Out of curiosity

Post by Dragoneyed »

Hey everybody, Out of curiosity how many people have an envy colored vibe? How many people can honestly say they like that color? No offense to any who have a envy vibe, but what was pontiac thinking. I think maybe the deep forest green like you see on the newer Grand Am's would have been a better green.

If I had my way, we'd own an Envy Vibe. I adore that colour. My husband, however, is a bit more conservative than I am, so we're probably going to go with Abyss or Shadow.

Personally I do like it. Not my favorite but I would drive a Vibe that color. Definately unique. I would have really jumped on a darker forest green as you mentioned before the Envy however.For reference, some pics: http://nicksimkins.com/vibe/envy/thumb.htm

We have the Envy Vibe and I really do like it. I wasn't immediately smitten, but after the test drive and looking around, honestly I found all the other color choices to be pretty boring (sorry- no offense). I found the weird green really grew on me! (so much so we've named her "Ivy")And I can't say that I'm much of an attention-seeker, but it is nice to have people approach me and tell me they really like it. Surprising, but nice!And if few people pick this color, so much the better- I'm fine with owning a rare breed...

susango, You picked a classic color. Green is popular every 10 years or so, and the Envy Vibe is almost the same green that Pontiac used on the mid-size LeMans back in the 70's.
