Re: SVX just not impressing people anymore?

I didn't read this whole thread but I read enough to but in.

I love my svx... It has a rough paint job (az sun eats red) and a mismatched bumper that j's teal. I get looks and compliments quit often. Women these days don't really car what you drive unless it's a civic/integra/crx ect pos with ****ty exhaust ect. The svx is a beautiful classic car that I love to drive (despite trans and fuel pump) despite what women think. I do know girls love big trucks tho... I had one.

Point is, as ppl stated before, if you're trying to impress women with your car yiu are Goin about it the wrong way.

Re: SVX just not impressing people anymore?

Our local Walgreens pharmacy (the one closest to my house, with a CVS across the street ) was sponsoring a car wash for cancer research so, I stopped by to get all the pollen washed off the car. I have never had so many comments starting with how low it was and easy to clean, to a cool sports car, to the windows, asking if it was new, is it AWD like other Subarus (looks like a RWD car). I left with every one waving. They couldn't believe it was 20 years old. An uplifting experience for me, had trouble getting my head through through the door. And, yes, I gave them a little bit more for the wheel detailing and drying, not done for other customers.

It seems like when it is really looked at, like at a car wash or car get togetherc people see it for what it is. A unique sports car or Grand Touring car that looks like it could be new. The real eye opener is that is is 20 years old.
