- We have a Vigor with the DSP and I've loved it since we've had it.
- You can call it a gimmick - I like the different acoustics based on
- the type of music we're listening to.
-
- A couple of posts ago Eliot criticized the Vigors handling on some "S"
- bends so I decided to switch cars with my wife and give it a shot.
- Well, maybe I didn't get a normal Vigor (yea, right) but the
- suspension on our Vigor is nice and tight and didn't get bent out of
- shape one bit on some pretty drastic attitude changes.
