Hahahaha.... riiiight. Maybe the Russians would pay that, but not us. I got mine for just under $3k years and years ago. It's no $6k Kenny Bell, but it's a gem for it's rarity. Probably the only thing in my VX that I could sell for a profit right about now, heh.
Plus install? Was it really worth it?! Did it go 3K dollars faster? I just can't imagine it being that much of a difference. Especially now, I could get another VX for what it would cost to get a S/C and parts...
