Camera position changing

So I want to programatically change the position of a cinemachine virtual camera I have referenced, which may, or may not be active. I've tried the classic transform.position fiddling, however, this doesn't seem to be possible. Let me know if there's a propper or less propper way to do this.

Edit: By active I mean the active cinemachine camera, not an unity active/inactive cinemachine camera in scene.

 

That could be good enough. I was really just wondering if I could change the coordinates, but since the position is being forced every frame I'm guessing your method is a good idea if I ever encounter such necessity again.
Not really attempting to do this at the moment, but I've had issues in the past with a racing game I made, where the car respawned with the same camera being active, and the player had to wait for the camera to get to the car, your solution helps in case I have to do something similar again, which I imagine I will.

Thanks a lot
