I wish my VX was yellow. I think people never see the Ebony because it blends in with other things and cars. Its been awhile since anyone said anything to me. But I do catch people looking when Im walking back to my car in a parking lot or walking away from it. One year down and I still love my VX.
Yeah, I'm glad I got the yellow one. At work we test new cars from other companies and one week I got the PTCruiser right as they were coming out. As I slowly drove thru down to gauge public reaction (I am a car designer so I care about this stuff) people were stopping eating, standing up, tapping others on the shoulder, pointing, yelling compliments etc. I wasn't too impressed with the car but the next week I got the VehiCROSS to test (this was before I got my own) and I thought the reaction would be even bigger. Well it was black and on the same route nobody noticed it at all. I couldn't beleive it. It was percieved as just another SUV. I didn't see one person even looking at all, and it was a pretty new vehicle at the time. Once I got mine I found out it was just the color, because after two years of owning it now I still drive thru down and people stop eating, stand up, tap others on the shoulder, point, yelling compliments (mostly) etc. I just love my yellow VX! When I drive it in the Woodward HotRod cruise here in Detroit it cracks me up to hear all the things the 'parade watchers' yell. Everything from 'WOW' to 'coolest car I've ever seen' to 'that thing is hideous' to 'buy American' to 'what the phuk' to 'what is it' to 'nice wheels'. I love to hear both the love it and hate it reactions!
