WOW, $12,400 for a 2004 Vibe.

Seems every 3-6 months he has it up on Ebay, and the price keeps getting lower and lower. I wonder if that mileage is really correct.

damronjr traded it quite a while ago, so if it hasn't been driven significantly since then, the mileage could be correct. I believe he was in the military, which would lead to it being parked a lot.

The listing indicates it is being sold by a dealer. You would think that they would at least detail the car before taking pictures.

When I looked at the pictures, the first thing I thought was how nasty that engine looks.

Without all the "mods" even with 40,000 miles I'd say $10,000 max on a good day. The rest depends on what all that is worth to you.
