I think thats the biggest mistake.. it's not that they dont know how to spell it, it's just they dont know each letter is an abbreviation for a word, not just the first "V."

-- Variable valve Timing and lift Electronic Control

-- not Valve Technology or Variable Technology

I've even seen adds in the Buy Sells spell it Vtech.. and they were from Honda dealerships!

I thought that the HX models didnt have a vtec engine, just a normal 1.7L engine with a base HP of 115.
