Holy **** these cars were expensive.

Ever wonder just how much that car of yours was once worth? Here are the original purchase prices of the various models and years of the SVX, and the prices adjusted for inflation to the equivalent 2008 dollar figure.

Some highlights:

Cheapest SVX (both off the lot and adjusted): 1994 L FWD: Sold for $24,345 in 94, equivalent to $34,900 today.

Most expensive SVX (sticker price): 1997 LSi: $36,740

Most expensive SVX (in todays dollars): The 1993 25th Anniversary Edition: $34,445 in 1993, equal to $50,600 today!

1992 LS: $24,445; $37,000
1992 LS-L: $28,000; $42,400

Since the 93's were unchanged from 92 (except the addition of the Anniversary Edition), I used the same prices.

1993 LS: $24,445; $35,900
1993 LS-L: $28,000; $41,200
1993 25th AE: $34,445; $50,600

1994 L FWD: $24,345; $34,900
1994 LS FWD: $28,995; $41,600
1994 LSi AWD: $34,295; $49,200

1995 L FWD: $26,800; $37,400
1995 LS AWD: $28,300; $39,400
1995 LSi AWD: $34,350; $47,900

The Cars 101 site does not show any purchase price information for the 1996 model year.

1997 L AWD: $31,120; $41,200
1997 LSi AWD: $36,740; $48,600

So how much would Earl's fleet be worth in the showroom?

One pretty penny.
That's one of the reasons why they weren't very good sellers.

[bheinen74]

more expensive than even the Tribeca or STi

Used to be? They still are! (you know, maintenance wise... )

[subbieatnz]

NZ new SVXs was sold new for about the 110,000 to 116,000 dollar mark

[BRADY]

I have the original purchase receipt for my SVX.

In September 1992, my Australian SVX sold new for $91,500 AU. That is why Subaru sold only 250 SVX in Australia.

To put that in perspective, the average house in Australia in 1992 cost $220,000.

How was that possible? Less then half the price of a house? Seriously what type house, a shack? I love them don't get me wrong, but for half a house we can buy a Lambo or Ferrari (I would still have SVX). How much does the average one run now, knowing how rare they are?

[subbieatnz]

our house in nz was worth around the 160,000 NZ about 1992. aerage income here was about 30,000 to 40,000.
cost of buying an SVX now in NZ is any where from 1000 to 7000.
The ones i see up for sale at over 5k do not sell

Not to rain on the parade, but there is no such thing as a '93 LS/LS-L model.

They all were Anniversary models.

That is interesting to see the difference in prices though! We keep some expensive cars in our company!

So all 3800+ SVXii sold in 93 were identical? All were red anniversary editions?

The 3800 is spill over from '92s that didn't get sold in 1992.
