    Wheels definitely not 99...99s did not have chrome wheels.

    they don't look like chrome to me either, but the structure looks "more" like 99s, at least to me. Pic is definitely 'shopped, so hard to say.

    I never meant to imply that I thought any part of that VX was JDM...and if you will take the time to re-read my post, you'll see I didn't.

    Except the headlights...for whatever reason, they just don't look right...to ME

    The whole pic is stretched. Fisheye lens was used for this take.

    My votes go:

    '99 U.S. version Astral

    '99 16-inch rims (sidewalls look too tall for those to be 18's)

    Stock (non-JDM) headlights with horn-lights illuminated.

    Wow that article is horrible. I'm embarrassed to have the VT featured alongside half of those pieces of ****e especially since it barely mentions what an amazing vehicle it is amid the digs about the pathetic sales dragging the company under. Bleah
