Vibe w/ flames

Post by Five_By_Five »

The Pontiac dealer that's located closest to me here in Richmond VA has an '05 Vibe parked out front for display that's blue (I think) with lighter blue flames on the front part of the hood coming from the front fascia. If anyone's interested in seeing this, I could snap some pics and post them.

The dealership took it off the front display area but it was still in the lot. A salesperson approached me and took me to where the Vibe had been relocated. We walked around discussing the current deals they had going on (because I'm interested in getting a Vibe someday in the near future). He was kind enough to allow me to snap a couple shots of the Vibe and was curious about this website. He said he had plans to check out the website...He mentioned that the dealership itself had added the flames to the hood for a car/racing event that was in town (probably a Nascar event at the Richmond International Raceway). Anyway, without further ado...here are the pics...btw, this thing's going for about 18,000...should I go for it? I really like the 03/04 front styling better, but this looks pretty cool...idunno...

I like it a lot (but I live in Quebec. ) What options does it have? 5 speed or auto etc?

I don't think the colors look too bad but the flames should have been extended on the fenders a bit more and onto the front half of the front doors. but that's my own oppinion and that's what I have to say

I agree. It was a good try, but the flames do just abruptly end. They should have extended it towards the doors more.

I'm not sure what options it had...I can't read anything from the pictures I took.

yeah, I'll agree with others, looks like crap lol. Would be better in different, probably darker colours. and not so abrupt on the ending, should extend towards the back of the Vibe, and further up the hood.
