Thoughts on the Subaru Alcyone/SVX? One being sold near me,

>Thoughts on the Subaru Alcyone/SVX?

subjectively I think theyre ugly as all hell and worse than something like a SC

objectively

Transmission is shit and youll want a cooler and/or replacement

auto only
weighed near as much as a Supra RZ

AUTO ONLY ON A TWENTY YEAR OLD CAR

Cool as hell, needs a trans cooler, don't buy it if you want something to modify.

>>15465227
What were they thinking with those windows?

>>15466248
exotic cars like the diablo or the DeLorean did that back in the day, so they did it to look cool.

i wouldn't give more than $800 for one

>>15465227
didn't Guigiaro design that?

Pretty sure I saw that somewhere...

Hell to work on and unreliable

>unreliable
Simply not true. Its actually one of the most reliable cars subaru made.
And yes ive driven and worked on many of them

wasnt that only a problem with the pre-93 ones? ive read that since 93, Subaru tinkered with the transmission problem. Something about the 93/94 models coming with some kit pre-installed from factory

Subjectively I think they are the most A E S T H E T I C cars you can buy in America.

Objectively they are autotragic only, aren't that fast, and heavy.

why'd they change the name anyway? Alcyone is a pretty schway name.

And SVX smudges the fact that it is basically just the second generation XT.

dubs of truth. it is. Which is a nice evolution since the XT was 80's as fuck
