Well, when I do get a winter beater thats what I'm looking at. Most likely going to be a Loyale wagon.

Yet another domestic lover to a fault-wait, we already had this argument in another thread. Sorry.

Nice mines a sedan, but my friend just got a turbo wagon. Amazing the amount of cargo room in one of those babies

What baffles me, is the fact that one who doesn't own an SVX, has nothing good to say about the SVX, and would rather own a cavalier than an SVX, is still posting on these boards. If you don't like them that much then don't try to preach your domestic car views to people that could really give a rat's ass about domestic cars. Go find a GM or Ford forum.

<whispers>it sounds like she bought a beat up SVX. i would have unloaded your gf's car a long time ago. no wonder you are so bitter. i looked at two SVX's before i bought mine and passed on them. they were beat, owned by younger guys, and probably driven hard and barely maintained, if at all. they were cheap, but i'd probably end up paying more than the purchase price in repairs and maintenance catch-up. i was more interested in driving it than working on it constantly - i did that with the Lumina. the one i bought was meticulously maintained, and the owner had all receipts and records. my car is rock solid, even at speeds over 100mph (not that i would ever go that fast. ) there are people on here that have purchased SVX's with multiple owner histories for probably less than $3000, and now they are having their share of problems. SVX parts aren't cheap, but its not a frickin' Ferrari.

Also I have to mention that despite the GTP's shortcomings, and the problems with the SVX, they are still two of the greatest cars built in my mind. I have always loved Grand Prix's...since the beginning, and a few rides in the SVX made me a believer. See, unlike my girlfriend...i'm a good sport. |

The thing ya gotta remember is the Subaru hes lookin to get is nothing compared to the SVX in repair costs and the reliability of these cars is what built Subarus reputation. There's enough of them around that used parts can be found easily and with the option of 4wd they really make an excellent beater. Much more sensible option than a domestic or an other foreign beater. How long these vehicles last is unreal. Anyone who owns a car from the GL/Loyale family can back me up on this one.
