Entertaining video. I have one of these and it was my daily driver for about 10 years I'm now restoring it. It's a great driving car. Some things you got wrong on the video:
The windows were not designed that way because they were trendy. They were designed that way for aerodynamics. At the time the SVX had the lowest drag coefficient of any production car.
SVX was designed as a 2+2 grand touring car, not a sports car or for competition. If you've ever driven one you'd know that eating up highway miles in comfort is where it excels.
SVX stands for "Safely Vehicle Experimental" So once again, this project was not aimed at competitive motorsport but as a competent road vehicle.
I'd say that this is one of Subaru's most misunderstood products. it's commercial failure had more to do with the high price point than anything else. It was a $36, 000 Subaru which was BMW money back then The brand didn't have the status to justify such an expensive car nor did it have the proper marketing to prepare the way for a new kind of Subaru. This was era of the Subaru GL wagon. The Impreza hadn't even been conceived Anyway I could go on for days about this car. I love mine It was so ambitious and while they made some mistakes when you find one in good condition and drive it you understand why it's special.

Literally just bought a svx last week. Dream car for sure!

The windows are actually great by design. Keep in mind this is a vehicle of it's time. There's zero cup holders but you get ash trays. In Japan it was common for the biusness man to smoke. The windows will pull smoke out of the cab at speed and keep rain out of the cab while still venting the cab. The biggest downside was the weight. Adds almost 600lbs to the car

there's a green manual swapped one with tesla wheels that shows up to meets in SoCal and i swear its honestly the coolest thing there

[TrillMurray]

This is the first svx video I've seen that features old svx media and visuals to accompany the telling of its history. Very well done and thank you!!

Good stuff man, I love seeing content about the SVX. It deserves more recognition in the car world. I'm glad you didn't shy away from criticizing it, it's a weird car lol. But it's a pretty cool weird car, and that's from somebody that owns one.

[sopadesopita]

LOVE the addition of sound clips at the end there plus mods. good editing!

[mono]

Mark you have some of my favorite car content, you're awesome dude

[kjgaming]

Giorgetto Guigiaro also designed the 1st generation Lexus GS, which is also a pretty weird design. The rear light kind of remind me of this car's lights.

Think they forgot about the SVX….what about the XT6 😅

"How could a flat 6 jdm sports car fail IN THE 90's!!!"
"Only available in automatic."

[mavericknizmo]

I won't ever stop thinking about this car all the dang time, man

[majorseventh]

The SVX (safety vehicle ten)( honoring Malcolm brickins SV1(safety vehicle one) and subaru's tenth vehicle version and to this day, way ahead of its time, Highly misunderstood and NOT a sports car and was never meant to be..
Performance, Luxury, AWD, Semi Exotic, Coupe, that's it....looks good in any color, going any direction, narrator hasn't a clue.

Awesome that you are actually making a vid about this car I literally just bought one like 3 days ago!

[a_mendez]

I was just searching this car up a few days ago trying to find out more about it’s weird design and conveniently this vid popped up on my recommended today

[blue_lancer_es]

🙄 Marcello Gandini designed the countach not Giorgueto

[borntokillzz]

Just had to sell mine recently :( wasn’t really in the best shape but boy do I miss this car. Had it in that emerald green colour too!

[whitechowder]

I daily drive an svx, I can confidently say the windows are kind of a pain in the ass.

[ReinDeBoer]

I think a deep dive on the Celica gt4 would be cool

1990'S car are way better looking than the 2000'S
