Details! We want details! BTW, welcome to the Vibe world and this forum. I'd offer you a toast but the icon is no longer available (long story), so I'll give a big

If it makes you feel any better - the hell starts when you finally take delivery - after a week of babying mine, I only had 300 miles on it. This is well short of the 500 mile break-in recommended by the manual, so I grabbed a stack of mellow CD's and headed out after dinner - Just got back with 540 miles on the ODO - so I celebrated by experiencing "lift" for the first time. Woo hoo!!! That little 1.8 Liter sounds so sweet...

Ben the longest part is the delivery from Boisbriand (the GM plant serves as a distribution hub). Where did you order your Vibe from.I ordered mine from Gravel on Iles des Souers.I hope you get yours earlier too!

Congrats on the delivery. I picked mine up last month and it already has 3000 km on it. (drive to work and drove to Montreal last weekend). It has been a really nice drive so far.

Hey R@@MPID, I ordered mine at the same dealer.I got some news this am from them, My Vibe was on the pruduction chain since October 17th. How long it took you to get your car after the production date? I should have mine by the end of November.I think I saw your Vibe in the Gravel parking lot. I travel on the Champlain bridge every day and I have a very good view on their lot.If the time frame of my Vibe still as is, I will take 12 weeks from ordering to delivering. I think i'm very lucky considering your 21 weeks waiting for your Vibe.Also, what the dealer give you with your Vibe? I got tinted windows for free.
