SVX Rarity
hey guys a guy here in Canton NC has a 94 SVX Green and I already have a 92 SVX White with Black top and I can't decide which one is the rarer of the two...and which one I should fix up first....what do you guys think the green one has a touring package.
thanks Joe

Don't know about the numbers, but the pearl is certainly the most distinctive of the two.
I'm sort-of in the same boat. Both of mine need paint and I'm leaning toward having the silver done first, but it's still in out-patient rehab, mechanically speaking, whereas the teal is pretty-much squared away in every respect except appearance. Decisions. dcb |

92 was one of the highest production years. I've seen alot of peralies, but only a couple greens. Both are rare, but neither are really considered collectors by anyone outside of our community.

The 1994 is Emerald Pearl, different from the other greens. Has a bit of a blue cast at some angles.

Cost
I don't like greens at all, but as to cost of painting it is definitely cheaper to paint a green than a pearlie.
The pearlies require an additional color layer of paint over all of the others, so paint costs much more. The paint alone for the pearl only (no black) costs nearly $1000 for quality paint. Now is you can find a good 94 pearlie it will be more of a collector than the green or 92 pearlie. If you find a 95 pearlie---I want to see it (since they didn't make any US models). Lee
