anyone ever done this during an SVX sighting?
I find myself doing it everytime .
Im driving down the road, and you get a glimpse outta the corner of your eye or for some reason a nice looking car catches your eye, and for a split second youre like "wow thats a great looking car...." and then realize its an SVX and your a driving around in the same model car !!?? Then I start thinking, "does everyone else get as excited" as you do when they see one driving in traffic or is it just us owners ?? hehe. But seriously while your driving one all the time you dont a chance to see it from "the other view" And I know I dont get to see one driving on the road often enough to make it not exciting... Or maybe its just me

I see a few driving around, and I do get a little excited.
Hey, another one, cool. My son and I have a deal, if either of us spot an SVX we get IceCream.

I get the same feeling, it's awesome to see another one, dang, I love these cars, there is a Green 94 LSi that some lady owns, I see her a lot at work, then the other day, I couldn't believe it, I saw a Claret '97 drive by, I wanted to turn and talk to the owner, but being there was nowhere to turn, I was unable to.......but yeah, I just love seeing other SVXes on the road!!!

Which reminds me... anybody noticed how similar the rear of the SVX is to the Italian Alfa Romeo 164? Walter

Dayle,
It happens to me alot. I usually pull a u-turn and chase down the SVX m make him pull over and give him a Network windshield note. This happens, whether I'm in our SVX or Outback wagon. The SVX driver probably thinks that he's: 1) About to get car-jacked. 2) I'm a nut. 3) Our website is full of SVX crazies and one is standing in front of him.

Or all the above - They are about to be car-jacked by a nut who is a member of an internet group of SVX crazies!

I think the same thing on those rare occasions when I do see another SVX on the road. Usually it is when I am driving the Cruiser and see the SVX when I pull into the driveway that I stop to think, "Damn, that's a sexycar!". The wife is always yelling at me when we go out as a family in the Cruiser to "Stop staring at your freakin car!".
