The 99-00 models were the first generation of wireless throttle. Not the most reliable system, it was replaced for 01.
VADIS is too new and very expensive. The cost of doing your own diagnostics and software downloads is not user friendly. Ask any indy shop. Even the dealers dislike charging $100+ for a download, but they do anyway! Vadis, like OBDII readers will come down in price, but initally you will also need a laptop computer to talk to your car.
