Wondering?

Does anyone wonder if there is a "virgin" Vibe on a dealer's lot somewhere in the world?

a search on cars.com for New Pontiac Vibe's shows eight new 2009 Vibes, (with new car prices), six of them at Andrew Toyota, in Glendale WI I'd recommend calling them before going to buy one though, the listings might be old.

Those are the ones I found several weeks ago. They don't have them listed on their Toyota website as used or new cars. I ran a carfax record check on several of the VINs and they all came back with like 8 -12 records, so they were most likely sold and the dealer never deleted the ad on cars.com. It would be neat to find one, but I think that all ended when GM offered the dealers $7K each to clear them out to rentals or fleets back at the end of the year 2009. They wanted the warranties to start on all of them.

I got my 2009 in Jan. 2009 with $6,500 in reductions below invoice2,000 GM Dealer incentive3,000 GM Card Rebate (upped from actual $1,200)500 rebate1,000 loyalty rebateso I don't feel too bad.But if anyone scored $7,000 under invoice on a 2010 they should be very happy. I have a feeling that the dealers were not so generous as to pass all of that along - supply vs.demand still rules. And there were very few Vibes left at that point in time since production stopped in late August as I remember..

I also like to ask about all leftovers. Are they exported to third world countrys and sold as new cars? I always see a lot of same model cars and trucks still sitting on big dealer's lots when the new year models should be coming in.
