Check this out!
This actually might be old news, I don't keep up on these boards like I used to. But I was just browsing for something in the pictures on subarusvx.com and found this in the "other" section.
It's a sketch of an SVX with the one-off bumper that Steve made. The one that only a couple pictures exist of. In the sketch it is labled "S4-II, prototype (the 30th Tokyo Motor Show)". Interesting. ![]()

I've seen pics of that car, and for some reason Steve's bumper doesn't... have the look. Have no idea what it is, but the original bumper had better styling... actually, it might be that one bodyline that steve's lacks.

The creases on the top and bottom of the drawn bumper are a little more defined than the photos of Steve's bumper cover show. I've seen the covers in person, and I think they look very nice. They're not for me, but they definitely look good.

No, re read. I'm not referring to those drawings, I've seen pics of a REAL prototype SVX with that bumper, only NOT Steve's bumper. It was white. And it looked..eh.. slightly better.

![]() Thanks for the welcome back Nick! I've been pretty active in the Northwest forum setting up meets and stuff, but just haven't had the time to look around these other areas much. Miss all you guys though. ![]()

That bumper looks too much like the new SVT Cobra bumpers... I work next to a Ford dealer and I look at them all the time.... especially the bottom part with the fog lights...

The white SVX S4II prototype was shown at the 30th Tokyo Motor Show. It was a facelift for the then current JDM S4 model. However, not long after, Subaru ceased SVX production and the prototype was sold off to a Subaru employee.
