Man, I'm sorry your SVX gave you so much trouble. I hope your WRX provides you with more reliable transportation.

You're going to stick around the site, right?

i traded the svx in for 4,500 with 104k on it and no AC "needed to be recharged" the rims and system and rotors went with the car,

im truly going to miss my svx
Man I had the feeling that was gonna happen after I saw you that last time on S.R. 50. Well, I'm happy for you and I hope I can sell mine off before it starts having multiple problems. One question though.... Are you still going to be a part of the SVX Saturday night Street-Crusing (if it happens)?

The next time you and I and Jean go out to dinner, there will be a different car in the picture! You had some great rims on that car, I sure remember that!
We have a local dealer who has been sitting on a beautiful blue EVO for several months....because he has a $10k markup on the thing! I am surprised that someone with the bucks to be "first on their block" hasn't flown in and bought it....but it will be a frosty day in hades when someone around here spends that kind of money for a $30k car. At another one of their dealerships near here, they have a similar markup on a Crossfire. I told the salesman flat out....that is a insult to your customers. Like the EVO, it is just sitting there....unsold.
Best of luck with your new WRX!
Don and Jean

Funny you should say that... When I bought my SVX, it was a trade in at the local KIA dealership.

Smile 27th Meet

Sounds good..... I hope there will be more than 2 SVX's there. We did have a definite count of 3 before, but I hope to knock some heads off with a line of SVX's. That would be great to see the expressions on everyone's faces.

Nice Job on the WRX. I hope your SVX got a good home.

The SRT-4s not a bad car. It's a little slower, less safe and less reliable, but I don't mind it. One of the only 4-bangers I would consider buying.

If you had gone with the EVO I would have personally hunted you down and stabbed a for through your eye and slashed you tires. But you didn't so I won't.


SUBARU all the way.
