I think a Porsche might be the better comp for the VS. A Porsche can be a pain in the ass but it can get up and go too. So can the VS and a lot of people lust after it. But while all you are beatchin about your cars, I'm going to climb into my "SUV" Calcutta 400 and just try to keep the sand out
Seriously - IF I could afford one and fished spinning I might get one but it's a non issue and for as little as I fish spinning (more of a loaner rod) I have a 6500SS Penn... More than enough...
