I'm new here -- just found out I'll have my Vibe in two days!!

Post by redhotvibe »

I'm so excited!! It looked like they weren't going to be able to find my Vibe, but good news came while I was already defecting to Toyota (build your own Matrix online when the call came)! I was so in love with my Vibe that I was almost in tears from the thought of not getting it (I don't have a car right now so waiting the 3-4 months would have been totally impossible). My Vibe is lava base, auto trans, moon & tunes, power package, ABS and 16 in alum wheels..... I don't know how our Canadian friends can stand the wait... I think I'm gonna go crazy these next two days!!!!!!!!Thanks for being here; I've learned soooo much reading all your posts the last few weeks! Now, I'm officially a member!!!Beverly

Welcome aboard Beverly! Before you know it, you will be driving your Vibe soon! Be lucky you only had to wait 2 days.. as you said, some people have been waiting for months.Did you get the two-tone or monotone style?

Hi guys! Thanks for the friendly welcome!Mine is two-tone; I think the lava really *pops* against the cladding. I'm learning to like the monotone with it, too. The dealer just called with the VIN -- it'll be there in a half an hour!!!! My sales guy is going to look it over and give me a call in the morning, to give me the go-ahead... I couldn't access this site all afternoon and it was killing me! Noone understands just how much I love my Vibe like you guys understand!!!Beverly

Congrats! I agree, the Lava color is sweet. That was my second choice because the '93 Sunbird I replaced was the exact same color. Since my other two cars were silver, I wanted the Vibe to be silver also.

Thanks Jesse!The good news is that my beautiful bright red Vibe is out in my garage tonight!! Unfortunately, I had to drive it home during a MAJOR downpour/lightening/thunderstorm in the DARK so I couldn't arouse the appropriate *envy* from my neighbors! I can't wait to show it off!!Jesse- As a native Michigander, I've always felt myself to be an honorary Canadian, and just recently returned from a wonderful trip to Montreal, Quebec, and Toronto, three cities I used to visit every year. What a great trip - wish I'd had my Vibe then!
