It is? You mean, it does. It's not like we're going to see any surprises. We've seen it already.

Are the new Vibe and Trix co-developed by GM & Toyota like the old ones?

Already revealed on http://www.pontiac.comSame as the Matrix, features-wise, except there are more options included standard than with the Matrix. Check it out. From the intro and music you can tell they're pushing that certain demographic!

If so, and there ends up being turbo/SC options.......I may just tell the future WRX to get bent and get one of these.

I kinda agree... I actually really like the new Trix's rear window, too bad they didn't do somethin like that. The rear window shown in the pic above is just.... blah.... its too squared I also don't really like the fact that the reverse lights are integrated into the same assembly as the tails. I liked the look of the reverse lights on the bumper like i have now....

Ya, the rear end kinda looks like the first-gen Mitsubishi Outlander. Not liking it. It seems like the rear bumper is raised up and that's why the window is weird. It also means you can see most of the muffler from the back, not just the tip. I don't like that look. And certain angles on the drive-by video gave me a glimpse of a van......I just don't know. They say the AWD will have the 2.4l but from the video it looks to have the 1.8l.

Um..."It's the Vibe, y'all" This is the worst poetry slam I've ever seen...I'm embarrassed.Maybe it's the mix, but the audience reaction reminds me of the infamous Britney Spears performance at the VH1 awards.
