1997 SVX Owners manual – Showroom perfect

I have an absolutely pristine manual and leather case and pen set for the 1997 SVX.
Includes all relevant documents in original, clean form.

It even has the coveted SVX logoed Pen.

When I got my SVX back in ’97, the dealer could not find the Manual in the car (it’s usually in the special drawer under the passenger seat), so they ordered me a new one.
We’ll, I found the one under the seat the day after I picked up the new one, because the manual told me about the drawer under the seat

Therefore, the new manual got placed on a cabinet shelf, and I totally forgot about it until I just found it.

Looking around, others are selling the exact same thing for $120, but I’ll part with mine for $99 + actual shipping to you. Estimate around $10 or so for Priority mail.

I’m in no rush (obviously), so no low-ball offers please.

PM me if interested.

Here are some images of the Set:

The leather covered binder




The inside of the binder showing books and pen



Closeup of the manual spine and pen


The full set of manuals and documents included in this set



While I sold my SVX back in 2002, I still keep the flame on with this info on my personal site.

Re: 1997 SVX Owners manual – Showroom perfect

Where have you been looking around? I can buy the same set you have brand new as well from the dealer for around $25. Most manuals that I have see for sale go for around $15 to $25 depending on the year and condition. I'm not trying to burst your bubble, but just giving you the facts. Good luck.

Do you have the VIN from the car you sold? I have been trying to get all of the SVXes that I can listed. Thanks

What Earl said, plus you are only dealing with a total 97 population of 700 vehicles and for one--I have the same things already. Not a whole lot of demand for this.

Yes, and every one got one when they bought the car. I would offer you 25 including shipping, but that is the max I would pay.

Re: 1997 SVX Owners manual – Showroom perfect

25 bucks eh? I should have my parts guy check for me tomorrow, as my SVX has a 1994 manual in it, and I don't think I have the leather cover thing.

Looked on FleBay, where the only other complete, brand new sets seem to be going for around that, such as this one.

For that amount, it seemed worth the effort to take pics and post. Much less than that, and I’d keep it as a nice memento of a well-loved car. The pen alone is worth it.

I'll PM you my VIN when I have minute to pull up the file.

I went ahead and purchased a 1 new Owner's Information Kit for each year SVX, sans 1992, as they were no longer available, just in case.

Yeah I just tried getting one for mine I'm tempted to order a 1993 one since it's close enough.. I'd just like to have the complete kit.

Re: 1997 SVX Owners manual – Showroom perfect

SubaruParts.com has the full owner information kit for a 1997 SVX for $13.97. It's part number MSA5M9703K. I just ordered one. With shipping and tax, my total was about $25. I'll let you know if it includes the pen....

Re: 1997 SVX Owners manual – Showroom perfect

I thought i'd bring this back as I ordered a 1994 owners manual from work and there were more than 15 left for that year at least.
