Lightbulb The Coolest Sighting ;)

So ... I'm arriving at Starbucks after work to discover an impeccable dark teal SVX parked right outside! Of course I pull in right next to it, get a coffee and sit outside waiting for the owner to show up. There were a bunch of people so I didn’t want to go around asking. I started talking on the phone and an hour passed – no sign of the owner yet… Most people had left already so I decided I should go inside and figure out who drives this nice machine outside! There were 5-6 FINE! Chicks hanging out so I was secretly hoping it would one of them so I can go upthere and BS! C'mon! What's better, you guys outhere, then a chick that LOVES CARS (and especially yours!) .... but I decided to try out this old couple first. I went there and asked the gentleman, who must have been in his late 60’s or even early 70’s.:
“Excuse me Sir, are you the driver of this fine SVX parked outside?” At this very moment the lady accompanying him (around the same age) JUMPED from her chair and said: “I am! What happened!” I introduced myself and told her about the club and so on… “Oh, I know”, she said: “ They only made 14,000 of those wonderful cars! They are the best car I have ever driven “…. And check out what her next words were: “When they stopped making them in ’97, I personally drove to Carter Subaru and told them THEY WERE MAKING A HUGE MISTAKE!!” heheheh That cracked me up. What a cool lady! I hope she visits us on-line some time!

-Nick

Yeah, that ain't goin real well, either. Yesterday, I decided to go down to my cousins camp to take some pictures of my SVX for the calendar. The sunset on the lake is beautiful, so I thought I'd try to get some daytime pics too. But, I apparently cracked my self in the head with a rock a few too many times before I started snapping away. Observe.

Not a pretty sight, huh? The worst part is that the sun wasn't right, so most of the pictures sucked anyway.

Yeah, I know, I know. I pushed it just a little too far to get some good pics. It was okay when I backed it onto the beach.

I just wasn't thinking about how much more the front weighs. Idiot.

I think you just played in the same spot to much, and then got that gut wrenching feeling of tires loosing traction.
