I have to confess I have been out of the car market for many years, but unfortunately, due to the fact that my car was hit/totaled, I have no choice but buy a car. Definitely, I'm set in getting a Vibe/Matrix. But I guess I must be lacking of the best method to approach a CL's seller. So far, I get ...

How about when I leave vm

I'm in N. Seattle and you?
Amazing I'm down to 8 CL sellers and not a single "Thank U" or worse. I'm getting to the point that these CL's listings are fake to lure people then steal their $, cell or worse.

However, to be honest I don't see any big difference in prices. I see Vibes as high as Matrix these days. In your opinion do you think that a Vi...

As far as the Side Air Bags, yes, I found that out when I drove tested a 2009, which it showed the tags on the side of ...

First of all I am very pleased to found this Forum. I have to tell you all that I had never knew anything about the Vibe or Matrix period. You see I've been out of the market for many years driving a Mitsubishi Galant 1994, but it was totaled a month ago. Anyways, to make it short. I stopped by a Hy...
