Re: Great Looking SVX

Re: Great Looking SVX

Before I went to the eBay site I said to myself . I would love to find a right hand drive 5 speed. OOOPS and there it is. Beautiful car, too expensive for my wallet. Well , not if I could get it home without the wife seeing it. I think she would think it was a little fishy when she saw the wheel was on the wrong side of the car when I picked her up. Shipping to the states would bring the price up to the $ 14,000 mark.

Re: Great Looking SVX

These are the same ones from Taiwan which had fitment problems and needed remachining to get them to fit properly.

As far as I know, no one who bought into this deal has installed them and reported their findings.

Re: Great Looking SVX

That's 93tzlegacy's SVX. And just a few months ago he was excited about making the cover of Mighty Car Mods magazine.
Wonder what's possessed him to sell it...

Re: Great Looking SVX

Here's his for sale thread: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=60855

He's offering it for $10000 here, which is a steal.

I was hoping to buy it if I got the better paying job I was going for. Just wish I was in the financial position to go for it.
