    Well i think the look of the vx makes up for the little tink sound when opening the hood,the vx is too cool for people to care about the sound of ur hood popping open.

    Try adjusting the rubber snubbers at the hood corners as this controls the amount of tension on the hood when the you pop the release, which has a lot to do whether it's a "twang" or "thud".

    I agree, just today I was at a stop light, and I hear a guy yelling "Hey! Hey!" to get my attention. He is next to me in a GIANT duelly Dodge Ram pickup. He was like, "what is that?". I told him, and he said, "Wow that is cool!"

    The VX holds on its own!

    My hood latch doesn't make any noise normally, so that isn't the issue, just when I open it the hood it sounds like someone is farting into a big brass gong. I will try adjusting the rubber pieces at the hood corners, and hopefully it will go away.
