[sammybear311]

Hey all...........Samantha here (call me Sam), I bought my 2005 Vibe GT about 4 months ago and just found this site. Crazy huh? So what can you all tell me about this great car (so far) that I bought. Any advice on anything??? Help me out here guys. I am from Gladstone area in NKC, has anyone from my area thought of getting together with other VIBERS and have a meet or something cool?

First of all welcome to genvibe! Glad you decided to join us. You bought yourself a great little car I don't drive a GT but can tell you that this is one of the best cars I've ever purchased I will let the GT drivers tell you more. Welcome again!!

Welcome!The GT is the peppy little vibe, I too only own a base vibe but the car is great! there are some of us that have meets but they are never by Minnesota so I can never go you should get some goof info from the GT drivers, if you have any other questions feel free to ask!

You will find alot of info withthe search function onthis forum. If there is a question it has probably been asked and answered but feel free to ask away. we love questions.

Welcome to the Encyclopedia of Vibe! We love pictures here, so please post some when you get a chance!I, too am a Base Vibe owner, (although I have driven and 'ALMOST' bought a GT) but two GT issues are frequently discussed on GenVibe:1. Yes, you should use PREMIUM fuel only.2. GT clutches are frequently subject to early wear/slipping/failure in the first 30-40,000 miles. Most GT owners are NOT getting them replaced under warranty because they're told it's 'normal wear & tear' by dealer service departments.As suggested, try using the SEARCH function to find out more about these topics, or just post your questions. We're pretty friendly and helpful around here!
