Should I sell my SVXi?
I dunno if I want to put up with them anymore. Just starting to lose the love i guess. It is either sell them both or keep them both and Stage3ify the silver. Just been spending way toooooo much time on these cars and catching a lot of heat from it. What do you guys think? Thought maybe I could catch some sound advice

All things in moderation. Take a little break from them but don't turn your back on them.

You are one hell of a good mechanic but even the best mechanic knows that you need to put the tools down once in awhile. When you were at the Reading meet did you even have fun? I can't see how if you did. I am assuming that the woman in your life is telling you this... if so slow down on the cars and put a little more time toward her.
Realistically you have to dertimine what you want...and then go for it. As for the SVXi..it isn't like they are total POS's so maintain them and enjoy them. (don't sell the svxi)

I would suggest to take a break. It seems that these cars draw you in and it is easy to spend way too much time with or on them. If you sell them right now, you will regret it in the near future. I would say take a break and enjoy them instead of working on them all of the time. Take a step back and then evaluate the situation again if you need to.

I am also with others... just take a break from them and stop working on them untill you find/feel working on them again. Thats a better idea than getting rid of them. But at the end its all up to you and hope you will decide on the better one.

Like others say, I'll suggest to take a break/keep SVX and come back later. We are all humans, we get bored from something sometimes, but someday later you'll love them again...

Tom, if your luck is ANYTHING like mine at all, the minute you sell, someone will determine that the SVX is an exceptionally rare and collectable car and will instantly become worth a fortune. However, if you decide to keep it and wait for this to happen, it never will and none of the rest of us will become instantly rich because of YOU. (just kidding)
You're going to get about $2500 out of it. You've probably got more into it than that. If you can afford to, let it sit and walk away for a while. Tom, if it's not the SVX that you're throwing money and time into it's just going to be something else. So, what do you like better? I thought about selling mine and freakishly, the wife told me NO. For what we paid for it, it's a nice toy out in the yard. It looks good, sounds good, (got the SS exhaust) and not everybody and their brother has one. Best of luck with your decision. |

Yeah, take a breather. Maybe keep your favorite. You have so much knowledge and experience with this car it would be a shame to not use it. There are so many worse things to do with one's free time.

If you did sell your cars, what would you get instead? A newer Subaru or something completely different?
