Re: We are Vibe Hogs!

Nice collection... I just bought mine 2 weeks ago, and now there is an 04 AWD just down the road from me... Has 124k miles and they're asking $6995 for it... I'm really tempted to pick it up...

The previous owner was from Hennepin County... I'm out in Wright County... Are the 03-04 consoles higher up as compared to the 07 model? Could use an extra 3 inches in height...

Re: I got one!!

Good purchase... especially in white. Looks nicely kept, too. Auto or Manual? Polish the paint. Keep it going. Vibes can last a long time! Those rusty steel wheels can be easily cleaned up, too. My son's '06 were really rusted, I just cleaned them, sanded and put a light coat of Rustoleum rusty met...

Re: I got one!!

Probably going to upgrade the radio and put a little tint on the windows. Love it so far... But I don't think it has ABS brakes, at least no light comes on to indicate it when I start the car.

Also, what is the nipple looking thing on the top of the dash? Top left of the dash...

After 6 months of research, looking, and saving money, I finally found one.

Re: what do i need to know? i want to buy an '03 vibe.

Another Minnesotan looking for a Vibe? Go figure.... Demand is high and so are the prices... When I find a listing and call about it, salesman always says it just sold... Sometimes I find a nice one at a reasonable price, only to find out it has a salvaged title.... Grrr Good luck in your search, an...

Re: Taking the plunge...

Thanks for all the responses... I am in central Minnesota. The car is in Wisconsin. I am hesitant about not having a vehicle checked out before buying. The good thing, I still have a few months before I need to purchase a Vibe.
