It looks pretty darn good for having 434,959.7 miles (700,000 KMs)! That's awesome! I hope my Vibe lasts that long, although it would take me a long time to reach that mileage considering I'm only averaging ~10,000 miles a year :P!

My ramen vibe is halfway there and still going strong! Love seeing these marathon vibes!

And carrie's right. Your brother-in-law's vibe looks great

Does it have some sort of clear bra? I can't see any paint chips. Looks amazing!

Nope there are some little chips but the grey paint hides them really well . Nothing major though , if you look at the roof line by the top of the windshield you will see some rock damage .
Oh and probably as well I hate people in front of me lolol . I tend to spend a lot of time in the left lane .
I did however lose a windshield to a big piece of pavement kicked up from a logging truck in Pictou a couple of years ago . That was fun lol , the windshield you see there is # 3 . I tend to get a lot of little chips in the window over time . you would be surprised what little dust particulars will do over time to your windshield .
Thanks everyone for the comments . I really enjoyed driving that car everyday . And I love driving my GT ALOT MORE :D
