Vibe is a sports car?

Post by pmh013 »

According to MSN, the Vibe is sporty. Then again, this is MSN. http://autos.en.msn.ca/Browse/win_4019749.asp

Right, but on msn.ca, where I started out from, it says "11-sporty 2-door coupes" and that's the article I got. See here soon, 'cause they change the page every day: http://ca.msn.com/ It's at the top centre of the page under "Looking Good"Hello, MSN? Have you got your socks off, 'cause I think you're havin' some troubles counting.

quote:Yes, you are right. How do they see the Vibe a "2 Door" ?? I guess you count all four side doors as 1 door, and the hatch as door 2.
YES!I still visit GenVibe periodically. I have not forgotten about my "original" family over here!

My vibe is only the base model with auto. But the way I drive it makes it "sporty". It definitely needs more low RPM punch, but get the revs up and it'll get going pretty dang fast. And when you look at the stock tailpipe compared to every other 4-banger out there you KNOW they designed it for more HP and torque than the rated numbers. Come on supercharger! KSNeptune
