I just bought a GM Certified Satellite 2004 Vibe with 20,300 miles, automatic, alloys, monotone package, power package and cargo mat today. I pick it up on Friday and will try to post more after driving it all weekend.

Oops!no problem, i was gonna say i thought the 03/04 was still satellite and the 05 platinum, but couldn't remember for sure. it's not big deal, you can be super simple and just say silver. lol.
