SVX manga

Anyone seen this? Found it while browsing some JDM SVX sites. Obviously it's an Initial-D rip but an SVX+Manga=Cool!

BTW there are SVX's scattered throughout Initial-D (I've seen a silver one every now and then) but they're never raced.

That's really cool. Could you give us the link to the site from where you pulled the pictures?

Rob,

The interior on the RHD SVX is just a mirror image of our LHD models.

Oh, and that SVX manga is pretty sweet.

And the paragraph at the bottom of the page translates as;

"After this, the SVX driveshafts broke, the power steering became heavy, the key was stuck and the shift lever wouldn't move. Those who don't know the SVX is a Subaru find them uninteresting....those who do also think they are uninteretsing...."

I really like the last quote from the female passenger to the other driver.

"When you come to Gunma, don't mess with Subarus!"

Me too, man!

You're talking about the ones with buttons, right? For some reason I remember reading that those didn’t have airbags. I could be wrong, anyone know? Either way I want one. Oh, and the female passenger is actually the driver. (I think it's the wife of the guy who made the manga.)

The JDM wheel with the audio controls DOES NOT fit US models. (Been there, done that). The JDM airbag wheel is the same as the US model.

Thatfs too bad.

Speaking of steering wheels though... check this out, it's momo. I really like it, the whole interior for that matter. (and it even has cloth and the gray dash!)

The JDM wheel with the audio controls DOES NOT have an airbag. Just thought I would help Paddles clarify that.
