Unfortunately he passed away suddenly and has been missed so much by the members of this Forum that knew him, respected him, and considered him their friend.

Hello everyone,
I took possesion of my VX a few months ago , I must say the attention it receives is pretty wild , I brought it up from Orlando Fl .. I'll just say I'm trying to find another lol. I'm originally from Madison wi, owned and operated a motorsport dealership, bad economy changed that! :(. I come from an extreme motorsport background , so 4x4 culture is new to me but .. Hey have to start somewhere , I'll try to get pics up Nice to meet you fellow VXers I look forward to learning from you , Eric
Welcome Eric.
Great that you found your way to the Forum. It's a great place for help and that hazing you mentioned...:bwgy::smilewink:bgwo::bgwb:
Eric is the new owner of Sylvia :)
Welcome to the obsession Eric! Make sure you take care of her, I hear her last owner cheated on her with a faster woman... ;) :p
Yeah we swapped girls, i needed a slower more faithfull woman, :)
Ya I have one of those already, i missed my fast and maneuverable one.
Tomato. TO-matO. :)
haha
Hi there!
I've been lurking here for a while as I pursued a worthy VX. Same story as many of you... I have admired and desired the VX from afar since it's concept days, but the price was a bit much. As prices declined (and engine reliability reports escalated) I decided to dip my toe in the waters, provided I could find one that had a reasonable chance of being around for a bit. After a few failed attempts (and at least one psycho seller on Craigslist) I finally stumbled across Mike down in Richmond, VA and bought his excellent '01 Dragon.
I'm thrilled to say the least.
I'm just going to treat it gingerly, monitor the oil consumption religiously and enjoy the living hell out of it.
Also have a Chrysler Crossfire. I'm thinking about cutting up both cars and making an amalgam car... The all-new Chrysuzu "VehiCROSSfire!" Ta-dum-dum! !!
LOL
Joe,
I'm right down the road from you at Ft Belvoir. Hope to meet up with you sometime. There's also an Ebony owner in Reston.
BTW, I was jonesin that Dragon. $$$ wouldn't cooperate though.
Welcome to that addiction.
Tom
Welcome aboard Joe! So I take it you originally were after a "1999,Silver,VX"?
Welcome Joe!
The more Dragon owners the better...:smilewink:bgwo::bgwb::bwgy:
Please check in over at the All Dragons Checkin Here thread and please post up some pics so all of the others can be GREEN with envy that you have the best color...:yeso::yesb::yesgray::yesy:
:yesb: Yup, the silver one was the one I originally locked in on, but the seller was, um.. difficult and pretty unrealistic. I needed to post a reply to a VX for sale here and just plugged in the info for that one. Soon as I figure out how to edit my profile, I will. :-)
Tom, I will keep a lookout for you. I had already decided on the vanity plates for it, but DMV falsely got my hopes up of getting them at the same time when I registered it (even after I warned them we have emissions requirements up here that might gum up the process. Sure enough, it did. :::sigh::: Another trip to the DMV. Oh, joy).
Thanks for the warm welcomes and always remember...
... "Here, There Be Dragons." :-)
