I first heard about it over at Vortex, back when GenVibe was listed as a sister site or something like that. What happened to that relationship??

I went to matrixvibe.net and didn't like some of the people there, some of the people there were kind of dawging on the Vibe, saying that the Matrix was better. Yes, there are differences, but it's not a big difference. Other than the exterior, radio components, and the door panels, and also, from what I heard, the Matrix is slightly bigger in the trunk, which is not true because I just bought a Matrix cargo mat from ebay and it fit perfectly. And, obviously, the badging is different. I don't know. I bounced from one site to the other and I found that Genvibe was defintely a lot better.Inder

how did you find GENVIBE.COM??

Post by MRCN RCE »

i thought i might have been able to resurrect an old thread, but search came up empty.i've asked a few people on their intro posts, so instead of askin every time, i just decided to make a new one dedicated to it. i think it's a pretty good one. maybe the mods will sticky it (hint hint nudge nudge wink wink)so the question is... how did you find genvibe.com?? if you were searching for something vibe related, let us know what that was too i found the site when i was on google searching for "vibe body kit", and somethin from this site was one of the first results. although i didn't really find exactly what i was lookin for, i got introduced to a site that's been a million times better than just a site sellin body kits

I found it by way of a Google search for "Vibe owners group" when I was having an unexplained problem with my car and getting the usual dealer run-around. I never dreamed I would find what I have, but I am so glad I did! I this site. For many reasons. LOL
