#1 Great Warranty! #2 Versatility, My wife and I can bring two of our boys (oldest two drive their own cars now) and the dog! Allie likes the rear window.#3 Handled very well during the test drive from Raynham to Taunton. #4 Looks! I really like the way the 09 Vibe GT looks, and the leather trimmed interior is great, I've got a long 50 mile commute each way, free ground effects--- cool! I actually liked the Vibe in all the model years. I ALMOST bought one in 03, but I ended up needing big bucks for tuition.#5 Trade in for my 07 Honda Element. I liked my Element, but the sunroof was in the wrong place, gas mileage when stuck in traffic dropped to 18mpg. When there's traffic I averaged 22-24mpg not bad for a vehicle that size, but in the Metro Boston West area during commute time you are going to hit traffic. When the cost of fuel hit $4.80/gallon it got me motivated to trade in the Element.#6 Great Sounding stock stereo to help me deal with the long commute! Ah.. my IPOD works with it.

I've got to agree, that color suits the new styling very well. In general, though, they seem to have picked good shades for the new look--not something you can count on from GM.

Nice! What color is that? White or Silver. What do you think about that roof rack? I got the 09 GT in red. No roof rack, but I plan on adding something for bikes & cargo.
