GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Hi all,We're enjoying the incredible weather here in Dallas for the 2nd Annual GenVibe SouthCentral Rally! Great turnout, if not in quantity, certainly in spirit!We heard this morning that Jason (damronjr) had to back out due to a bad alternator...hope he's able to get it fixed.Thanks to Sewell Pontiac for getting us the site, feeding us, washing some our cars (!) and being such gracious hosts.We're still looking for a group shot spot, but following are some pics from the event.

Yeah, I posted everything in the original Meet thread. REALLY pissed me off thatit had to happen the day before the meet! What sucks is I'm only about 25mi away, but no way to get there! Looks like you had a good turnout, wish I could be there! Now I gotta wait until next week for my parts get here that my wife just sent today even though I asked her to do it 3 or more wks ago. Until then I have 0 transportation!Here's a pic of mine from just 1min ago wishing it was there with you guys!

They did, however, have a quite a few no-shows, and I won't mention any names! It was cool to at least get to meet everyone and see their Vibes even if it was in the dark. Definite BIG thanks to Walter for making the trek all the way out to get me just so I could meet everyone! Thanks to everyone for dinner as well, looks like I got a lot of paying back to do someday! Don't forget to send me your addy, Cole! Celebration restaurant was great! Guess it looks like I still didn't get any of my other mods done, and no Pontiac Performance mag or give-away goodies for me, but I guess you kind of have to be there for the meet for that stuff! lol (Damned Vibe! ) I hope we can have more meets like we did in SoCal, even if they are Vibe/Matrix/Corolla/Celica meets!

Wow! Looked like a great meet. Nice day and great pics. Love the smoked headlight covers, Zuben.

youve got an PM. and you can ask Glenn (Zuben) if he can send you some of the stuff left over and those mags.

he also got the tails smoked too....damn i knew we for got to take a pic of something.

First things first, we (Jackson and Ida) want to thank Sewell Pontiac for everything they did for us. We had a great spot on the lot and the food was wonderful. A big thanks to Glenn, Cole and anyone else that helped to put this meet together. We had a great time and are looking forward to coming back next year. It was so nice to finally put names with faces and to see everyones rides in living color. Jason, glad you finally made it. Hope to see you and your vibe next year. Hope everyone makes it home safe.Till next timeJackson and Ida

Man, I wish I could've been there. I'm glad everyone had fun! I'm gonna be there next year!

A few pics from the meet:1) Checking out the raffle items! Those red boxes between SuperSpeedWagon and AlamoVibe are the 4 die-cast 1:18 scale Vibe GT-Rs that Sewell gave away. Definitely one of the hottest giveaways!2) The Matrix guys3) Lined up for the group shot: That's a lot of Vibes & Matrixes!
