He probably said "Type V". It's a model available in Japan that has VGS - Variable Geometry Steering.

I thought it was Variable Gear Steering. Mmm odd. But yeah, Type-V (Man I wish I could have the Steering Wheel off the Type-V.)

It's a progressive steering system. It is supposed to change the ammount of steering input needed depending on the speed you are going. It has gotten mixed reviews at best, but the wheel is SWEET!.
