Collectible Automobile magazine

So I was at this car show with my SVX and this guy from the local PT Cruiser club comes up to me and tells me he has a magazine with an SVX article in it.

Turns out to be the April 1997 issue of Collectible Automobile. I don't know if the actual scanned article was ever posted here. I searched but only found a single mention of this article in a past thread.

Well, I talked the guy into lending me his magazine so I could scan it. He has the complete set (20 years?) and was very reluctant.

Well here's the 3 pages of the article for us all to enjoy:

Page 1
Page 2
Page 3

Google pointed me to the same converted to HTML article on the subarusvx.com site.

It's nice to find some of that, even after the many years that SVX's have been on the roads.

Good find Dave - it seems, in the back of my mind, I have seen it before, but I did not have a copy of it ....

Thanks,
Harry

You probably saw it on suburusvx.com, that's where I read it before.

Re: Collectible Automobile magazine

I have a Popular Mechanics magazine from like 94ish that has the SVX compared with other "sport coupes", IIRC it's the 300ZX, SVX, Probe , and one other that I can't remember. I keep meaning to scan it and PDF it and upload it to here.
