Does this Ebay beauty belong to one of us

Very nice looking car on Ebay at
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Subaru-SVX-F...US_Cars_Trucks
Does it belong to anyone here or anyone here have knowledge of it.
Price actually sounds reasonable for the work done(I guess). No mention of transmission mods /repair though.

Now that's a weird hot air intake system. What a wasted effort.
Nice car but cloth seats.

"Fully loaded".

The red is nice, but I'm not a fan of the black hood stripe.

Don't think that is a H6! lol


It is a really nicely done car but no ABS, FWD and the cloth interior make it somewhat undesirable.

Dead red. If I wanted red it would not be that RED!

Re: Does this Ebay beauty belong to one of us

Re: Does this Ebay beauty belong to one of us

Missed the FWD only part. Keep forgetting Subaru's brief flirtation with FWD SVXes. Noted the wrong picture of the engine (emailed that to the seller as a kindness) and asked about the trans history for grins. Kind of like the red with the black hood playing off the black roof line and trunk. Loaded is a bit of a hoot for an "L". I'm also not sure the cloth interior per se is undesirable with all the crappy leather seats out there now. I have that industrial look fabric in my 95 and hopefully this spring we will install some black and grey Impreza seats in the front (first).

But has the "very rare clear Euro headlights"

And is the very rare XLE model, with a one-year warranty too.

And EVERYTHING except the "perfect" interior had been replaced only 5,000 miles ago. Maintained by a certified mechanic who started when he was 17!

This car looks like one that a member on here was building up. I don't remember the name though.
