I'll have to go with your own quote in the rude people thread, where you said "I like my car alot so I really don't give a **** whether you do or not!"

but still, How do they get a Granny Car out of the vibe? A vibe would (to me) be so unappealing to someone in their 70's!

Im glad they got rid of the 4 door Sunfire, (It's still available in Canada) because it's such a small car anyways, Why would you want it in 4 doors? Kind of like a 4 door Corvette. The 2 door Grand Prix also bugged me, It's too big to be a coupe! IMO. But some liked it I guess, Each to their own!

nissan is having the a problem but to a greater extent w/their element....people in their late 50's and older love them because of their spacious layout and ease of access...i see most people here driving vibs are in their mid to late 30's thru 40's...except for trdvibe!

I had 2 older ladies (around 70) ask me about my vibe. they said it was a cute car and they would like one. so I sent them to the local dealer. 18 to 80 GENERATION V !!!!!

I still get a lot of people telling me it's a nice looking sporty car. i just grin and nod because it is.i think mine looks anything BUT a granny car. then again, granny cars don't get pulled over by the cops.

Then the other few Vibe drivers I've seen tend to be around their 40s.Later,

Its weird, I know, but my mother in law (in her 70's) like my vibe because it is verly easy to get in and out of. You do not really to climb "up" into it, like you do with an SUV, and you don't have to bend over and duck down, like you do with other cars. She really digs the seats too! they are sooooo comfy!As far as "granny car" goes, in terms of looks, some nimrods only see "wagon", and think the worst!
