I remember the original TV ad on the Bonnieville salt flats, lol. It didnt really showcase the VX very well. I saw one on a car lot around 2001 and wanted it. I thought they wanted too much for it and passed it up. Occasionally I would see one on the road and knew I would get one someday. I found two online within 50 miles of me in 2005 on the same car lot. One was Astral Grey but I wanted a red and black interior. I bought the Ironman Edition for that reason and because there were only between 400 and 500 sold in the U.S. and thought that would have some resale value some day. It had a lot of rattles which I traced down and smothered. I am the third owner. The car was orignally delivered to a buyer in Troy, Michigan. From there it went to a second owner in Texas and finally to me in California. The underside looks a little grungy from the winters in Michigan, but its only superficial and tolerable. It is after all being used as an off/on-road vehicle as intended. Other than that its been a great little driver.
