I was putting groceries in the back of my mom's Vibe at Walmart this afternoon and I happened to look up and notice the rear end of a 2009-2010 Liquid Platinum Metallic GT parked down the aisle a ways (look between the windshield of the Vibe and the rear window of the green truck and you will see it ).

Image

Oh, and on the opposite side of the aisle from the LPM GT was an older blue Matrix, but unfortunately I didn't notice it in time to get a threesome picture :(.

I've posted a picture of my mom's Vibe with this 2009 Mystic Blue Metallic 1.8L Base before, but today we happened to see it and we were in my Vibe, so...

Notice the ominous looking sky in the second picture. I jumped out and took these right before a nasty storm came through.

I was on my way home from work the other day when I saw this 2nd gen Liquid Platinum Metallic AWD on a side street. He was totally checking my Vibe out as I drove by :D! He ended up behind me, so I decided to snap this picture in my mirror...

I believe this is the first time ever (outside of meets) where my Vibe is parked next to another Vibe (Nick ... KIT222). A view from the fourth floor of the hotel :D

Haha the ultimate Random Acts of Vibe Love. Today I was out and about today with my kids and I just happened to spot 03VibeOttawa's Vibe just parked along in the parking lot. So I decided to pull in and snap this pic.... Here you go :P

Sure is nice to see another modded Vibe in the city of Ottawa.

Not mine, but a local dealer REALLY likes to show the Vibe love! Two dealers almost constantly have Vibes (or Matrices) in their inventory.

Image
Image

Three Vibes, each decent deals. Let's see... my aunt wants to get rid of her Mazda6 for a crossover, so I could try to persuade her into one, my uncle into the other, and my friend who is currently in Basic into the other! :roll:

... I can dream, can't I? Heck, if I could I'd take ALL THE VIBES!!!!! :lol:

We saw so many Vibes and especially Matrixes ? on our trip to CA this week. At least a dozen. I only got a couple of pics though.

In a Las Cruces parking lot a nice XRS:
Image

A few minutes later on the street, a nice 09-10 Vibe GT:
Image

That was the first GT that I've seen being driven. I thought it had different wheels on it at first since I've never seen a GT on the move before. :lol:

Parked in one of our favorite end spots (yes, I purposely park over further in end spots) at Aldi and when we came out there was a silver 1st gen (2005+ I believe) parked next to us. The owner was still in it. I started putting groceries away and he got out and came around to the rear passenger side to get his son out of the rear seat. I said, "Hey, nice Vibe!" He said, "Thanks." Then he looked closer to see that our vehicle was a Vibe too. He laughed and said, "Oh, yours is the nicer model." I said, "Nah, it's just newer." We talked about gas mileage and how the Vibe is such a great little vehicle. I also mentioned that this one was my mom's and I had one just like it, but mine is silver. He also mentioned what a shame it was that Pontiac and the Vibe are no more. I waited for him and his son to get into the store before I took the picture (stupid cell phone... I don't know why the picture turned out so small :cry:). Unfortunately, I din't think to mention GV... oh well. At least he realized what an awesome little vehicle he's got and was more than happy to discuss it!

Well I had an act but didn't take a pic.

The other day, I saw a lonely vibe with an older man at the end of the Target parking lot. Hood open and man was peaking under the hood. it was an 05 orange vibe. luckily, i was in the vibe and not the 240 so i strolled on by and asked if he needed any help. He said that his tranny was sticking and he needed to take it to the dealer. i told him about the pcm recall and he said, "really?! Well i am going to get this fixed then". just passing the word to other vibe owners. the old man was happy and went on his way.

My wife and I spotted this 2003 GT tonight on our way home from dinner. I thought I had seen it around my neighborhood before. We ended up following it onto our own block! I think its a friend of a neighbor. I don't see many GT's around these parts.
