I decided to rejoin the forums after the near death of my 3rd SVX. I figured I'd better get my 97 LSi registered. I originally was a member a few months after these boards opened way back then under RRX. I used to own a teal 92 LSL that got totaled. Back then I remember my insurance was $512 a month due to my age and SVXs weren't that old then. I became a lurker after my 2nd SVX (93 anniversary) got totaled and my old login stopped working. I was starting to think that I have bad luck with these cars. Each time it was the other drivers fault.
Back in January, I hit a wheel that was just sitting in the middle of the highway. The wreck messed up my wheel, radiator, bumper, fender and various parts of the suspension. I slid on the bottom of the car a good 50 ft. Initially State Farm thought it might be a total loss, but the costs wound up being around 4k so they covered it. I am relieved that my car is fixed. It would have been a pain finding another SVX and spending thousands whipping it into shape again.

Re: New Old Member
Welcome back!
Do you remember what the last 3 numbers of the VIN on your 93 were? If it hasn't been registered, I would like to do so. The registration forum has all of the years there and you can register your current SVX as well. Thanks

Re: New Old Member
ensteele,
I was able to dig up the Vin numbers of my 92 and 93, so i'll get those registered. I already registered the 97 and made a donation the other day. That needs to be logged I think. 92snowmachine, That probably was me you saw around that area. I live in southeast Aurora, but usually venture Denver if i'm dong something.

Re: New Old Member
I didn't have either of those cars registered and was very happy to get the 93. I now have a total of 69 93s registered. Thank you.
