Hi,No offense intended but this forum is just a tad silly, I'd have to list 15 -20 or more sighting every day around here! Quite numerous. Didn't realize they were an oddity in other locations!If we were listing classic Firebird or Camaro or another car that is unusual to see on the highways it would make sense.Dave

I can't speak for other, but I've always wondered if the vibe I mentioned was ~MRVIBE2006~ Simply bc that's the only Vibe I ever stare at in my city.

it's pretty rare seeing a vibe in my area. in the 6 months that i've owned my vibe, i've only seen 5 or 6 09's and maybe 10-15 of the 03-08's.

Okay first off I'll admit, in the most politically correct way possible, I'm a retard, I always forget my phone has a camera, that said, I spotted a Lava two tone with Hawaii plates, at the Mc Donalds drive thru in Onawa, Iowa yesterday evening around 6:30 or so. It had an Amato dealership decal on the hatch and a Cadillac/ Amato license plate frame. I think this clearly takes the Farthest from home, Vibe I have seen.

^^ We don't have "Amato" so that Lava was bought on the mainland, shipped here, then shipped back. Don't we have the fugliest plates you've ever seen? LOL

I requested the thread title to be changed to add "unusual" to the "Vibe Sightings" which was the original intent of this thread.

I searched for Amato Cadillac and everything came up Milwaukee, WI. I wonder what they got for mileage coming across the Pacific. lolHPL, I don't know about Fugly, but I'm glad our plates don't have Rainbows on them. LOL

I'm bringing this thread back to life! (EDIT: Oops...HowdyGrizzly beat me to that by ONE minute!)Saw the Abyss again, it has a chrome license plate frame with script writing 'Vibe' on it on the back, it was in the parking lot of the hardware store in my zip code this afternoon. I'd have left a note, but had just a pen and no paper in the car, so will be doing a search for that thread about the GenVibe flyers, print some out and leave some in the car for when I see it again, and any others I see.

Spotted Vibe at the old Dartmouth observatory in Hanover New Hampshire. The plate number has been changed to protect the innocent Vermonter. Student or staff? In the last available parking space.

Once again, I saw the very friendly people in the ABYSS. Same scenario...I was going out of the same parking lot, they were going in. I flashed the "V" and the lady smiled again, a guy was driving this time. In my complex: must be a new neighbor...2-tone WAVE. CA plates. Tint, rack on roof. Only a matter of time before I catch you both and recruit you

Yah, that would be kinda creepy if I went walking around my neighborhood snapping pics of people's cars... maybe I'll catch it at the mailbox one of these days. Plenty of Vibes in my area. Also in my complex, an identical 06 Neptune, our other phase has the salsa with the graphics on the doors, and the next street has a 2-tone Neptune and a lava. But I can't walk that far anymore LOL.

I think the idea of this thread is to "spot other Vibes" in unusual or interesting places... not really too creepy. We're not stalking or anything like that. Maybe just a little Vibe obsessed, though!
