Is that a Subaru?

Why wouldn't there be a similar one on your side of the country?  :shruggy:

they are getting fairly rare, the dogged out ones are around, but a nice maintained example is getting pretty hard to find..
i've passed on a few allready, and now i feel impulsive and want that particular one. seems better maintained than most.

Dave,

It could be close to me depending on what part of CT you're talking about. The western border is a 35 minute ride, but the eastern part is a few hours. Other than the basics, I wouldn't have a clue as to what to look for on that model as a problem area. Also, it's dark here before I leave work, so a weekend would be best to see it in daylight. If you're serious & nobody is closer to it, I could try to look at it if it isn't too far away.

Can't you get some cortisone creme to help with the itch until one near you turns up?  :D

I did the math, one way on expedia.  a flight from SFO to MKE(wisc) would be under $150.00 numerous carriers.  That was leaving on the 31st Jan on a Wednesday.

I think it would be cheaper to do what PocketThunder suggested.  Drive it home.

:iagree:

One thing I never understood about the styling on those lumps...what's with the 1/2 side windows? :ahum:
Whatever styling exercise they were going for there...



I'd rather have the '08 Ferd in the other thread. :sick:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

actually i have followed the design since the first concept SVX in '91.
later they made a station wagon version too..
the designer is G.G. perhaps you've heard of him did the Delorian among other famous designs...
while some of the Japanese  went the luxury route. Aura, Infinity, Lexus etc... Subaru went after the Audi quatro...
mitsu 3000 and steath with this design...
it's known as the Japanese Toronado among the SVX faithful...
I knew some wouldn't get it but that's ok...
built in low numbers it is a standout design and has loyal following...

I like it man... they were really cool when they first came out and they still have a pretty neat draw to them. Definitely not something you see everyday - the Subi H-6 engine is pretty good too, if it was maintained properly it should be good for many more miles.

I would much rather have a nice well maintained Chrysler Conquest/Mitsu Starion. Sorry, I don't share your excitement about that Subaru...

i appreciate the offer but it's in wisc. maybe Ghost?.. nah,.. I doubt it...
i think it would make a cool daily at the price it'll prolly bring.
it's not prohibitivly expensive and has some style and would make it to Tahoe in the snow.. or even back from Wisc at this time of yr.

I prefer the SVX over the WRX in looks, I sat in one new back in 91 just after test driving a dodge stealth r/t (non turbo) and the dealer was real motivated to move it, could have gotten it new for what i spent on my stealth turbo in 93, (got a 91 tt used).  I liked the svx's interior and performance, I just didn't like the side glass windows, and couldn't get over the fact that it was a suburu, even a nice suburu. 

That one looks nice and the price is very reasonable, but i would keep searching for a lower mileage car, they are still out there although i'll agree they are getting harder to find.  You should be able to find one with 60k on it still.   
69 RT/SE Y3 cream yellow w/tan vinyl top and black r/t stripe. non matching 440/375, 3:23, Column shift auto w/buddy seat, tan interior, am/fm w/fr to back fade, Now wears 17" magnum 500 rims and Nitto tires. Fresh repaint, new interior, new wheels and tires.
