New baseline requirement for a really nice svx

All of you have ideas about parts, paint, mechanical stuff, level of cleanliness, or low mileage, no tall wing, etc., that an SVX must have as a baseline requirement for it to be considered a really nice car.

Cosmetically, I think any SVX without the cloud side skirts and some type of front spoiler just looks down right ugly.

Subaru should have done something like these from day one.

Motorsports is dropping the price of cloud side skirts to only $450 so run out and get your pair.

Re: New baseline requirement for a really nice svx

This is highly subjective, as are all of your comments.

Opinion is not fact.

Don't feed the trolls.

Re: New baseline requirement for a really nice svx

Hey wait a minute.

Can't we have a discussion here about a side skirt without a "feed the troll" label here.

I agree with one thing, saying "ugly" is strong and also not true cause all SVX'es are great. Please allow me to retract "ugly".

Wow that's actually kinda tough.. You could always do what the car club kids do around the mall where I live... You could get a wal'mart muffler and some fiberglass and ugly bits to attach to your talon with some tint and HID's and some huge subs PLUS underglow then when someone wants to race they act like it's a joke and drive off slooooooowly.. Makes them seem fast to idiots..

I'm all about performance.. I'd rather be fast then work on cosmetic stuff later.. Although I can't wait to get the dents fixed and repaint her..

By the way, anthony, I'm sure he was referring to what you we're saying..
