Getting ready to buy

Post by bishc21 »

Hi everyone! I will be purchasing an 04 Vibe soon.. I've been reading thru the site and think its great Its been very informative and I hope to contribute my thoughts once I'm behind the wheel of my own. The only hold-up right now is the release of the supercharger for the base 5-speed. I'll let you all know what happens when it happens!

Congrats on your decision, and welcome! I am pretty new also. It is a great site!Are you waiting for the supercharger before you buy? I have a base automatic, but I am in Canada, and I don't think we can even get the S/C here yet. I love the car anyhow -it's my baby.

Yeah, I want to purchase them at the same time. Easier that way. Shouldn't be too long. I'm working with a great dealership (its all online so-far so do pressure from the showroom floor! )

Yeah your doing the same thing I did cept I couldn't wait for the super charger so I bought the 04 base Vibe 5spd already heh. I was given a piece of paper with part number's labour time and final costs of the super charger from a girl in my parts department a few months ago. I know I did not throw that valuble piece of information away but you'd think I can find it? I have turned everything upside down! The information was however for the automatics but still!And apparently the girl in parts did not give me a copy, but had given me the original... looks like I'm SOL on this one.
