I've noticed that I see more Frostys and Platinums here than anything else. Then Salsa, Lava, Moonstone, Stealth, Neptune, Abyss, Fusion.I've never seen older people in Vibes though...I think my Mom's the only cool one LOL
Around here, the most popular color is clear... since nobody around these parts wants to drive one. Although as non-existant as Vibes are, somehow this crummy lil' town has an Envy of its own running around that I've seen on more than a couple occasions.In my travels, I seem to see a lot of satellite/platinum ones, probably moreso than any of the other colors...

I'd say Satellite/Platinum in Ottawa is most frequently seen. Followed by Abyss and Salsa. I see one Envy - and its the same one everytime because it has personalized plates. I've seen a couple of Fusions. Not many Frosty, Lavas or Neptunes.

here in my town, there are more Neptune 2-tones than anything, followed by Salsa, then Lava, and then strangely....Fusion....there are about 5 of them in town. I've seen one Moonstone, never seen a 05~ Platinum nor a Envy around here. I think my 2 Vibes have been the only AWD, but I've Seen an Abyss GT.

hard to tell here in alaska but the most unpopular colour seems to be fusion. Which is fine by me. I think I've seen maybe 2-3 other fusion coloured vibes up here that were not the same one seen over and over.

I seem to see lots of Frostys and Satellite/Platinum. One thing i dont see much of is the Monotone.

its hard to rank the color around here there are just a ton of vibes everywhere. there seems to be a good distribusion of color. I know of only 2 Envy's though and only seen 1 Stealth that was not on the dealership lots. more older people than younger driving the vibes.I do see a large number of matrix too and there I see mostly the Silver ones.
hmmm, i've seen quite a few and the drivers appear to either be 30 yr old soccer-moms-in-the-making OR older than 65 males. (i guess i don't really fit in!)as far as color??? i'd guess there's a lot of the platinums/stealths... a handful of 2-tone neptune and mono salsas. i've seen only one other abyss - but no pinstriping!...Quote, originally posted by zionzr2 »i dont suppose there are any actual sales figures to back up our claims is there?that would be interesting to see
2007 sun & sound, preferred pack, 5-speed, mono Abyss with metallic blue pins... oooh aaaah
There's one Envy running around my area (haven't seen it in a while tho) but I've never seen a fusion. mostly salsa, neptune, or silver. One abyss and a couple moonstone (including me )

About all we have are production numbers from waaay back in the day for '03. I don't know where those numbers came from but would be nice to find updated ones.http://forums.genvibe.com/zerothread?id=6023

I would say Neptune, I think there are two Monotone and two, 2 tone here in town, but all the colors are represented except Envy. Has anyone ever seen an Envy Monotone?
I see almost all colors all of the time. Mostly Neptune though. The rarest ones are Envy, Fusion, and Abyss believe it or not. I don't see a whole lot of black ones like mine and two tone Abyss's are even more rare!
I see lots of Platinum, Neptune, then some Salsas, a couple of Lava, Fusion and Frosty, even less Abyss, and I have NEVER even seen a live Envy anywhere, let alone here in London.The age range seems to be mostly medium-old farts like me (30-45), a couple of ancients, but not too many young-uns.
