Hello everyone in GenVibe land! I was just on the XM radio website last week and noticed that they have a few new products coming out within the next month. The first is called the "Roady" and is a ready to roll package that runs about $120.00 without the subscription. This package is a DI...

Very nice! I don't suppose you have any information on ordering one or a web address? I definately want one! Jon

This is not the first Yakima that I have installed on a car that I have owned. If you do it properly and use the tools provided, you shouldn't scratch your car up.....if you are careful. I didn't go with the Thule because I don't like their system, it's more expensive and I hear they are harder to i...

Actually I have the moon roof and the rack doesn't get in the way at all. Jon

Last one! Yes, it does look funny but I kind of like it since I use the the rack so much!

Hi out there, I haven't posted for a while though I do visit quite often. I bought my GT back in August and have been pondering the roof rack problem ever since. Well, I did come up with a solution that enables one to have skis and/or bikes on the car while still being able to use the hatchback. Acc...

Sorry to hear about your problem Ironman. I know this problem has surfaced on a few occasions on this board as of late. I came up with a solution with the Yakima system. Instead of buying 2 sets of towers that attach directly to the factory rack, I bought one set of the normal roof towers and one se...

Hey out there, I just ordered a hood cover for my Abyss GT and was wondering if anyone else has one out there. Being this is my first "brand new" car I am really (removed) about the car and I have already picked up 2 rock chips on the hood. I looked into the rock/bug deflectors and was uni...

Here's my 2 cents..... It's obvious the review was written in a less than objective style. I wouldn't put any stock in it whatsoever. Yes, you do have to push the clutch down all the way to the floor to start it, maybe the reviewer should have adjusted her seat properly before trying to drive the ca...

Thanks NSimkins!! That answered just about all the questions I have....I'm glad to see the car isn't goverened. I might have to test things out when I travel to Montana this weekend!!! Jon

Hey gang, I've had my GT for about 2 weeks now and I am still really impressed with it. Does anyone know what the top speed is for the GT? I haven't pushed mine past 90 yet and was curious to see what it can do. I must say that next to my old car, (95 mercrury tracer wagon with a whoppin 88 hp) this...

I agree with you on that....I intend to order one here when I get my next paycheck. On a side note, it looks like I am going to need a category in my budget for all the times I wash the car...I guess that's what you get for ordering black.. Jon

Thanks guys, I agree with you on the bra isssue.....I think they look like crap most of the time. I think that I will try the deflector though, thanks for the link!!! Jon

I finally got my Vibe this weekend and after a 1400 mile road trip I have to say that I am very impressed with it. I do have a problem though... I noticed that I already have a couple of rock chips on the hood and I am the type to obsess about that kind of stuff. Anyway, I am going to the nearest de...

Hey NovaResource, About 12 years ago I had a 65 Chevy II Nova, that was bright pink. I believe that it originally had the 6 with the powerglide transmission. When we bought it had a 350 with a 4 on the floor. What a car for a 17 year old. Anyway, we had to sell when I went to college and I miss the ...

Thanks for the reply. I will be turning 30 here in October so I would guess that my rates should be less than what you are paying. I really can't wait for the car to get here. I ordered an abyss GT with the moon and tunes package! Hopefully the insurance doesn't break my bank! Jwnmt

I am sure that the ad was designed that way on purpose. Pontiac is trying to get an image across to prospective buyers. The car may not be in the ad that much but it will generate curiosity about the car in general. I my opinion, most GM commercials these days are boring and don't last in my memory....

Hello again, I just saw one of the new ads for the Vibe the other day. It featured some guy who was obviously a DJ or something to that effect loading his gear into his Vibe. Being a full fledged member of Gen X I found the whole atmosphere of the ad to be appealing. What did everyone else think? Co...

Howdy, My GT should be delivered here in the next 4 weeks and I have started insurance shopping online. The only problem is that most companies do not list the Vibe in their online quote applications yet. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share what rates they are paying for their Gt. An...

I looked at the Saturn Vue and the Aztec (ugh). I didn't bother to look at the WRX because I knew that was the car I would fall in love with (too pricey). I enjoy an active lifestyle and the Vibe GT fit the price and the profile. I do really wish I could afford a WRX though. Jwnmt

Hi again, I am stil waiting for my GT and I am really curious as to how much fun the Gts are to drive. When I test drove a Vibe only a base model was available, I found it to be more powerful than my pitiful 95 Mercury Tracer wagon (a whole whopping 88 hp Wheeeeeeeeee). Anyway any comments on the GT...

Thanks for the replies everyone, as of right now I am leaning toward Abyss. As for the monochrome package........most definately yes. I think the Vibe looks so much better that way. Next I am going to need new wheels and speakers........................ Jon

The other option would be to have a trailer hitch installed (is it available?) and buy a rack that sits on that. I guess you would still run into the same problem though. I know the Saturn Vue has an interior rack available. Perhaps Pontiac will release one for the vibe (I don't know if it is tall e...

Personally, I still stand behind GM and their products. It's quite obvious that GM has made some mistakes in the demand for certain packages and models of the vehicle. You still can buy from the dealer you know (which is what I am doing now instead of waiting for my order, the only thing that will b...

Hi again, In my experience the dealers are not reliable when it comes to that sort of information. They seem to be more occupied with making a sale. Case in point when I test drove a Vibe in March the dealer told me that the GTs and AWD would not be produced until October or so. I new otherwise of c...

I don't know, I ordered it from a dealer in Detroit. The local Pontiac dealership here was less than friendly. I will have one in 2 weeks since we are just going to take one from the one of the Detroit dealers. Now all I have to do is decide between Neptune and Abyss. On a side note, here is some go...

Hi there, I am pretty new to the forum but I can perhaps shed some light on the frustrations involved with the long wait time for Vibes. Trust me GM is concerned about this, they know that a possible Vibe customer could just as easily cross the street and buy a Matrix. I personally share your frustr...

Hi there, I am currently in the process of buying a Vibe GT. The only problem is that my father is picking it up for me in Detroit and driving it out to WA. I have test drove an Abyss colored Vibe but have not seen the Neptune in the flesh yet. Any opinions? Thanks! Jwnmt [Modified by Jwnmt, 3:42 AM...
