Pontiac Performance Magazine Spring 2008

Post by TraySeeLea »

I just received my spring magazine today....and my picture is HUGE!....I guess I did not really have a choice as to which picture the photographer chose of me.....but oh well...maybe I can ask the photographer for a copy of the other pictures he took but the magazine did not use.

I received mine yesterday and it was a huge picture and a good article to go with it. The whole magazine had a good portion of it devoted to the 2009 Vibe.

Looks like people got their magazines...The editor/guy who wrote the article went a little askew with the whole shipwreck thing in Lake Ontario...as there aren't like major ship wrecks there....but I guess that's what you get when the guy who wrote the article has never been to upstate NY.....overall it was a great article....my favorite part was the cheesy heading of "school teacher gives vibe high marks" haha....creative

Something's going on. I got my first Pontiac Performance today -Spring 2008 issue with an '09 red Vibe on cover - and Tracy, you are not in it. Could there be regional editions. Based on earlier posts, I looked through it first to find your photo/article. I have been through it page by page and you are not in there. ?????

When you register, you should have noted that you were a Vibe owner. Apparently, they think you've got a Soltice.

I got mine today - great picture. You mean there was an article too? Must have missed that! Interesting that I never received the mag (or anything at all) from GM recognizing I owned the first Vibe. But now that I've bought the second I'm on the mailing list.I think dealership #1 never turned in my info to GM cause they knew they would have been slammed on the post-purchase survey.

I was disappointed that nobody ever contacted me. I guess once they got my money, nobody cared if I was happy. I got my revenge by steering potential customers to other Pontiac dealerships.I just got my magazine today. I can't believe there was no mention of genvibe.
