GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Hello all, just recently became a new Vibe owner.About 6 months ago I decided it was about time to replace my old Corolla. At 1st I was looking at buying a Escape/Tribute SUV.But after a couple months, stumbled across the Matrix.I had never seen the Matrix before and thought it could be my next car.After a bit of research found out the Matrix had a twin, the Vibe.I had never seen nor heard of the Vibe, at least that is what I thought.The Vibe definitely looks a lot nicer than the Matrix.I decided to call my 2 brothers and ask them if they knew about the Vibe. One of my brothers told me that he has owned a Vibe for the past 4 years. It is strange how I never took notice to my brothers car, and yet that is what I decided to buy. Now both of us own Vibes.My other brother has a Pontiac Montana.

Welcome --- nice choice in color Mine used to look so nice and scratch/dent free

Welcome to GenVibe! Congrats on the new(to you) VibeFunny Story! Is your brother on here?What year Vibe did you get?

Nice looking Vibe. yeah, its funny that way with cars, I didn't pay attention to them either before the GF started looking at them. But lucky for me, I got the Vibe, she got the Mazda5.

Actually my Vibe came with a small dent, you can see it in my sig.It is located in the rear quarter panel.It is a 2005 model and my brother has a 2003 (he bought his new)I got mine from a Honda used car lot.They sold it to me for a lot less because of the dent.Oh and my brother lives in Tulsa, and is not a member here.

Yay another Neptune! Welcome and congrats to the wise Pontiac family!

Neptune is DEFINITELY the way to go! woot woot. lol welome to the fam.

neptune goodalso, I really hadn't paid much attention to Vibes before ours, our neighbor had one and when our car got totalled I asked him how he liked it.

I've always thought the Vibe looks soooo much better than the Matrix. So much so, that I was ONLY looking for Vibes when I bought mine a few weeks ago ('05 Platinum, 5-spd, w/appearance package). I didn't even consider a Matrix.BTW, the blue looks great. I tend to prefer lighter colors, though, like silver, white, gold, etc. just because they're easier to keep clean and cooler in the NM sun.
