  By Mark Searles - March 31 - 1:36 am

  What a car. I owned Nissans my whole life, but decided to spend my money on Uncle Sam, and let me tell you its the same if not better. This car is filled with Fun and perfect for 1-2 kid car seats.

  Me and My Vibe - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By Buckeye - January 5 - 6:56 pm

  Love this car - owned two SUVs previously but had to give them up due to distances traveled and gas expenses. Found this little gem and I feel right at home - sitting up high and feeling safe while getting the added bonus of good gas mileage. Performs very well; quite zippy. People (teens included) like the cars performance and appearance. We love the audio system, sun roof and fast-responding heater. It is keeps us warm! We are ready for the nasty winter :)

  The Vibe , a Great Little Car - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By Warren Curt - December 17 - 1:06 pm

  This car has all I am looking for with the current fuel situation. I replaced a V8 truck and have cut my fuel consumoption in 1/2. It cruises very well at 75 MPH. There are numerous storage areas. It has very adequate space for 4 adults. I like the styling better than its cousin the Toyota Matrix. I would recomend this car to anyone.

  GOES and goes 211,000 miles at 34-40 mpg - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By bass player - December 4 - 6:47 pm

  No major repairs, only maintenance like fluid changes and brake checks. Enough room for a string bass and 2 children. Great car! We live where there are dirt roads and rough roads, no repairs needed. It has a timing belt. I drive 500 miles per week and average 35 mpg. When I freeway drive its 40 mpg. I have been rear ended twice. Once by a large pick-up truck (I opted to not repair) and recently by a semi trailer truck and I am still driving my Vibe. This time repairs are needed due to my crunched lift gate. I need to transport the string bass.

  One Fantastic Ride - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By Greg Halford - October 22 - 1:00 pm

  I owned a 2005 Vibe since 2006. It had 21000 miles on it when I bought it. I drove that car for 3+ years and had the mileage up to 112000 when Bambi took me out of the race. I was sooo mad.. There was no thinking about it and I went right out and bought another one. I loved the first one and Im still loving the second one. Other than normal maintenance Ive never had either car in for any problems.!! Just oil and filters and replacing the tires. You can not go wrong with a Vibe !! Too bad that Pontiac is going out of busines as this particular type of Pontiac is a sure-fire winner. I will be sure to purchase another one before you cant find them anymore.

  My first Pontiac @ 57 - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By annie - May 29 - 10:46 pm

  I purchased this car on July 5th,2005.The salesman searched the entire state until he found a model I requested:5-speed, loaded with everything but ABS. I am completely happy with my purchase, and can reccomend it to anyone who values fuel economy; a spunky engine; and a high cuteness factor. All of the options I requested are just what one would expect and hope for: they work,and they look good doing it. One more thing: I have four dogs(big ones) and there is plenty of room when the rear seats are down.And I think it could even be used for camping(sans dogs) for me and my squeeze.Lots and lots of room. I love this car.

  Feeling the Vibe - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By TeeDubb - February 11 - 1:00 am

  My Vibe was a leftover new 2006 I found on a local lot in May 2007. I replaced my ancient 1993 4Runner with the Vibe and I couldnt be happier. Tons of interior space (as much as my old truck), lots of storage cubbies, surprisingly peppy engine (though a little noisy when it gets into higher RPM) and aggressive, sporty styling (much cooler than the Matrix). After about 1700 miles, Im very pleased with my purchase.

  Alomost 2 years and still got the vibe!! - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By Sctbyd - October 3 - 5:40 pm

  This is a great car. Me and my wife have had this car for almost 2 years now and have had not one problem yet. Have 37,000 miles on it, from going to L.A.(Disneyland) at least 11 times since we bought it. Nothing to complain about very roomy and very comfortable. Tested not filling up once going from San Fran to LA and got there with some fumes left to spare (trip miles were 410!!!) seems to get better gas mileage as the years pass.

  I love my V-Bay - 2006 Pontiac Vibe
  By My V-Bay - July 7 - 7:43 pm

  I love my car. I bought it 01/2007 and have put 5k miles on it. It goes like 80 miles before it hits under the F on the gas tank. Gave a 7 for build quality due to the noise when driving on rough surface. I bought base model - and love it. Car does really well - fits my small and large friends who are 300+. Car accelerates quickly. Looked at Matrix and Caliber which are in same class as the Vibe. Looked at the Toyota Yaris as well. Took this car for test drive and bought it same night. This was our 4th car from the dealership and are very happy with it. Hope to keep it for many years
