Re: Bob's for sale/part pickin' thread

I will message you back on monday around 5pm with what I find and a cost. Thanks Thanks! I'm tired of having a broken door handle and radio b...

Re: GenVibe Meet 2016

I hope I'll be able to attend next year's event. Definitely got some work to do on my car before I try to show it off even a little bit. I'm pretty much bone stock and still show up. It's not all about the mods (though they are usually pretty sweet!). Everyone had a good time, even a few people who...

Thinking of getting a window sticker for my Vibe.

Not sure if anyone has one or has even thought about it, but I'm thinking of getting a window sticker made for the rear that says something along the lines of "Toyota in Disguise". Not sure the design, but that's a start. I wouldn't have gotten my Vibe if it wasn't engineered by Toyota as ...

LED interior lights.. help?

I just got my beauty of a Vibe and I'm wanting to do a swap of interior lights. What would you suggest? What sizes LED's go in the car? I tried looking up the size of the dome light at work and when I search online I get unmatching numbers. Since you're all the pros on Vibe's, I turn to you. Thanks!

Have them tested at the parts store or give all contacts to the battery and at the other ends a good cleaning. Bad grounds can cause trouble.

Finally a vibe owner!

I've finally got my hands on a vibe. It's a 2006 Vibe Base auto with 73k miles. It's not too pretty but it feels solid. The previous owners didn't take care of it like they should have. Seats are covered in stains. It's also been in a few accidents(nothing serious from what I can tell). The guy I go...

Re: Soon to be part of the club. 04 vibe base

2400 OBO sounds pretty good if that's all that is wrong with it I think, even with that mileage. I bought my 04 Base auto for $5600 after taxes, plate fees, etc. And that had about 167k miles on it. I'm actually looking at another vibe. 06 Vibe Base auto with 72k miles. I got the owner to meet me a...

Re: buying a vibe. How many miles is too many?

I was able to talk the seller down to $2700. I kinda expected them to counter with $3k, but who am I to argue with them accepting my first offer? I'm going to drive up there on Friday and check it out. It's about a hour and a half drive north from me, but for the price and condition of the car, I'm ...

Re: buying a vibe. How many miles is too many?

I appreciate the input. Sadly, my budget is at max, $3k. I was originally looking at the Honda Fit, as I drive one at one of my jobs on a daily basis. I really like the Fit but I also like the Vibe/Matrix. I've actually found a 06 Vibe with 76k miles on it for $3500 *(gonna try to talk down to 3k). ...

Re: buying a vibe. How many miles is too many?

What generation and what year are you looking at? For me, when dealing with a Honda or Toyota engine, it is about the age, not the mileage. I'll buy a 2009 with 150,000 miles any day of the week before buying a 2003 with the same mileage. A well cared for Honda or Toyota engine will go for 300,000 ...

I'm looking for a Vibe and I'm curious where you would draw the line when looking for one. I had a vibe lined up and the guy sold it the day before I had the money in hand. Thanks!

Looking at this one. The owner has sent me better pictures and it's quite clean. I'd have to drive to go see it, but I'm interested. The miles are what scare me.

Re: Soon to be part of the club. 04 vibe base

Back to the drawing board. The guy that was holding the vibe ended up selling it to his cousin. What mileage would you not look at a vibe for? I know there are a few GT's in the area but they're higher miles around 180k.
