So I just moved to SF from SE Michigan. Its rare that I ever see an SVT like mine roaming around these streets. Then, yesterday, around 7 pm, as I was waiting for the bus, I saw an SVT go screaming by. Are there lots of SVT owners in this area?

I usually see one every couple days in the South Bay. I'm going to start carrying paper and pen from now on so I can let these folks know about the Contour.org site.
If you see a dark grey '95 with no door ding strips or badges, it's me!

Might have been me what color was it?
I have also seen a few SVT. I saw a black bone stock one right by PAC Bell park and one on the 101(which I have seen twice now) traveling north from San Jose. I have seen an SE turned SVT(i think) parked by the Metreon. Let me know I am new here just moved from L.A. where SVT's were not so rare.

If I remember correctly, someone in SF did convert a 98 SE to all the SVT valances. Traded Al Mirko for his from his racer. Al needed the extra ground clearence. The guy used to be on the list but haven't heard from him lately. SEVT was his alias.

Well now we have almost the same user name, in addition to both of us being in Palo Alto, so people will REALLY get us confused! Not sure if I've seen you or not. I'll keep my eye out. Did you buy from Varsity? Have you seen their R model on display? Just got my car back from Varsity this a.m. (the whole service dept knows me by name, unfortunately)
