Hi all. I'm new here...

Post by jayafisher »

Hi all. Just got my new (used) '03 Vibe last week. Initially I was a little apprehensive about choosing the Vibe but, after 1 week, I am really starting to like this car. My previous car, a 95 Ford Contour, was in need of some major repairs and I couldn't justify sinking too much cash into a nine year old car. I am really looking forward to adding some performance parts to my Vibe and seeing what you all are doing to yours. L8r.... Ps. Does anyone know if 03's came with no badging? Mine has none except on the grille.

Oops, I have apparently committed a cardinal sin--I've been on here a couple months now and have no pics posted of my Vibe. But everyone's here is so cool--all tricked out and stuff--and mine is just basic so far--I have no money for any mods right now!
