Sighting in Illinois - Anyone here?

Post by DiveNut »

Saw nice looking Vibe filling up at the Mobil on Washington & Bailey in Naperville. Salsa, Spoiler on roof and mid hatch, lowered? maybe exhaust, 17's.. Looked sweet I was in line for the carwash, in my Abyss (well actuall "rocksalt grey" LOL), debadged, pretty plain looking Vibe ... Caught my eye cuz there are not many modded Vibes around here.

That sounds like the one I have seen in and around Woodridge along with an abyss with the top and mid gate spoiler as well. Most of the Vibe's in the area that have the spoiler package come from Dan Wolf Pontiac in Lagrange. Here's a pic. of my '04 silver.

(As soon as it's warm enough out to wash it again.) Though my Vibe is very "plain" looking. I'll have to keep an eye out for you...

From looking at your mods I'm sure your Vibe would absolutely smoke mine. I was going to get the supercharger but I am planning on buying a house so 2k in the bank seemed to make more sense to my wife.

Plus, there is no tax break for Supercharging the Vibe Good luck with the house hunting, you'll most likely be able to get a great deal in today's market (totally a buyer's market). Not to mention they lowered the interest rates again today. My wife and I are in the process of re-financing to take advantage of the rates. Will allow us to save some cash for my kids college funds....and maybe a few more mods for the Vibe

This is definitely a great time to buy and unfortunately I was planing on buying next year but if we have scrap by for a while then the Vibe will have to go.
