Finally own my VIBE!! **doing my happy dance**

Post by silver_vibe55 »

Drove home my new (used) 2004 Vibe last night: silver two-tone, manual 5-speed, tinted windows, and pretty much base after that. WOW I LOVE MY CAR!!! I've been in the market for a new car since February, knowing quite well that my ol' Buick LeSabre was going to be biting the dust any time. Well she lasted longer than I thought, dying on me this past weekend, but luckily I had already done my homework and decided, without a doubt, that my next car was going to be a Vibe! Found a good deal on a trade in at a Pontiac dealership nearby and picked her up for $7500. Not a bad deal for around these parts. Now I'm looking into doing a couple mods and necessary upgrades. Here's a pick of my baby at the dealership...

Welcome to the family! I just got my Vibe on Saturday and my wife and I are always trying to take the keys from each other. We both really like it. I think you will too!

Welcome, you'll find a few Trix owners like myself that wander here quite often. I have more postings here than on MO, lol.I'm assuming you spent $7500 after the trade in on the car. If not I'm gonna feel quite sad about my 05 XR AWD for 18k.
