I did that last year, but I inadvertantly put flashing lights in. I haven't doe it yet this year, but I have the lights sitting in the hatch, waiting to go on.....

I supposed you had all go check the C6 section of corvetteforum.com, or go to the carconnection.com - they both have photos of the actual car, which was caught in SF during a commercial shoot. The cat IS out of the bag!

Got one CD in heavy rotation right now; a compilation of stuff I DL'd from iTunes to try it out. Can't remember some of the song titles right now, but it's got stuff from:3 Doors DownThird Eye BlindColdplayStaindCaedmon's CallJeremy CampFFHMark Schultz...and a few others I can't remember right now. ...

'Bout time you got over here, slacker. Welcome, Bill - tough making the decision to spend mod money on the Vibe or the Vette, isn't it?

According to the article, they had 3 different Vibe's involved. They may not have had the same equipment. If you look at the "shaving" picture, the map lights associated with the moon roof option are not visible. There is not a picture on that site which shows both together in the same car.

I'm up in Macomb (a little S of you, apparently), but work in Troy. Of course, right now you can't tell what color my Vibe is - I prefer to call it "salt camoflage".

Hehe, similar story here - I pulled into the work parking lot a couple weeks ago, and found out that I was already at work! At least, that's what it looked like, 'cuz my Vibe's twin was in the parking lot. I figured out who it belonged to, and after comparing notes, it turns out she has EXACTLY the ...

Been playing keyboards (mostly piano; now have a Yamaha S80 synth) since I was around 5. My abilities probably peaked when I was in my teens; now I usually only play once or twice a week (I play for our church). I've been SLOWLY teaching myself guitar over the past 2-3 years, but I'm not putting eno...

Mine is normally in the garage, but it had to sit outside a few days last week. It was a little sluggish on the 10-degree mornings, but it did turn over. BTW, howdy, neighbor!

I know I'm going to miss some, but here goes:1973 Firebird V6 (actually, parents' car, so it doesn't count)1975 Olds Starfire V6 (red; auto)1977 Datsun B210 (blue; 4-spd)1979 Firebird Formula (blue; 4-spd)1980 Toyota Celica (Brown; 5-spd)1980 Chrysler Cordoba (Blue)1982 Buick Regal (Blue)1984 Chevy ...

Like Quikag, I, too, have a Vette as my "summer driver". The point you make about practicality is true enough, but, the general concept of the "sports car" has very little to do with practicality. Having said that, the Vette is one of the more practical sports cars out there. Lik...

Perhaps of more use than the bulletin itself, is the fact that the bulletin contains the name and phone number of the Vibe Brand Quality Manager at Pontiac. That could come in handy down the road.....

quote:Honda is supplying GM with a small volume of the 3.5L V6 engines that GM will use for the Saturn VUEs. Since Saturn is GM's import fighter, GM will probably gain more sales with this move. Honda, in return, will buy Isuzu (GM affiliate) built diesel engines that they will put in their European...

Every remote start system I've seen says "auto transmissions only". Too many liability problems, if you inadvertantly leave a manual in gear and disable the "clutch depressed" switch.

Cryin' with ya....

quote:I guess you could put bigger rims on it and just keep your stock wheels in reserve in case the moonroof cracks. that way you can put the factory wheels back on before going to get the warranty work done on your Vibe(as far as your moonroof)I might try this, when I'm ready to get new wheels. I ...

Well, I got rid of a 4WD Explorer to get the Vibe, since I think I used the 4WD system maybe twice in two years. The Vibe isn't "great" in the snow, but it's adequate (would probably be more than adequate, if I'd get rid of the Conti's). I managed to stall it once (1st time) coming up to a...

I know that GM doesn't offer the 17" rims with the M&T package, and supposedly that has to do with stresses that could cause the moonroof to crack with the larger rims. With that in mind, does anyone have experience with using aftermarket rims (17" or larger), with the moonroof? I'm ho...

I think that's close, but I've heard "In My Humble Opinion" in the past...

quote:The new styled Vette totally SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!! You mean, the "new-styled Vettes" that have been in production for 6 years now? I'm confused..... And, what about them suck? Don't hold back; tell us what you REALLY think.

GM is changing the way you can use a GM card's points, if you try to combine that with a GMS employee discount. I received a notice in the mail stating that I needed to get a new GM card that only paid 1% toward a car purchase, if I wanted to use GMS. If I wanted to keep the old 5% card, I woul not ...

You'll like it! Nice choice on the color, too.

In a few weeks, I'll be driving around with Christmas lights.

Yup, Macomb Co., here - two-week owner here.

Let's see, 10 minute drive in Rochester...that means, you must live across the street from where you work. Oakland Co. traffic is MURDER!!!

I bought one of the ZipZaps from RS; what a riot! I got the F&F upgrade kit, too, which gives you 2 new bodies (Eclipse & RX7), motors, gears, tires, suspension bars, & spoilers. The only problem is that they are only available in two frequencies - some of their competitors (Bit Char-G &...

I'm in the same boat; bought mine last Thursday. I should've known, as it seemed like the dealer knew and was trying to ease the transition into the higher rebate - they offered an extra $250 dealer cash on everything sold on the 30th and 31st of Oct. (so, I'm only out $250).
