Another SVX horror story on ebay
Another example of extremely bad taste applied to a good design on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Subar...12182524QQrdZ1 He refers to it as a "show car", but check out that engine compartment. Gotta love the audio setup in the trunk. Think the trunklid speakers firing directly into the subs give you great clarity and separation? Neon in the center grille... lotsa crazy stuff. How much would YOU pay for a blue job like this? Its in Melrose, Minnesota and 12 people seem to want it  Should we email the winning bidder an invitation to join the network? .

too many speakers................check
white rims............................check type R floormats...................check windshield banner..................check vinyl graphics........................check painted interior bits................check stick on hood scoop...............check stick on hood vents............... check Yes folks, what we have here is a completely riced out svx. Send in the hit squad, Larry. We must stop this guy before he kills again. You'd think someone with that much time on their hands would also have time to properly secure the battery and change the brake fluid.

P&P engine on stock ECU... Hella HP gains! This is another reason I think Car buyers should have to fill out an application before purchasing to make sure the car will be well taken car of, like at the humain society.

Wonder how many more threads there will be for this car? We are up to 2 so far.
With the hood closed this would be an import show car. What's up with the driver's seat? It's all shrivelled up!

It has crappy seat clovers over the stock seats. The only reason they passenger side doesnt look equally bad is noone will ride in it with him.

He riced that thing out and didn't manage to even touch the shift knob!? Heh. Add to that he left the 4EAT in there.
Car wouldn't be so bad if it didn't have that God-Awful windshield sticker and lip. I think he got JDM headlamps though.

Ahhh... the illusive SVX Type R
I think the shift knob wasn't touched because there were no cool L shaped ones in the JC book of gawd!

And to think with all that money buying useless crap he could have gotten a 5-Speed + Turbo or S/C even... Ok maybe not both, but at least one of either... then just got some nice bolt-ons + wheels.

Why do some of these people have to mess with a perfectly good SVX?

Holy crap where do you put your luggage?
Nah, those are stock headlights. The rims would be nice if they weren't white. Man, i want to buy this car just so I can revert it to stock and give it some TLC.
