that NBA Matrix is hard on the eyeswild doors thoughGreat photos and thanks for the home page updates

[ArcsVibe]

Have fun Nick and take lots of pictures!!

The orange Trix is from here in San Diego. I know the guy(Nick and Becca) and have seen the car in person many times. The interior dash is all covered in CF, the front bumper, top of the car, and rear hatch are all covered in CF. It has 20" all around, and just got the doors from like 45% to 90%! It is a bad-@$$ Trix! Custom paint, custom ICE, it is a phenomenal car!

[BOZACK]

Nice pics. I want to go. It would be cool to have one of our members car in the show one year.

Nice pics! Where's the Vibes?! Seems like this year's theme in Matrix show cars is "Doors for taking chunks out of the garage ceiling."

[4X4CHICHI]

the guy who purchases wheels for the place where I bought my rims actually picked them out for me and stocked his shelf with them from last year's sema show. it is the cat daddy of all after market stuff for automobiles.

[ragingfish]

Nick, any G6 show cars?

If so, that could be why Psychovibe has disappeared...he was basically just here to sell the body kit from what it looked like to me, and the Vibe was more or less just a commercial showcar. I could be wrong though.

I could be wrong though.I'm not positive, but I know they were showing their Vibe at the GM headquarters. http://www.street-graffiti.com...5.htmOverall though, Vibe turnout has been ZERO.. but I still have a couple more halls to visit before making that final decision. Only the 2 Matrix so far have been seen. I'll update more during the week.Last year's SEMA Show was impressive just due to the Vibe turnout. Maybe they're waiting to see what happens to the Vibe for the '07 supposed redesign.

[NSimkins]

I have just uploaded more photos, especially ones of the G6, Solstice, Cobalt, and others from GM. Check them out in the gallery.Look for the titles and descriptions (specifications) for these new pics to appear later today.

Well low and behold, there was actually a Vibe at SEMA this year! Phoenix Gold had 2 Vibes present at their display in the Audio/Electroinics hall. See pics of these Vibes in the gallery.Unfortunately it looks like that is the only Vibe representation present at this show. I've just about covered the entire complex overall.You may remember that Phoenix Gold had a Vibe at last year's show - gallery

[Mavrik]

looks like your having a lot of fun.

[BOZACK]

I love the Caddy. That is my dream car. But that black and white super charged Solstice is gorgeous.

[GMJAP]

Nice shots of the PG Vibes. Anything interesting in the interior of the red one? Didn't see any interior pics ('cept the cargo area).

[BOZACK]

Ya, I'd like to see the interior of both Vibes. The blue console looks interesting.

[ZubenElGenubi]

It occurred to me late last night that the NBA Trix was converted to a coupe, so I did a quick & dirty photochop to see what that might look like.Hmmm.....

Didn't see any interior pics ('cept the cargo area).The red PG Vibe was fairly stock inside except for the rear hatch area (pictured). The black Vibe was the one decked out with the video/audio. I believe that was the same black Vibe (however it looked a little different last year) from PG if you look at last year's SEMA coverage.

Too bad the Vibe/Matrix representation has droppped so much as compared to last year. I was hoping to see more for both of them.I suppose it will increase when a new Vibe/Matrix model redesign comes out.

It does seem that many SEMA exhibitors will take fairly new vehicle models from that year and highlight them. Since the Vibe has remained, for the most part, fairly unchanged, I'm suspecting if any major redesign, we should see them pop back up at that following show.This year, the main focus among exhibitors have been the sport compact segment, mainly with the new Civic Si.

[scherry2]

was this there?

They are pretty popular here this year, so it's hard to get a decent picture without someone being in the way. Also uploaded a few more misc. vehicle photos to the Others gallery.

[NascarXprt]

the car i really liked was the Energy Suspension Solstice. it has good clean lines, nice low fast profile, and vwery nice aggresive styling to group the whole car together.

[BOZACK]

That Solstice is my favorite too. But I do have to admit, the HHR looks good in two tone paint.

[Toasted7]

If she comes with the car... I'll take two.

Must be a collaboration between the 2 companies to try to market their stuff as RKSport is sucking right now when it comes to the Vibe.
