Hi Newb here.

Post by st_pinetree »

I just bought an 03 Vibe GT, Has a Magnaflow exhaust. Only mod (so far) other than a drop in K&N air filter. I've learned a lot through this forum as I researched my new gas saving car. I commute about 90 miles a day so I'm looking forward to driving a fun car while still getting decent mileage. Although, I must admit, its going to be hard to keep the RPM's under that magic 6500 mark. This is a hoot of a little car to drive at full throttle. Pics attached.
