i had a cdrom w/ a flash-based, watered-down version of the owners manual. i do have to admit that it was a nice way to gawk at my new car when i couldn't be out driving it (i barely beat a hail storm to my house the night i picked my vibe up).

It's a slick audio/data cd. If anyone wants a copy, let me know.

I got a few copies of this CD from one of the Pontiac Marketing people last year. They said it was OK to post online so I'll see if I can get it uploaded and functional from the GVC website this week.I believe they started giving owners this CD from the 2004 model year and up.

I've got it available online. It's a hybrid cd, so I can't just rip an ISO file... So I've made MP3s out of all the audio tracks and the PC part of the disc is just a 2MB Flash with basic Vibe information and accessories.I zipped them into two files - audio and flash.Grab them here:Audio22.4MBFlash 1.5MBI'll see how well my hosting account holds up, I get 5GB of transfer a month for $4... They may not be available for a super long time

It can be downloaded here:
http://www.genvibe.com/html/misc/vibecd.zip [33.1 MB, sorry ]Depending on your UnZipping software (for Windows, I use WinZip (it's free)), make sure you extract the files using the original folder names so the files are placed in the proper directory structure in the extraction folder you choose.For WinZip, I've attached an image below that shows the option that needs to be checked to be sure the folder structure is kept intact during extraction. This option is usually enabled in WinZip by default anyway.I've tested this on Windows-based PC's at this time and the .zip file appears to work fine. After extraction, just run the VIBE.EXE program at the root of the directory and it should be good.
