GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

My vibe has been great to me. I made it to 86k with no significant wear and tear and was up until this point the best car Ive owned. However, I unique car presented itself to me and after some significant haggling I was able to get out the door 10k off msrp. MSRP for this bad boy was $30,200. It has every option you can have for this car including the moonroof. Without further adieu, my 2013 Ford Focus ST.

No. I didnt park this in a handicap spot. This was at the dealer and was where they parked it for me to come out and take it home. I am currently driving it in ecomode and it is PLENTY fast, however there is little button and when pressed one time it turns on sport mode which basically allows you to chirp the tires in 1st, 2nd and a little wheel hop going into 3rd. However, if you push and hold this little button it goes into GOD mode. A menu pops up on this digital readout that asks if you are sure you want to do this. Then says it should be used for trackuse only and not reccomended for daily use. I dont have the balls to drive this mode yet. By the way all this and in ecomode I get 32-34mpg.

Nice buy

**jealous**

Nice find! Love the color, too.
I admit that I drool every time I see an ST, but being retired, I just don't have money to invest in a car right now...

And of course, the Focuses (Foci?) don't have this great GenVibe community!

So what did you do with your '09 Vibe?

Beautiful car! And a smokin' hot deal! Where are you located and why the huge discount?
I hope you'll start a new thread in "the others" telling us all about your new ride and update it as necessary.
Don't forget to properly break-in your new baby. Congrats!

I traded the vibe at the ford dealer. They gave me $6500, and I only owed $1500 so that started me at 5000 off. My vibe held its value quite well but I had even sweeter deal on that one. I got my 09 in 2010 with 25k miles for $12k.

The ST is actually smaller than the vibe. Plus it is much lower of a ride. The hatch area is smaller as well but not by much. My wife says we will definitely need a roof rack. We frequently travel with 1 child and 2 dogs.

But when its just me this car is just awesome. I love it!

Any chance a moderator can move this post to The Others section please?

Even though its not a Vibe, you should start a thread for this car and keep us updated on what you do with it, like Camogirl did with her Sonic.

"after some significant haggling I was able to get out the door 10k off msrp. MSRP for this bad boy was $30,200."

Your later post said you got a net $5,000 credit trading in your Vibe ($6,500 less $1,500 owed). So you really didn't get a $30,200 msrp vehicle for $20,200; still not a bad deal. A Ford Focus priced at $30,2000 still boggles my mind.
