guess what i found... and where..

you're right!!
... i found '92 owners video in my rear quarter panel... what the heck was it doin there?!?! i was checkin out my broken power antenna, and saw a black cassette case, i was amazed, and assumed the previous owner had forgotten 'bout some... tape he might of made, this might even be better though!! that guy had owned the car since new, so i figure this has been in there for 'bout 14 years... looks good though, i'm gonna try it out tomorrow... these things worth anything?!

Great find. I bet a lot of our viewers are going to be pulling out their trunk panels this weekend.

Cool. I've never seen one. I have the dealer training videos somewhere in my basement, but never heard of an owners video for it. Do you have a vhs player? I can't even remember seeing vhs in the rental store last time I went in.

When I finally got sick of listening to change bounce around in the tray under the passanger seat I found a bunch of mp3s on cds in there. Some were pretty good.

I was very fortunate some years ago to find a couple of "training" videos at a dealer in Herndon, VA. I asked what they were planning to do with them, and they said I could just "have them!! I couldn't believe it, but I took them up on their offer. One was pretty neat, comparing the Mitz 3000 GT FWD with the SVX. Obviously the SVX was the better car, hands down!

I would hang on to any of these things you find and maybe transfer them to DVD for keeping. Don't sell it on E-Bay! You'll regret it!

Pretty cool!
Yup, those vids came with all '92's. I still have mine around somewhere. I starts and ends with a montage of '92's of various colors, but most of the vid is a not-too-bad-looking young lady demonstrating the various features of a perlie '92, with a male narrator voice-over.

One of our board members sells a DVD with both of these videos and 2 or 3 others that haven't been mentioned yet in this thread.

I think he was selling them for $20 ???, Well worth it if you ask me

Hey- I just looked in my QP and there was a video, a seat warmer module and an embroidered SVX leather Jacket.

Then I woke up!

Seriously though, I have one of the DVD's from ebay, it has the salesman intro video, the new owner intro, the pre-sale tech walk thru and something else for the techs. It is a great DVD and makes me love the SVX more every time I watch it.

Good Score on the video.

Oh yeah- the SVX Vs. Mit 3000 GT is done a wet skidpad....guess who wins?

His name is John Rowe (john 19688) and is the same one who did the SVX die cast models. I sent him my original Owner;s Information video so he could include it on his DVD. As he burns them from time to time, he purs them on ebay. The latest DVD has 6 sections:

The "Our New Look" Subaru video
The Owner's Information Video
The 1996 Sales Training Video
Technical Overview
Pre-Delivery Inspection
Zexel Climate Control

I don't have his email address, but try him at (919) 677-4144

Ya know...after ripping apart my entire interior, how come I never found anything like that? The coolest thing I found was an elephant air freshener.....

My dad got me the dvd off ebay for Christmas and i have to say its a great video (outdated but great). I learned where all the doodads were and what all the odd buttons did. Very helpful and it makes me able to laugh at new owners with common new svx owner issues (steering wheel tilt, security system, ect...) It was 26 dollars but worth every penny. I dont know if anyone would buy it, i see a lot of original booklets and car dealership stuff sell on ebay so i assume it would sell.

My cars first owner accidentally forgot to put hers back in the car when she sold it but she threw it away after a few years. (she says she would watch it when she missed the car.)

It has some great shots of the car, makes you really see how pretty the svx is. (not that i didnt know she was pretty before)

I bought the DVD, I haven't had a chance to view it yet.

Maybe some quiet evening between ski season and whatever is next . . .
