Gold Coast Sighting

Well I know there are at least 6 SVX's in my area (Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia) because the local Subaru dealership services about that many.

So I don't often see another SVX, but today I spotted an immaculate bright red SVX. It was parked - so I peeked in through the window and it has only done 78,000 (Klm) which is about 50k miles. The number plate was "SVX 66".

As I approached it, I initially thought it was a Ferrari or Maserati - it was that tpe of red. Shame on me .

Cheers,
Pete.

p.s. it was parked next to a convertible Porsche but the SVX still really "stood out ".

Hi

Please please tell me you left a note....or chased him for 14km through traffic till he pulled over on a main road thinking you were an undercover cop (James looks at ground, shuffles feet....)

I think I have a picture of that car - from memory his name was TopTanks on the old *that which must not be named* Yahoo site (the big one).

I tried emailing hima few times but never heard back.

6 of them....well, get them here!!! *joking*

I am waiting for the day that I will be in my SVX and see another one that I don't know.....every time it happens I am in the Camry Chase Car

Bah!

Maserati and you even own an SVX...hang your head in shame, no excuses!!

*grin*

James

I've told this story before, but it's worthy of a repeat.
Back in the summer of '01 ( ), I was at my sister's house in Daytona Beach. I was parked between her immaculate white '98 911S, and her hub's beautiful white '01 Corvette convert. So the pizza delivery guy came in and says, "Whoa, way cool Subaru!"

I think I got more of a kick out of it than they did.
