Aloha!

Post by HawaiianVibe05 »

I just got my 05 Vibe last Thursday. I personally was tired of paying the added costs of owning a German turbo vehicle, so I traded my 00 beetle in. It was sad to say goodbye as it brought great memories, but I am ready for the new ones ahead in the Vibe.I got the powere pack and moons and tunes. I only wish that I had the multi disc player. Oh well! It's been a fun ride so far!

Welcome to Genvibe. I am sure you will find the Vibe will carry surfboards easier than the Beetle. That is if you surf. I am assuming.

Aloha to you HawaiiVibe! I am on Oahu out in Ewa Beach. I, too, got a Platinum with the same features you got. Where did you get yours?For your info, there are 3 Walmarts on Oahu (Kunia, Mililani and Ala Moana). There are also Walmarts on the Big Island, Maui and Kauai.Looking forward to making new friends here as I did among my fellow beetle owners.Enjoy the ride! I'm getting use to sitting up high!

If you're planning on getting the windows tinted you could get them to put a strip in the front. That would look good and be functional.
