    Also, don't expect great gas mileage. Most get 15-18mpg on occasion if the stars, planet and moon are aligned just right you may see 20

    Here's a really detailed questionnaire several of us put together a while back to help potential buyers. It covers some very VX specific isssues.

    I second the gas mileage comment. While mine does have oversized tires, an aftermarket intake and exhaust, a 4 inch lift, and a roof rack (which is not helping me aerodynamically), the fuel economy is startlingly horrible. I'm averaging around 10 miles per gallon around town.. I also have a hard time keeping my foot out of it.. Even so, I love my VX. I've had it a little over a month and have decided it is my favorite car I've ever owned. It's just plain cool and unique. I feel privileged driving it around.
