Bulletproof SVX?
I was filling up my car the other morning and i went in to pre-pay. The cashier asked me if my windows were bulletproof. Apperantly her boyfriend had told her that SVXs have the windows like they do because they're bulletproof. "Hell yeah," I told her. Just thought that was interesting, never heard that before.

There are companies that will turn your car into a light armored vehicle for 20 grand. They put these cloth sheets called Impack that will make your car bulletproof. They also change out your windshield and windows as well as put in run flats. There was a special on the travel channel

Of course it adds some weight so you'll have to take that into consideration when it comes to out-manuevering the bad guy. Oh and of course since it is heavier it is also slower meaning it may be bulletproof but won't save you when they catch up in their H2 and run your A$$ of the road.

Bot atleast you'll have AWD!!! If I didn't care about my SVX I'd go down a gravel road if bad guys where chasing me... Whooo hooo!!!!! Look out Colin McRea!!!!! I love gravel rallying, that's all we would do for fun in Australia.... My dad had an old Suby that he let me drive.... The weekends my buddies turned the dirt woads around the small town that I lived in (Willunga) into our own Rally corses!!!!! What a Blast..... I never wrecked yet, maybe I should contact Subaru and try to get in on thier Rally Program!!!

SVX has too many curved windows. That replacement can never happen because of that. Also, they put in a second alternator as well as a second battery. I can think of a room in the trunk for the second battery but do we even have room for a second alternator? L

Bulletproof...I have to say that's the first time I've heard that one. But I bet it's not the last time we'll be asked about it. Look at the '30 extra hp' BS.
