1992 Subaru SVX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Operated in the NW. High speed winter driving in volcanic cinders plugged radiator and A/C condensor and forced repaint. Not cars fault. Rotors need frequent turning/replacement due to little engine drag from transmission.
General comments?
Boxer six is better than Porsche and handling w/awd is awesome, particularly on ice and snow. Luxury car finish and trim, Japanese quality and reliability - fast and economical to boot. Drawback: too few for aftermarket to make tuning gear. A few more than the 230 horses would be nice.
