New Vibe owner!

Post by throeplith »

Hey all,I just bought a used 2004 Pontiac Vibe GT. I've had a Kawasaki Vulcan for a while now and decided to get something a little more weatherproof and with a little more storage room. I started looking around for used cars, saw this one at Carmax, and loved it from the beginning. It needs a bit of interior work, but I'm gonna get it pristine! Looking forward to interacting with you all!Mike

Welcome. I just got an 05 Vibe myself last week. Seems like a pretty good vehicle. I put new front brake pads on it today and once I get some Toyota type T-IV transmission fluid, I'm changing that out. I think this site is great.

Booyah!!! Yeah, Sweet looking GT. Looks pristine outside, great find! Easy to bring the interior up to snuff on these Vibes. That's the nose I'd like to graft on to mine. How about a picture of your less weatherproof ride???

congrats on joining the club. If you need new parts for your interior to fix it up, the toyota matrix has the exact same interior accept the pontiac emblem on the steeringwheel. most parts with the matrix are interchangable accept the exterior body parts. there are more aftermarket parts for the matrix or listed under matrix than for the vibe.
