Hey Everyone! I have a 1992 Vigor GS for sale. Its a buckingham blue pearl. No rust and all original in amazing condition with 112,000 original miles. Feel free to reach out for more info.

[@TysonHugie]

I'll pin the comment so people see it here.

[@Mayberrymojo]

Where can I find more info on this? Also, how much?

[@Pgheemskerk]

I owned several Acuras. But, this was my favorite car. FAVORITE. More so then my Mercedes I've owned as well. Lived this car.

[@TysonHugie]

They are awesome rides!

[@1985oldsmobile]

How unfortunate to see that you’re selling the Vigor, but I’m very grateful for the content that you provided about your Vigor and the really cool (and very 90’s) promotional video that you posted. Such a shame that these cars don’t really receive much recognition and it doesn’t help there weren’t a lot made. All the best on the sale and I hope this receives a loving home such as yours! Thanks for sharing about this car!

[@TysonHugie]

My pleasure! Thank you for watching & supporting!

[@1985oldsmobile]

Tyson Hugie Anytime!

[@sleeksilver]

Sad that you're selling it! It might be one of your most rare Acuras aside from the NSX and SLX!

[@TysonHugie]

It is a tough one to let go of! I think my auction will begin in the next couple of weeks.

[@torreyinnewyorkcity334]

Someone so lucky to get this. I wish I was lived closer.

Thanks Torrey!

I know! Thank you Michael.

NOOOO not the Vigor, that's my favorite Acura you have . I will really miss seeing videos on this girl. Wish I had extra cash I'd love to own her. Good luck on the auction.

[@TysonHugie]

Thank you Adam!

[@chrismunsey3185]

Never knew these had the 5cyl in them. Beautiful car. Brings back memories. Whoever gets it will have a very clean vehicle for sure. Hope they take care of it like you have.

[@TysonHugie]

Thank you Chris!

[@acura2g]

What a beautiful Vigor. My aunt had a Vigor that she owned for over 10 years and always made positive comments about. Always have to have that period correct sound track 😉. Good luck with the auction and can't wait to see what pulls into the stable next!

[@TysonHugie]

Thanks Ty! I know, haha. I couldn't resist making the playlist available for that optimal 1990s feel. Hope you have a great weekend.

[@jesselanyon246]

Man oh man. This one does break my heart a little bit. I've followed you ever since i came across the video you made about your friends 1993 accord SE sedan. And a vigor in my opinion is essentially an upgraded accord SE. It has some extra power(5cyl) and extra features, that put it right between a legend and accord SE. It's gotta be one of the most well preserved vigors in the entire country as well! i mean how often do you see a vigor of any condition these days, let alone one thats looks so amazing like that one! haha. But it will for sure go to a great new home as your selling on B.A.T. but dang, was kind of hoping this one would be a keeper. Good luck on the sale Tyson!

[@TysonHugie]

Thanks Jesse! I've enjoyed this for 5 years. Gotta evolve a bit and enjoy collecting other stuff from time to time.

[@guynese977]

nothing the same as accord. lol the vigor is all its own import. i know I have one..

Hope u get another Vigor I miss it. who love the wood grain inside

[@TysonHugie]

Thanks

[@CJDiecast]

I'm just hoping whoever gets it will take just as good of care of it as you did. Hopefully they won't beat the shit out of it or leave it outside ruining the preservation of it. Sure it's daily drivable but if they do, please take care of it. This car is a unicorn, heck, I've never even seen one in person.

[@TysonHugie]

Thanks CJ! Agreed

[@marcperras9072]

If I was local to you I'd let you borrow my 94 Integra for your photo shoot. That is one super nice Vigor. The new owner will get a gem of a car. I hope you get your asking price.

Thanks Marc! Even though it's too late for this photoshoot, I would still love to check out your 1994 someday.

[@TysonHugie]

No I just decided it was time to move on! I might sell another couple of cars soon too.

Yes I'm thinking it would be fun to own another one in the future.

[@hehehaha2878]

Tyson Hugie I be waiting

[@CRAPO2011]

Vigors are unloved for some reason , were they just as reliable as the integra? Or was it due to its unique 5 cylinder parts were more expensive?

[@TysonHugie]

I don't know about reliability, I've only put 13,000 miles on mine. But yes it's been a great car. A Vigor is 10x more rare than a Legend.

Bummer! It was up for 7 days on the auction. Got picked up by the buyer today! He was thrilled.

[@swpdisciple]

Oh man, that’s a rare bird. Why are you selling? I’m kinda in a similar spot with my 2007’s I may have to sell my Accord EX-L coupe V6 and/or Acura TL Type-S (Both manual) to make room (space-wise and monetarily) for a 911 but I REALLY don’t want to sell them smh. I’m trying every way to hold onto them. Also what’s your suggestion for an SUV to pair if I kept them? (I know wildly different from a 911 lol)

[@swpdisciple]

E W yes...I’d love to keep them and still may. If I can find the space I’ll just save an extra year for the 911 if I have to.

[@TysonHugie]

I know, this was a really difficult decision. It's a combination of factors - I've enjoyed the car 5 years, shown it at some major events, and had my fun. I don't have time to drive the car as much as it needs to get driven (I have 8 other cars right now). Part of the fun of being a collector is evolving and buying other cars from time to time. Plus with all the uncertainty around this year, it's hitting my career/industry so this is financially motivated as well.

[@lujr2225]

@@TysonHugie what do you do for work?

Are you kidding me? 911s are a dime a dozen they’re EVERYWHERE, all 10,000 variations of them! Nothing special! Keep the TL type S at least!!

DIAMLER that’s what EVERYONE keeps telling me. Ditto with the M2/M3/M4. I totally get what everyone is saying in terms of rarity. I have the nighthawk black with 78k mi,if it were electron blue pearl it’d be a no-brainer.

[@a.person7825]

@@TysonHugieI understand you having tobget rid of it. It's time for someone else to enjoy the harmonious thrum of five cylinder sound. Picture it: It's 1997, a relatively warm February day (for Georgia anyway). I'm sixteen and my parents take me to Carmax to pick out a car, which I am going to pay for. We see a Vigor on the outer row. I already new it had to be an automatic, so I didn't even bother. I went around and looked at some Mazdas, a Nissan or two and even a Jeep. Well, I eventually wandered back over to the Vigor. When I peered into the window and saw the manual gear shifter, I yelled, "Getting this one!" It had 87,000mi on the odometer. It was a '92 GS with Rosewood paint and black leather. We drove it and loved it; Dad was convinced it had to have a V6. I told him it sure didn't sound like one. We popped the hood and the salesman was clueless, but I saw 20 Valve and knew it had 5 pots! Kept it 6 years and put 130,000 miles on it. I sold it to a friend and his girlfriend wrecked it. Oh well, it's last mission was to save someone's life. Btw, you will have that garage!
