Dude, people have gotten to the point where just posting your opinion initiates guarded reactions like this. MZ, you didn't offend me, and I wouldn't see how your post could offend anyone. hchen, do whatever you want to do. It's your VX, your money, your rep. My opinion should only weigh in as much as you want it to. If you want to spend $30k lowering your VX, shoehorning whatever engine you want in in, CF'ing the entire exterior, whatever... then my opinion obviously won't make a big impact to you. Same with you MZ... nothing I say about what I think you should or shouldn't do is meant to degrade you as a person.
Jeez... opinions are opinions. Maybe people need to watch HOW they state their opinions, but people also don't need to be so scared to state them as to think they are offending everyone by doing so.
