Subaru SRX Concept (SVX concept car) info.??
When the original SVX concept was previewed at the various worldwide motor shows, it was called the SRX. I remember seeing this at the Auckland (New Zealand) motor show & instantly committed to one day buying this car (onto my second SVX now)
After the SVX production model hit the market, there was an outfit called SRX Concepts (if I remember correctly) which had a website & also did an aftermarket SRX body kit + other mods. I have Googled the Subaru SRX & it looks like SRX Concepts is gone & I can not find any original pictures of the SRX or reference to the aftermarket kit. Does this ring a bell with anybody & if so, is the SRX kit still made & who sells it? |

Todd,
Dayle has kits for sale like the Auckland concept in 1989 (I think I still have the original poster from the show in the attic!!). http://svx-motorsport-accessories.stores.yahoo.net/ I have bought a few things from him over the past 15 years that I have owned my car. Steve |

Hey dude
I think you got a bit muddled up. The concept was always called the SVX. It even shows it printed on the side of the SVX Subaru did make a Subaru Leone two door Hatch and that was called a SRX. Also the Non turbo verson of the WRX was also called the SRX. Heres some pics and info on the concept svx. http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=50988

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the reference to the aftermarket site. I remember the 1989 Auckland motor show very well. The SVX concept was a real stunner. Tis a pity that it was toned down. It would have been great if they had produced a top tier model exactly like the concept car. |

Thanks mate,
I indeed got it muddled up. The confusion point must have been around the now defunct SRX concepts website that used to specialise in after-market SVX parts. Thanks for clearing that up for me. Last edited by RedKiwiSVX; 06-19-2011 at 11:57 PM. |
