until you get that SC.
Posted this yesterday on OT.
Pulled up next to a new Veu with the V6 at a stoplight. Thought I'd see if he could keep up. I gave up by the time I hit 35mph because he was about 4 car lengths in front of me!
Good Lord that was embarrassing. "At least my steering wheel was nice and warm! What do you say to that Mr. Vue!"

While I'm here:
My rearview mirror seems to be losing its auto-dimming feature on the bottom left corner. I haven't searched yet, but can I expect it to get worse with time?
Thanks,
Eric

Some of them come with the Honda 260HP V6. I wouldn't mess with them.
