newbie saying hi

Post by good vibe-rations »

Just bought an 04 last week. It's a base two tone white without the power or sound packages. I will be sharing this car with my seventeen year old and soon my fifteen year old Traded in my 99 Jeep GC for better gas milage and cheaper insurance. I got the first but not the other. Something about a newer car cost more than an older 4x4. It's only fitting that I should buy a Vibe as I also have an 01 Montana and 69 Firebird 400 convertible and a 72 Camaro. I'm looking forward to learning from this group about mods to do. Currently looking at 16" wheels to replace the wheel covers, ENKEI DMS?, and tinting the windows. Thanks , hope to spending some time on here.Brian

Howdy, welcome to GVC and I have one comment. If your not going to lower your car, may I suggest instead of 16's you go with 17's? I think you'll like the look alot better. If your planning on dropping your car later then the 17's will look ok, or you can get 18's later on.

welcome aboard.i'm actually very happy w/ the stock pontiac 17" wheels, but unless somebody here has an old set for sale, they're definitely not cheap from the dealer...

My mom bought this car for the same reasons but also for cargo. Then I got my liscense and took it over. Now it belongs to me Your kids are gonna take it from you too, especially if you show them this website lol. Nice cars btw, minus the Montana.
