Totaled Vibe

Post by dinkers123 »

Hey guys. a few months ago I was in a wreck and my car was totaled. I miss that car a lot and hope to get another one someday, since I couldn't find a used vibe in my price range I got a used mazda 3. I learned a lot from these forums and I'll probably stick around and see whats happening on genvibe.wrecked vibenew car

I've always liked the look of the 3's--good luck with it! How was your Vibe totaled?

I was in an unfamiliar place, and while I was looking up at street signs I ran a red light and hit a dodge avenger.

Good choice. I had an '05 3 hatch for awhile. Really liked it but needed something bigger. Only complaint was that it had to have the fuel pump replaced twice the first year I had it. I recommend doing the airbox silencer removal. A pain to do but really made a difference. Car sounded a lot meaner.

I've already installed a simota intake. One of the good things about the 3 is that theres plenty of aftermarket products out there.

Your new 3 is nice, but not as sexy as your Lava Vibe (completely unbiased opinion).Glad you are ok.
