First Pics and first 200 Rview

I got my SVX a week or so ago and have been working nonstop: school, svx, work, sleep a little, repeat, etc. So I thought I'd share:

Overall very good, good get-up, slight problems (smoking etc.) decent on gas (vs. truck), a little loud, a little dirty, many new parts on the way. Attention getter. Guy at car wash said he had only seen 3, I am already friendly- first name friendly- with local Subaru Head Mechanic and Parts/Maintenance Manager. Oh well...

1: Engine
2: Clean and split loomed Engine
3: 3/4 View
4: Rear 3/4 View
5: What's in your tire area, I replaced my rusty spare with fix a flat, etc.

You could eat off of it, but it would dirty the engine.

tire shine does a pretty good job on all the plastic peices and hoses. You need to have the rst of the stuff clean for it to actually look nice like that though. Only clean engine bays I've seen had no engine in them at some point or another

Noticed in your signature you say it's an L. From the interior pics it looks like an LS. Did you mislabel that or did you do an interior swap?

There r only 2 models in 92 namely LS and LS-L(with touring package). From the pics it seems like it is a LS model(with rear spoiler which is an optional at tht time).
