    Hey Ganzman...HOLD OUT!

    The 99 youre looking at with under 20k is certainly tempting...

    ...but "looks" are a large part of the VX addiction...so I'd say hold out...

    ...and get what ya really want.


    I'm in San Diego...so just down the road from you...I'll keep an eye out for ya.

    Wow !

    Only 20K on the clock ?
    That VX has to be the last 99 with less then 30K on the clock,for 12K is a steal.

    Look,personally i was after a black VX with black/grey interior with no more than 40,000 miles,unfortunetly i wasn't lucky,but when i found my silver-kaiser with red/black interior (yes,all the opposite way) with only 38K on the clock for just $ 9,999 i just had to forget about the color combo.

    Even though i didn't had my desired VX my thoughts were : " Hey gustavo.......it still a VX or no ? "

    I'll not encourage you to buy a VX that you don't like,but if i were you i'll drove that VX outter the dealer as soon as possible.

    I just want you to be on the possitive side of the street. IMO


    However... good luck !
    Dakar was just the begining.

    Hmmm. For me; when I was looking for a VX, it had to meet 5 criteria points:

    A: Must be a 2001 model (latest & greatest).
    B: Must be Proton Yellow (loud & proud).
    C: Must not have been in any kind of accident, period.
    D: Must have less than 80K miles (the average for an '01)
    E: Must be less than $11,000 (my personal ceiling cap).

    Luckily, I waited and I found one that met the criteria above on eBay and won it for only $7,800

    Cars designed by spreadsheets make sense. Cars designed by engineers make history.

    Your criteria are (were) pretty much the same as mine, though I'd go higher than $10K for the right black '00/'01 - the lower the mileage the better! Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

    Have you checked the autotrader.com site ?

    Also cars.com can pop up an VX in they list.

    Autoshopper.com is a good source too.

    But again ganz,that silver Vx with 20K for 12,000 is a very good deal

    However you must keep tight the quest for your dreamed Vx,the black & the proton VX's are the hardess VX to get your hands on.

    Ebay have listed about three VX for sale,right now there's foxfire VX (Very nice) with 79K from houston,also a ironman in PA with 90K for 9,000 in stock looking in conditions & a silver kaiser with 39K for 11,000 in michigan
