I very sadly wrecked my '03 Vibe (base model) in a t-bone collision. I didn't want to sink hundreds of dollars into the car to fix it, so I used it as a trade-in...for a new Vibe. I upgraded to an '09 GT with barely-legal tinted windows and 18" TSW wheels. My '03 NEVER failed me, and still ran like a champ with almost 160k miles on it. I loved my old Vibe so much, that I couldn't consider buying anything else!

(sorry for the poor picture...I've been traveling a lot lately and the car is covered in highway bugs)
While I'm not enjoying making payments for the first time ever for a car, I'm still happy. Here's to many more years with a Vibe!
