Hello everyone, I am the happy owner of a 99 Ironman as the name implies.
I first saw the VX at the movie theaters in the movie "mission to mars" oh so many years ago. I went home looked up the weird vehicle I saw on the big screen, fell in love with it and I decided then that I must own one.
I was 16 or 17 at that time so I wasn't going to be buying one any time soon. 7 years later (I bought it at the end of 07) I found my self in the position to finally buy the car of my dreams. I found mine for $9800 with 94k miles at a small dealership in New Braunfels, TX. I drove it once, and I was not disappointed in any way.
I look forward to spending time on this online VX community to talk more about our experiences with this amazing Vehicle�
As so many here might say, ''Welcome to the addiction!''
Peace.

HELLO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm James from London, UK. I bumped into a picture of a vehicross when looking for a v8 defender as a fun run around and weekend of roader, i must say i relly like it and i'm looking to buy one now.
I would worry about parts though as its only an import here, is it right that they are trooper based? and therfore parts are the same? what about running gear / electrical components? Also any thing to watch out for when looking at a second hand one, mileage etc?
Hope my sig is ok? i imported it from another forum i use, if its too big let me know!
Oh and i need to find somwhere to get a suspension lift and some BIG matt black wheels from as soon as i purchase one![]()
THanks !!

Hi James,
Welcome to the forum! If you use the search function, I think you will find all the info you need. There are a lot of things to look for when buying used, and the parts question always comes up as well.
It is a little on the big and obnoxious side...![]()
But cool, my brother has a Z.
You mean like these?

Good luck in your search for a VX!

Hay, nice Z crotchrocket. They�re pretty common here in the US, but I don�t think there�s very many in the UK. It look�s really good. You�re a perfect candidate for a VX if you can keep a 300ZX TT looking that awesome. You�re right the VX shares a lot of parts with the trooper, and it shares a designer with the 350Z.![]()
sorry... someone jumped on here while i was in the can
how do u delete posts?
