Lurked here for a bit, added a comment or two maybe so I figured I should show a bit of her car after cleaning it up. Car is always clean so it doesn't take much to do it.
2003 Vibe
Manufactured in 9/2002 and purchased the same month from my uncle who was the GM at the Chevy dealer in Sturgeon Bay, WI.
1.8L 4Cyl
4 Speed Auto
Lava with a Graphite interior
All the usual stuff standard equipment wise
Power package
Moonroof
Moon & Tunes
16" aluminum wheels
Engine block heater
Other than some scratches on the silver around the console the interior is still a nice environment to drive in.
In all the years we have had it the major things that needed work were known things mentioned in this forum.
Exhaust
A/C
Front struts
Took one try to sort them out and they have been fine since.
Other than that was a brake job, replacing the wiper blades once or twice and recently I replaced the starter using info here to troubleshoot and replace.
Only two negatives right now.
Clear coat up top disassembling itself. I will deal with it either temporarily or permanently.
Damage to the paint on the hood. Chips etc. That will need some permanent work or I will order that lava red hood I see online.
You can't ask for a better car in it's class. Bummed that I can't find the original sales info but we still have the window sticker so that has to count for something.
