Get the new seat cover. A new seat cover will look like new, and be factory. I replaced the seatcovers in my F-250 years back with OEM covers, did not have to take the seats out to do it. Even if they do have to take them out, get the new cover, check their work and enjoy your car...

Be careful when using a cover outdoors. If dirt or sand get under the cover, the wind will blow the cover around and leave your car pretty scratched up. I think a cover is great indoors for keeping dust off, but a daily driver and a car cover can spell problems. Be sure your car is very clean efore ...

welcome

Always do your homework

I have never renewed mine either. Waste of money, until you need it I guess. I figure I got along without it for a long time...

I would not mind shifting more to save some green. I mean what the heck, you are going to be sitting there doing nothing anyway... If you did not want to shift, shoudl have bought an Auto...

I agree, helpful when I was looking at 09's.

I think the vibe is a much nicer car for the money. You may get a little more for the Honda on resale, but if you are keeping it for the long haul go for the Vibe.

Wow, thats a big difference.

I dont think so. Heck, they can not even make the stupid smart car get decent mileage in my opinion and that thing is a tin can. Someday we will all have efficient diesel's with more power, better economy and longer life. We can thank GM for screwing up the american view on Diesel in the early 80's ...

Good to know. Thanks.

Oh yeah, and glad your brother is OK. I am sure he feels bad about the accident. Hopefully he makes it up to you.

Sorry to hear about the wreck. Best of luck on the new one. Maybe you shoudl buy the old one from insurance for a couple hundred to have around for parts. or maybe there is a forum member who would buy it from you to have around.

Good luck on your quest for a vibe.

When I drove my new 09 I got high 20's. Not sure what the deal is but I woudl be taking it to the dealer and make them figure it out.

Well guys, I am back in my 2007 base with Moon and Tunes... I went to the dealer, the guy who "fixed" the paint screwed it up worse than it already was. They did not want to fix it again, as they had already painted a brand new car once, cant say that I blame them. I guess I got to drive t...

Keep us posted... I agree, this is not from a window left down in the rain...

Jake75 - I have looked at it that way, and I come up with the same thing you do... It just stings a little that I negotiated on what I thought was a perfect car (if there is such a thing) and then found a flaw. I think I will accept it assuming I see it tomorrow and you can not see any difference, a...

No, not really. The warrantly will apply from the date of purchase, regardless if I get a 2009 or 2010. Also, the 2010 is going to be quite a bit more expensive. I think the 2010 is out of the question for the time being, the real question is if the 2009 paint looks acceptabel to me, will it look ac...

Hey guys. Picked up my 2009 GT a little over 1 week ago. On my first fill up I thought I got some gas on the paint, so I went to wipe it off. No luck, it would not come off. Apparently gas either got on the car prior to paint, or shortly after paint and discolored the paint and left some run marks a...

Sorry man, that sucks. Maybe you will have fun putting it back together and possibly some cool mods while you are there?

I totally agree. That is why I said we will see how long this lasts. I honestly think that they did a nice job making the stereo look nice, since I have the GT Ihave the Monsoon sub and MP3 deck. I just do nto understand why they can not put a decent amplifier behind these things and allow more cont...

Crutchfield has always done pretty good by me in the past. I have a GMOS-04 from my 07 vibe, I guess that will not work with my new one... That si too bad, it was pretty expensive. I am kind of liking the new stereo, considering keeping it factory, we will see how long that lasts... Thanks for the r...

I am finding the same thing. Need one for an 09 GT buteverthing says "09 except GT". I agree, I do not see what the difference would be, but the manufacturers are saying that for some reason. I dont know why they would say that if there is not an issue... Anyone have one on a GT yet? I pic...

Kind of hard to do without the car... I will pick it up next week and post some then. Until then I guess we will have to wait

I am looking to install a pioneer head unit with Blue Tooth and XM in my new 2009 Vibe GT. I already have the head unit and XM tuner that I am removing from my 07. I saw some discussions on here about it but they look pretty involved, like upgrading the entire system. I want to keep the existing spe...

Hey guys, just wrote a contract on my new Vibe. 2009 GT Automatic in Carbon Gray Metallic. Showed 16 miles on the clock when I test drove it, probably has about 20 on it now. I pick it up next Saturday. Will post some pics.This is my second Vibe. First was a 2007 in Stealth. Got a GREAT deal on the ...
