How many VXs are there?

[johnnyapollo]

Hey Anita,

I think the real question is how many were produced for the Japanese Market. Wish we could get some intel on that.

I too wish you had bought that pearl VX! Someone on our board certainly deserves it!

I'll see if I can find that out...

If I remember correctly from a past post there was only about 550 made for the Asian market. I'll have to search for that post.
Try this post from the old VMag forum VX Production #'s

Actually, I cant explain it. 8,000+ parts from a 6,000 part die? Must be a miracle! All I did was relay info from the guy who spent two years of his life designing the production model. But hey, he could be totally off. I guess this will be an eternal mystery.

Seriously, I'm curious (only slightly) why people seem to care much about this elusive number.

What? Are you talking about the total number produced? Why wouldn't you want to know that about the VX? Yeah, if you drove an F-150 you probably wouldn't care that you were driving # 1,560,000 out of 3,000,000 (or whatever). Were talking CHUMP change compared to that... jeez.

If he was the one responsible for the designing the cup holder then I think we have an explanation.
