Re: Your Likes & Dislikes about the SVX
Likes:
Interior build quality High speed stability Head-turning looks (I really like the pearl white color of mine, too.) Dislikes: Lack of trip computer Lack of a warning light to indicate low washer fluid I can't get comfortable in the seats Frumpy stance when at stock ride height. I also think subaru should have made the exhaust note more aggressive. It would have made the car more appealing.

Re: Your Likes & Dislikes about the SVX
Likes:
Exclusivity, as in rarely see another like it. Built like a tank; ask me about survivability in a crash. (But also adds to other owner's dislikes about weight.) Effortless acceleration at speed always impresses me. 50/50 split rear seat on later models. Winter/Summer wiper parking is innovative. Ability to accommodate rear seat passengers safely for short trips. Still beautiful to look at from most angles despite its age. Power mode, especially under switch control. Comments people make after really looking at the car for the first time make me proud to have such great taste. Dislikes: Lack of reasonably priced handling improvements. Susceptibility to being riced out due to low price on the used car market. Overall, I LOVE, not like mine. Glenn
