines although they should have. The question that's really being asked here is this: Was the SVX that good, or is the Malibu simply that bad?

Re: Spoiled by SVX
Yes, the Malibu is simply that bad.
My friend has a cobalt..it is like riding in a tin can with cheap plastic trim.. I had a 2005 cavalier coupe.. garbage.. I spent 4 hours driving a Nisan Versa to pick up my svx, most annoying car ever. After about an hour of it I wanted to walk..it was that bad... It spent the entire trip on the highway switching from 3rd to 4th. The shift point is at 65mph.. not fun on a 65mph highway. Last edited by Lookin4SVX; 05-30-2012 at 04:18 PM. |

Re: Spoiled by SVX
I am somewhat in the market for a new daily driver. I guess the Malibu and the Versa are to be avoided.

Re: Spoiled by SVX
XJS is V12 even! Ok, the Corrado shouldn't be that unreliable.

Re: Spoiled by SVX
NO thanks, I already have a temperamental discontinued car from the 90s. Whatever I buy is not going to be more than a year or two old.

Re: Spoiled by SVX
That one is on my list. Actually at the top of my list, but also at the top of my price range.
