Picked up our 1st one last April and now we have 3. Just love these cars! The most versatile, reliable, easy to maintain car that gives great gas mileage too!
Quick pic of the 3. All need cleaning lol

Still looks better than mine.

I don't bother with a picture because mine's a definite 'user' car, not a 'show' car.

Some of us appreciate 'user' cars as much if not more so than 'show' cars.

MVS...Matrix Vibe Syndrome.. Once you have one, you need them all. It's not an addiction if you know about it.

Anyone know how to straighten a center dent in a hood? (As in center of the _front_ of the hood. The previous owner managed to crunch it. I suspect they had it open, and lowered a garage door on it - there's no damage to the front bumper or the grill)

Congratulations on your third Vibe. Your daughter in the picture is a little to young to drive though, isn't she?

Three Vibes .... Nice! ;) How many drivers? I have four Vibes and a G8GT with three drivers (one is out of service for the time being). It's definitely an addiction :lol:

Find a clean one in a junk yard and have it painted to match. Had to do that on Stealth for two crashes and a hail storm, so it's wearing it's fourth hood now.

What’s up to my Vibe family! Haven’t been here in while. Our 3 Vibes have been awesome! Just changing the oil every 5k miles (SuperTech high mileage full synthetic 5W-30) and all the other fluids every 30k mi. All are running great! :mrgreen:
