You're missing my point. There's no such thing as a Legacy that's as fast/nice/etc as an SVX, even if you put $9000 into it after the $1000 purchase price, or just buy one for $10,000.

You're not gonna find a Legacy on-par w/ the SVX in performance unless you're talking about a turbo one... and then you're gonna have to get an '05 LGT if you want it to be less of a maintenance nightmare than the SVX because making a EJ22T that fast means way more work/money than I've put into the SVX.

And when it's all said and done, you're still just driving a family sedan instead of a GT, which is why suggesting buying a Legacy over upgrading the SVX's brakes is a weird suggestion to begin with.
