FYI

Happy New Year.
I apologize for the lengthy delay in getting this set up, but I think we’re now in a position to make the "visit" part of your request happen. We can discuss the scanning thing under separate cover, if that’s still a possibility.
As mentioned, we have changed our process for the visitors going down to the Vault. The best way to begin this process is to pick a date, determine how many in your group, and we can go from there. If there are more than 10 in your group, Citi will get you the group discount rate and we'll figure out the fee for the vault tour (usual rate is $25 + entrance) based upon your attendance - we just need to cover our costs, as I'm sure you understand.
Let us know which dates are possibilities and we'll check our calendar...
Thanks very much; we look forward to seeing you, soon.
Best regards,
Curator of the Collections
Petersen Automotive Museum

anyone ever asked if they could take it for a test drive?
-
Not anymore. The group did when it was still at Isuzu headquarters. You can search the forum for pics.
-
Please count me in for either date!

Hoping to get 2/16 confirmed soon.

Ok, we have 2/23/13 confirmed to see the VX-O2 at the Petersen Automotive Museum. I need RSVP's asap so that we can lock in that day and the rate. See below. Last count from here and Facebook was about 15 people. Hopefully we can have the same or more committed. Scanning might not be as easy and will have to be done at a different date. Hit me up ASAP. I suggest getting to the museum at 10AM. We can tour the museum and then at 1PM we go to the vault to end the day with the VX-O2. Please email me at baldwin.chiu@gmail.com

We could schedule your club for a Vault Tour on the following Saturday on February 23rd at either 1 pm. Since you’re bringing a minimum of 10 people, your club members will pay a reduced rate of $8 per person and an additional fee of $25 per person is required to access the Vault. IF you wish to scan the VX, a $500 fee is required and will need to schedule an appointment on a separate day. Thank you in advance.
I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
Best,
Education Program Scheduling Coordinator

Confirming. 1 person. 1 VX.

Damn
Baldwin, I'm so sorry that that date is a no-go for me. I will be out of town on the 23rd.
Having been at the last VX museum visit, I can tell you that being allowed in the vault is one of those "chances of a lifetime" happenings. To be allowed to come face to face with so many famous and unforgettable cars is breathtaking:yesb:.
Plus, getting together with other VXers is always worth the effort! :yeso: I will be sorry not to see my Vx friends again. :(

Confirmed for two people, 1 VX.

Count me in dude !!!! Confirming

Hi Baldwin,
Had a great time at your last Petersen meet. Put me down for 2 persons and 1 VX.

Looks like we have 9 confirmed so far. Hopefully we get at least 1 more...but would be great to get twice as many out here.
-
I'm seriously thinking about it
about 80% sure..with VX. TBD :thumbup:
-
maybe...
hey Baldwin...
It's a maybe for me now. Just landed a job, after 3.5 mos laid off, and I start on Monday. Depending on workload and schedule, we'll try to make it down there. But, it's too soon to tell. Definitely would like to meet and see new and old faces again!
I was one of the few fortunate ones who had the chance to drive the O2 around their parking lot during the first Isuzu VX corp. meeting. Those on the fence about attending, do so as it's a once in a lifetime op. to check out the O2 in person up close! Thanks for putting this all together! rudy

Baldwin, you are one enthusiastic dude. I salute you! Wish I lived near LA.
ITAL Design of Italy actually designed/built the VX-O2. Are you really able to import those folks? Just curious? Thx
