New owner with Stealth base Vibe

[NaNC3]

Hi there. I've been checking this forum out for the last few weeks since I am a new Vibe owner. Looks like this bunch is generally satisfied with their Vibes. Mine is base, stealth, monotone, auto, preferred pkg, sun & sound pkg, 16" alloy wheels, and ABS. Stealth (new for 2006) is a neat bluish-greenish-grayish metallic color which I picked from looking at the dealer's paint chip samples. (he had to find me a car with ABS). I'm a mom with two teenagers, one about to go off to college. I wanted a car that we could all be happy with for zipping around town as well as hauling stuff to college. With gas prices the way they are I decided our new car had to get good gas mileage. There are very few Vibes in my area, very few Pontiacs at all, so I wasn't considering the Vibe until I re-read some of my Consumers Reports. I think that both GM and my local Pontiac dealer are doing nothing at all to promote this great little car; I don't get it. Anyway I've got a really neat looking little (but practical) car that is unlike all the SUVs around here.

Congratulations and Welcome! I noticed a lot more G6's than Vibes here. In fact, as soon as we bought my Mom's Frosty Vibe, loved it so much, I had to order my Neptune Vibe.

Welcome to Genvibe. I saw that new color a few weeks ago when I had to visit my local pontiac dealership. It is a nice color. You don't see that color on any other car, at least not that I've seen. I think you will really enjoy your vibe.

welcome to the great family of vibes! youll find out every thing you need to know bout this car and what it has to offer.yea its great for hauling things to college, cause i just did that this year after being in colege for two years now. it was this year when i moved to an apartment.

Cool, congrats. I saw a Stealth one out on the road the other day, it looked really good. That's becoming my second most favorite color to see a Vibe in besides Neptune, of course, which will never lose first place. Glad to see someone else thinks it looks bluish-greenish-grayish, that's exactly how I've described it before. Welcome aboard, I'm sure you'll enjoy the car.

Welcome to the NCyclopedia of Vibe! And thanks for posting a pic right away!Regarding lack of advertising...I'm finally seeing a few Pontiac TV ads in my area touting Vibe and G6 fuel mileage numbers. I guess the fact that May '06 Vibe sales were down 32% from a year ago IN THE MIDST OF THE HIGHEST FUEL PRICES IN YEARS finally got someone's attention at Pontiac!
