Hey everyone. I'm new to this forum. Please excuse any typos, I'm writing this on my phone. I'm the seller of the VX. It's pretty cool it found its way on here!
I've got a buyer flying in to pick it up this week.
It's amazing the amount of attention I've received from my ebay listing. It's evenly split between praise and hate.
My brother and I have 3 really low mileage VX's. My brother found it back on March. When I saw it I had to have it. The reason I decided to sell it is because I imported a '89 BMW 320 Touring from Italy.
I get the vibe that most people here value their VX's for the mpg's. I value it because I have a pathological hatred of new cars. I think they are bloated, heavy, disconnected, and festooned unessesary driver aids and safety features. I like the VX because it is the best iteration on the Honda EG hatch. It offers a light, tossable, visceral, connected, and honest driving experience. With a little bit of skill it can out maneuver much more competent cars (I teach performance driving for the BMW club of America and hold a NASA racing license). The fact that it gets amazing gas mileage, even with me behind the wheel, is just icing on the cake.
I tried to market to someone who appreciate it for all of the reasons VX's are amazing. A completely stock one like this is crazy hard to find. It wasn't a quick flip either. I tried to be completely tranparent in the ad about buying it on eBay on March in my ad. After shipping, extensive PDR, tint removal, service, and selling fees I'm not making much. I cared more about finding someone who would appreciate and enjoy it.
It's really cool to see so many VX fans on here. Thanks for letting me be a part of the community.
