One of our favorite Subarus is the Subaru SVX. Unfortunately the strange, automatic only, window-within-a-window, gas hungry coupe never caught on, and sales flopped. We love it for its unique styling and unusual six cylinder boxer engine. We have dreams to turn one into a rally car for our company!
The Subaru Alcyone SVX, or simply the SVX is a front engine all wheel drive coupe made by Subaru in 1991. The SVX used a new 3.3 liter six cylinder engine named the EG33. Subaru had never had a six cylinder engine before the SVX, and wouldn’t use one again until the release of the Subaru Tribeca in 2008. Subaru never offered the SVX with a manual transmission, because at the time of its release Subaru’s manual transmission couldn’t handle the power of the new six cylinder engine.
