A quick gratuitous photo.
When I got home from work yesterday, I looked back at my SVX after parking on the street in front of my house and couldn't help but take a picture. I love this car! That is all.

Re: A quick gratuitous photo.
I occasionally get the urge to do that. I wish mine looked as good as yours.

That's the house across the street! I can't take credit for that house, or the perfect lawn! I don't have that kind of time!

Re: A quick gratuitous photo.
Thanks! I read and showed this to my (non car enthusiast) wife, and even she said it looks really good.
I live in hope of getting my pearlie on the road (and not upsetting my wife in doing so ). |

Re: A quick gratuitous photo.
Mazda RX-8 wheels. 18" with a perfect +55mm offset which fit the SVX without problems.
(which is the only redeeming value of that car) .

Re: A quick gratuitous photo.
Sean, this is true. Sitting in one in the showroom was as far as I got.
To me, sports cars have to have a certain curb appeal, as well as performance, and I just never warmed up to the 4 door styling. On the other hand, I have driven the third-generation RX-7 (1994) with the twin turbo setup many times and, despite its shortcomings, prefer it much better as a sports car. .
