smart ppl don't overrate it. ppl who don't know what the fuck they are talking about overrate it.
those un-smart ppl think it's such a great thing b/c it's called vtec..... it has the word "tec" or "tech" or "tek" or whatever. just b/c the way it sounds verbally. hell, i'll call my car the accordtec. now it sounds cool and is really fast.
main point is, those who know their shit. don't overrate vtec.
