    This is a great automobile. I usually have problems with comfort in a small car because of my size (61", 230 lbs) but I drove this from OK to MI with my wife and 3 family pets and we had no trouble. Plus we got great fuel mileage. Great performance and handling.

    at 57,000 miles 5-speed manual transmission failed. dealer helped because out of warranty so it cost $2200 for new trans. now have 92,000 miles and starting to hear noise again, afraid its going to fail again.

  • This is a great car - 2003 Pontiac Vibe

    I didnt believe I would like to drive this vehicle, but I do! I used to drive a Jeep Cherokee and that consumed way too much money for gas. With the Vibe, Im filling the tank once a week when I used to being flling the Jeep every other day. This car looks great and handles well. I bought the base Vibe for fuel economy and its a little slower than what Im used to driving but its a very small flaw if I had to choose one.

  • So Happy! - 2003 Pontiac Vibe

    I was SO hesistant about buying this car. I was downsizing from a Chevy Blazer and wasnt sure I wanted an American car again. I had to test drive it three times. But I love it now. Its reliable - good in our winter snowstorms - and incredibly fun to drive, even if its only a 4 cylinder. There is a ton of storage space and it will make a great "baby" car in a few years. I get tons of comments on it - how cool it looks interior and exterior.

  • not so great - 2003 Pontiac Vibe
    By -

    Okay you may get good gas milage but you sure dont get performance. I know its a 1.8 liter engine, I think it should have a little more get up and go. I didnt realize how tight a space the front seating compartment is.

    Excellent vehicle with smart options for work at home/portable office types like Real Estate Agents. Great power, esp. at the higher rpms. More comfortable than most in its class! Receives great comments from passers by.

    The Pontiac Vibe is the most significant car built this year. Its aggressive styling, luxurious ride, outstanding fuel economy, make it an unbeatable package. It has plenty of power, roomy interior, and plenty of personality. Definitely get the moon and toons package.
