Pardon my French but HELL YEAH IT IS!!!! Ive had mine at my local "every Wednesday" show a few times and the reaction is awesome, esspecially when the VX gets more attention then the ferraris and lambo's. The rich Ferrari guys don't like it because it's not a Ferrari but they dont count as much. I say do it!!!
Make it yours, but make it classy........ unless theres zombies.........thats when the gun rack goes in.
I've taken mine a few times...always well received by people and gets lots of comments...don't expect to win much if they give out awards or trophies...everyone seems to want to give it to the guy that has a Chevy or Ford that looks like the rest of the Chevy's and Fords...
Live, Love, Forgive and Never Give Up
The answer is ABSOLUTELY YES!
The last time I took my VX to Cars & Coffee it was a mess. The exterior was covered with road grime from driving in the rain (wow, that would have been a couple months ago) and the interior was coated with a heavy layer or dust from the landscapers at work blowing 100 lbs of grass clippings and dirt into the interior. I've been working on my house so much there was even a pile of trash behind the front seats, junk on the passenger seat and I had a raggedy sun visor in the windshield.
So... last month I showed up late and parked way back in the outskirts of the spectator parking area of the Cars & Coffee meet. Still, sure enough, a photo of my VX was taken and showed up on the website!
"Don't worry, be happy".
I go to local AWD events (DCAWD) with mine. Typically, they are swarmed with Subarus and Mitsus, but I like to leave my Subie at home and show up in the VX. It's different and gets more attention. Doesn't "blend in". Always a good showstopper since it is still surprising how many people STILL have never seen one.

I took my beat up old trail VX to a truck show a local country station put on and everyone, including the DJ running the show, loved it.

I've had mine covered in stinky river mud before and cruised to a car show that had about 30 other cars there. It got a fairly good share of attention. No awards at that one just a cruise in kinda show. I have seen peoples on here take awards home though.
