There was a thread a while back where we actually saw pics of 'em. So they actually exist in some small quantities at least.I have yet to see a 2-tone 2005 yet though.

Yeah, I've seen them, but not factory paint. I don't think there was an option for the Vibe.

I just did a search though about 75 cars here in TN, EVERY SINGLE CAR had the Monotone Pkg.....I'll ask the guys at our Pontiac store tomarrow, but I'll bet the grey cladding is dead, or Special Order only.

If it is dead, that's a shame. So unlike GM, one would think they would kill the monotones because it costs more in paint!

I havn't seen an Avalance with cladding so far this season either....I think Gm has dropped cladding, the new design guru hates it. And the warranty expense is nuts!

I was led to believe it was going to be introduced late in the model year...

The body shop at Jim Causley Pontiac has like 10 of the two tone '05's in the back of the shop. They also had one on the lot on display. It even had the rocker panel side skirt things on it that I've been trying to get replaced for a while!!! So rest assured, they do exsist and they are plentiful around here

IMHO, 2005's look MUCH more tolerable in 2 tone!

I guess the reason I haven't seen any at my dealer is because they can't seem to sell the three Vibes they already have on the lot. Well, make that four, they got a Neptune monotone in about three weeks ago. The same three - satellite, salsa, lava have been on the lot for months now. I'd say the new Neptune that they added will be sitting there for a while as well.

Saw one today, 05 Base, White, in two-tone. Although it looked good, give me the montone any day.
