    Similarities to the VX

    My age may have the most to do with why I have never seen one before, but I can't help seeing a slight VX side profile in the late Honda Z600 coupe.

    There was one in the Jan. 12 edition of Automobile in the Upshift classifieds section with blacked out wheels/tires and side exhaust which made it look much meaner.

    I didn't know much of anything about this model until the article and am surely not trying to compare the VX to something inferior!

    Since I can not locate that picture, maybe this one:

    or better this

    Where I grew up we called this Honda the "scuba mask"...cuz the way the back window has such a prominent black rubber gasket. Anybody else hear of that nickname?

    I always get excited when I see the Hyaundai Santa Fe from a distance because I think it looks like a VX from the front a little bit. Just with the way the hood rises us right behind each of the headlights and such and having the grey plastic on the bottom half of its face. It nearly always tricks me from afar...

    X2. They drive great and like the VX... they are just ugly enough for me to want one.
