Reeves Import Motorcars

Through the 1970’s and 80’s, Subaru had earned a reputation for building rugged, reliable, and lovably quirky cars. The availability of all-wheel drive made the cars especially popular in snowy climates. Subaru basically had one car, available in several styles: four door sedan, two door coupe, two door hatchback, four door wagon and the Brat pick-up.

When the XT went on sale in 1985, it was unlike any Subaru. A low, wedge-shaped body with an airy cabin boasted impressive aerodynamics. Interesting features like flush-mount door handles, a single windshield wiper, a unique cockpit inspired interior, pistol-grip shifter, and a pneumatic suspension with adjustable height further set the XT apart.

Over a seven year run, total production was just under 99,000 cars. In 1992, the XT was replaced by the larger, more sophisticated, but still unique SVX.
