Bought SVX new off the dealer floor in March 1994 (8.5+ years ago). The salesman almost fainted when I said OK, the other salesmen still probably sing praises to his name.

Other iron:

1970 Plymouth Roadrunner
1974 Pontiac LeMans
1978 Buick Skyhawk
1980 Triumph Spitfire
1984 Isuzu P'up
1986 Dodge Shelby Charger - junk
1988 Isuzu Impulse
1991 Isuzu Rodeo
1994 Subaru SVX
2000 Toyota Tacoma - supercharged
2000 Kawasaki KLR 650 - falls on me at stop signs

If I'd just kept my Impulse and saved all that money....... Naaa, just would have lost it all this year anyway and wouldn't have had all that fun.

That would make it two reasons I'm glad you bought an SVX. (Come to Florida, it's warm here)

Aredub,

Which one are you?

Doug,

I noticed you in the background. You are the VP.
Did anyone else in the club notice that we never see a picture of Randy anymore without Doug being in it somewhere?
Do you work the strings like Mr Cheyney does with G.W.

You know Randy can't tie his shoes without a little coaching I provide him with that little extra support to get through each day.

No one knows the work I do behind the scenes to keep Randy looking professional. It's much more than a full time job

Name Amanda

Age 23

I live in Pittsburgh, Pa

I had my trusty 91 Toyota Camry.....they're kinda like an energizer bunny they keep going and going

I have had "Subaru Sally" for 1.5 years

What I want to own at some point in my life is
2000 BMW 740IL
mid 70's Rolls Royce
1970 superbird (it has to be canary yellow)
I have to have a big old truck--I don't really care what kind just as long as it says "get the h##l out of my way"
and of course another SVX


I work for a small car dealership that sells cars exclusively on eBay. If you want to check us out search by seller and type in imotors.

Here is a pic that my boss took of me while I was trying to work

I'm the old balding idiot with the wrench. The pic, by the way, was taken by the lovely and talented Vivian (vzSvx).

Yes, Doug works the antenna circuit while I do o-rings. Of course, in case of crises, Doug has to go to the bunker.
