A 1992 Subaru SVX in a Denver self-service wrecking yard.
The first new Subarus sold in the United States were microscopic kei cars brought over by Malcolm Bricklin in 1968, and they were followed by slightly larger Leones a few years later. Bigger and better-equipped Leones followed during the 1980s, along with the sleek XT sports car. When the XT's successor appeared here for the 1992 model year, it was named the SVX and it looked wild! Today's Junkyard Gem is one of those first-year SVXs, found in a Colorado car graveyard.
At the time the SVX was designed, Subaru didn't have a manual transmission that could handle the 3.3's output, so every one of these cars came from the factory with a four-speed automatic transmission. The SVX was styled by Giorgetto Giugiaro, and it turned heads with this window-within-a-window side glass treatment.
