Finally got one.

Post by max1057 »

Just got a 2007 Vibe after looking for some time. It's moonstone. Has premium sound system, electric moon roof, and a few other options. 51,000 mi. one owner. Paid $9,900 from a dealer. Not really a bad price for around here. Believe me I've been looking. Anyway, now I'm in the loop of you Vibe owners. Will post pictures later and probably have a few questions about it.

Glad to see another Michigander pick up a great deal on a Vibe. When I saw your avatar was an Abyss Vibe I got excited, but still remain *slightly* excited for your moonstone. Kidding. Welcome, welcome. And actually, $9,900, especially considering your mileage, is a compliment to these cars. All used cars are pulling in 10%-15% higher prices than normal right now, but I do believe the Vibe is very sought after lately for someone needing a darn reliable (and versatile) ride. EDIT: And Boudini just proved my point by finding the article in this thread ~ http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=46001

I always liked the "Moonstone". Considering the strength of the used car market the price was certainly within reason. Do a national search at CarMax.com and see the no haggle prices they are asking for similar Vibes and you will be pleased with your deal. For those with the resources to buy new I think that is the better economic decision but most are not in that position these days.

How do you fix that?First, your pictures must be hosted on a site like Flickr, PhotoBucket, etc. Next, simply cllick the "Insert Image" box located directly above the reply box, in the same section as "Bold", "Italicize" and "Underline". Then just right click on the picture and put the url for the picture in between the image tags.
