Whoop me in my own car- 5 spd Subaru SVX

EDIT: Back on EBay Link to EBay relisting

This is my car- it is not a project, it's ready to roll (though it isn't perfect), and it's worth a lot more than $2011. I'll miss it, but it is time.

Ebay Listing for 5 spd SVX

It is currently under $2011. Although the buy it now is way over the limit, I'm gonna sell regardless of what it brings.

I know a lot of you love these cars, and this is a good one. I'd like to see it go to a good home.

If you can negotiate a deal with me that would let you bring it to the Challenge, there is no question you will whoop my butt with my own car. A lot of other people as well.

I'd like a quick sale. I'd like to not put up with Ebay's shenanigans. If you are serious, make me an offer. I might bite. I won't be insulted, but I might say no.

There's a couple of things on my radar I might consider as trades with plus or minus cash: TDI, F-250 diesel, MINI, BMW wagon, Volvo wagon. Don't need any projects.

I am VERY capable of a creative approach to this one.

PM sent back.

Don't be scared by the "buy it now" price. It's probably a wishful thinking number.

I'll sell it for Challenge prices if there appears to be no serious activity on fleabay (even though I've got more than that in the suspension and after market parts). I'd rather see it go it a GRMer.

So much want! If I hadn't just bought the E36 I'd be on my way, seems only fair I should come to the challenge in your car

Hmmm... wanna swap an E36 for an SVX, just so you can drive my car and we can complete the circle of life?

Right now it's tempting as I go through the sorting out process and deferred maintenance, but seeing as its an M3 'vert I might be a bit upside down on that one, and take a butt kickin' from the wife.

Where did Morbid's post go??

Paul i think i'm out. Ex-owner of the MX6 is fighting some severe sticker shock from the fact that i'm asking 10x the price he sold the car for back in 2007.

I'm going to throw it up for sale on mx6.com to see if anyone has money right now for it, but i doubt it.

Sadface.

Don't want a 93 Chevy quad cab 1 ton Dually do ya?? :)

Gas or diesel?

Gas, 454, with hitch and trailer brake.

Ooooh-didn't think about trading tow vehicles! How about a 2003 Chevy Express 2500? 8 lug suspension, 6.0 Vortec, 4L80E trans, custom second row of seats from Chevy Truck so you can haul lots of stuff and 5 people. Rated to tow something like 10,000lbs. Heck, I had 1800lbs of scrap inside of it and it didn't flinch.

Ninja Edit: 7 1/2' of space Behind the second row i put in. Will hold a 4x8 sheet if your prop one end up a little.

That was me. I'm so used to being constantly logged in I didn't realize I was posting as her until after the crime had been committed. We had a very busy day and I haven't had a chance to get back on here until now.

Good luck with the sale and I hope, if it doesn't sell here, it goes to an enthusiast.

Didn't I see this car in a movie?. I'd love to help, but I'm working on thinning the herd...

Yep. This one was in a movie. I was the special effects coordinator for the movie "Fireproof", and cast my own car.

Damn, that 454 is looking amazing. Too bad I have nothing worth trading for it.

I was just about to post "Morbid didn't post" when I saw Jed's response.

Silly husband, not checking to see who's logged in (:p)

I really, really wish we were in a position to buy this...

I know. I really, really wish you were too.

I DID call you first.

I know sigh

The YouTube video I linked to through my EBay listing had 30 views when I found it.

It now has 224, and climbing.

I hope he appreciates my traffic!

So what you're saying is that your SVX could be taken off the line by a Sentra?

That's not a Sentra- It's a Kia!

And no, there's no chance the Kia could beat it off the line. It's a movie. You have to have a "willing suspension of disbelief"

He was like the 5th owner or something. I'm the 8th or 9th. He sold it for $300 to some guy with a blown turbo, blown headgasket, and warped head.

I bought it for $900, just tried to sell it to him for $3000. He can't fathom that it's not the same car he sold, by a LOOOONGGGG shot.
