Attraction to people of all ages

Yesterday I was heading back to my car from the restaurant to see this lady peeking inside my car, she asked if it was mine and i said yes, then she began to ask about the windows and the automatic seatbelts, i've always been asked about the windows but never about the seatbelts, apparently she's never seen the car before. It was definitely a change of perspective.

Re: Attraction to people of all ages

I stopped at a furniture store on the weekend. When I was leaving all the salesmen ranging across the age spectrum were by the door. They asked if that was my car. Thought it was a new model but figured it couldn't be because of the haze on the headlights and grill. Also had a guy come over and strike up a conversation about the SVX while I was at the gas pump. Nice to have a unique car.

That is one of the things that I like best about our SVXs.

Re: Attraction to people of all ages

The last tuesday when i chage the clutch on the svx.
I have a place where the Porsche folks have there club meeting ang place there cars over the winter.

And one person came to me and start to ask about the car. He have Never seen one and i start to told him a little of the car and he was sock when i told him this is a Subaru and whit that kind of engine
And he think the car was verry nice and special. (good the car also have new fresh paint.)

So i am looking forword to get the car on the road agin hopeful about a week or two.
So i can get more questions.

Re: Attraction to people of all ages

I had a lady say to me .. That car is only a 1988 ? I said no, why do you say it that way? Well it looks like a brand new car. I said then where did you get the idea it was an 88? That is what the license plate said . ( I have vanity plates on the car )

When will Earl chime in? He must have a need to free up his garage space Here's an idea, AlcyoneSVX, you buy my other 92 & make Earl a very friendly offer that wouldn't reduce his stable
