(removed)! Quote »I think VIBE is the only car worth buying from pontiac (or from GM even, except corvettes and new generation cadilacs). After all it's got toyota engine and I'm sure most of toyota quality (matrix). With GM card ernings to use, I would consider vibe if I ever have to purchase a new car. Unfortunately, I almost never buy a new car. Too much money need to be spent.Boy, I could have a field day with this one, but in the end, I would just be knocking VIbes, so I shall refrain. Well knocking MY vibe more than anything but still.

I thought they were playing nice. The Vibe guy and maybe some here didn't get the 12V VIBE-rator joke. The Elantra GT is a nice car until resale.

Yeah, I caught the battery jokes. I learned that very early into Vibe ownership. Oh, those vibrator jokes... Maybe that's why there is so much debadging going on, I never thought about that. In hindsight, I probably should have done the same too. lol!The GT's not a bad car. It was on my shopping list before some weird twist of fate landed the keys to this Vibe in my hands...

So they're making fun of the Vibe on a Hyundai forum... Yeah, those Hyundais make great cars when it's time to sell 'em...

Now this is a really funny one and I am glad i came across it. The whole Vibe-rator thing is part of my daily life. I am a Passion Party sales consultant aka FUN parties for women so I see and sell vibrators on the daily. It's a whole lotta fun and The Vibe fits in great with this lifestyle. I do remember when i was at the car lot looking at the Vibe I sent a friend a text message and told him I was getting a Vibe and of course he thought I was talking about the kind that take double A batteries. Boy he was surprised when he seen my new car. LOL!!

I kinda gave my friend the same looks when he was talking about getting a knob and wanting to see what felt good in his hands... turns out he was talking about shift knobs. people back home still bug me about driving the orange vibrator, but thats fine.

This is pretty good for a chuckle... I found this on N-body.net. Obviously though, those guys aren't too knowledgable of our transportation appliances. Quote »Actually, after racing somwhere with my friends, the winner has to drive the Vibe in the next race as a handicap because it's so slow.That's funny.
