He's trying to sell the car again! On one website it states Engine Unknown (Unspecified) Visiting DMV in Florida tomorrow...
Final Outcome: Due to confidentiality I can only say I have a new car no longer own Pontiac Vibe. Sorry, wanted to update, wasn't sure how to notify without compromising confidentiality agreement.

Wish me Luck!
I'll let you all know what happens

Engine Vin # is 5Y2SL67887Z427608 which GM verified as a 2007 Pontiac Vibe Base Wagon engine, 4CYL, 1.8 L automatic and I verified at Florida VIN check it has 85,870 miles on it! I know the Toyota Celic GT is a comparable engine replacement. I had looked up the specs prior to purchase. The mechanic ...
I just purchased a 2003 Vibe GT the ad stated: IT IS EQUIPPED WITH A 4 CYLINDER TOYOTA CELICA GT-S MOTOR AND 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. Had car checked by mechanic before purchasing. He didn't notice the incorrect engine because dealer put DOHC 16V cover on engine! We are still in the process of e...
