It can't be good that the first really impressive Vibe concept was also the last. This does not bode well for the future, which I guess is right in line with the model cancelations happening in the next couple of years.

yea, i am kinda disappointed that it was roped off tho as were all the cars in the tuner section but i am pretty sure that its an 03 model bc of how the hood meets the top of the front bumper. i doubt that its worth more than 30k. but i was able to sit in the 40k+ bmw's, benz and a few others. i like the top spoiler and how they over came the issue with the roof rails, i wish the factory offered that

i find difficult to see them bringing out a 03 -04 model to a new car show.they never had the intensions of mamking this gtr. i still love that hood.

Seems like the "brains" at GM (and other car companies) do leave a lot of money on the table. Selling a custom car hood as an option would appear to me to be a no brainer. Also never unfetstood why some selection of premium tires were not offered as an extra cost option.
