Well first off, Happy fathers day to everyone who happens to be a dad and reading this.

So anyway i had to wake up real early today on my day off to get a Scandisk for a camra that a guy bought from me yesterday. Well turns out that i didnt have to go there after all. After i already was there

. Anyway on my way home i see this real nice WRX. Real clean too. It was the last gen with the circle headlights, Silver with gold 18" rims and the WRX bodykit from Subaru. As i looked at his car i noticed he was looking at mine...... With his jaw droped

God i love when people do that. Even at work i sometimes see people just starring at it and checkin out the windows. And i love when people ask me what kind of car it is and i tell em.
"Its a subaru."

< yea thats how i look like when i drive too.

Ahh c'mon thats gotta mean something. I had a Viper owner tell me "Your car looks cool, but i'd still kick your ass." But other than that i love most people's responses. Havent had any kids my age tell me anything yet. But most of the kids on block are WAY to in the Bling bling thing. One guy has 26" rims on a 86 Cutlas!

mmm, just wondering, can't the Ecu Tune stage III setup... kick that Viper's ass? or is it a long shot???

Maybe stealing the Impreza with the SVX engine, pulling it out and installing it again in our car, can it make a difference?

Yeah I love it when people tell me my car is cool, but then I realize for every one person who says they like it, there are 20 that tell me it is ugly...

all i get is looks and im jelious when the wifey drives the car. you dont have to street race for people to crash. just drive down the road and turn some heads at a steady cruise.

odepaj · #11 06-21-2005, 02:06 AM

i mostly get the "is that twin-turbo?". I was up at the Subaru lot awhile ago and some guy started asking the people who worked there if "that cool looking red car would be in next years line-up" they broke his heart when they told him it was a '95 and he had walked right past the owner. I had an Evo owner back down from a race (i wasnt gonna race him but he started reving his engine until he read the Subaru SVX side badges) because he had never heard of an SVX and thought it might be some kind of STi slayer.

You wanna see the kids over here, they think i took it out from the "Need 4 Speed" game and driving it on the road...

i get a lot of questions like: what is the max speed, turbo? nitros?.... and the question which teases me a lot... does it fly? (related to the high spoiler on the trunk)
As for my close friends, they are like: what's next?

intellibomb · #13 06-21-2005, 12:03 PM

a lotr of people say WTF IS THAT?

then they get into the nice psuedosuede interior and leather and then they ar5e all ooooooooooooh i like it,....

then i take them for a ride on the canyon roads around here

then they like it.

nothing like that flat 6 opening up wide at like 5000 RPMS and getting all 4 spinning around a corner..... then they either hate it or love it

To answer that particular question NO! He has a Viper GTS. But then again the Viper GTS rivals the Supra turbo... And if im not mistaken the Supra
rivals the SVX. And the SVX rivals 300ZX turbo I remember i saw an article about it in Car and Driver. So maby its not such a long shot after all

you cannot rival a naturally aspirated car with a turbo car. in my opinion, in terms of power, the SVX should rival the Non turbo 3000GT. 300ZX and the Supra.
concerning the Viper GTS, i guess this car has a V10 developing around 500HP ? (i dunno exactly how much, but somewhere b/w 400 and 550?), as for our SVX, it is an H-6 but with the Stage III Ecutune setup, i guess it must reach that level of performance...
