Sporty And Functional. - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By James - November 25 - 3:03 pmI have owned this car for about 4 months now and I commute 500KMS every 4 days. The Fuel Milage is awsome even at speeds of 120KPH. There is plenty of pep for a little motor. The seats are very comfortable, the interior is very well designed and very functional. I have used this to Haul T.Vs welders windshields, dogs. and much more. It is just so versitile.

Cool Little Car - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By Harold Wainwright - November 8 - 10:33 pmThe biggest temptation to buy was the price and the fuel mileage. All the other features were a bonus. My Vibe goes out of his way to do for me what I ask, and more.

160,000 and Counting! - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By herbitsky - November 8 - 3:52 amI bought my Vibe as a mgr special. It had 3k miles on it. The car is great (I did research on Edmunds.com before finalizing my decision) and so versatile! One time we had to drive over 1200 late at night to go "rescue" my mom and dad, and since I had just worked all day- my husband put a blow up mattress in the back and I slept the whole way! The only problems I have had with it is the interior lighting system inside is not totally working correctly. The drivers seat is not the most comfortable for going long distances (Ive gone some long distances in this car!), but overall...its been a great car for me!

I am absolutley happy - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By Aime Nitsch - November 4 - 8:23 pmI love my Vibe. Lots of Pros....love the seats. Comfort! The arm rest is way to low though. I get no use out of it and I am only 55". The moons and tunes package is a must. Makes it more sporty. I absolutley HATE the beeping that goes on for 2 minutes when I put the car into drive without having my seatbelt on. I understand the safety of it though. And make sure you get a mat for the back end. The "durable" plastic gets scratched very easy. I love everything else about it. The vents cool design. All the seats fold down. The current temp. I also wish that Audio controls were offered on the steering wheel. But its a GREAT bye!

What a great!!!!! Little car - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By jerry - October 28 - 5:50 pmwhat a great little car. I love the seats that sit up like your riding in an SUV, very comfortable on the back. The acceleration is surprising for the size of the engine. Lots of great standard features. I like the low tire warning indicator, the external temperature indicator, the built-in- dash AC jack, rear window wiper, defroster, and great gas mileage. Also, it has great head room, and great leg room in the back seat. One of my main reason for buying is that it has a toyota motor, and toyota transmission as well as being built at the toyota assembly plant. Wow..Wow..Wow...if you are looking for great gas mileage, and a fun to drive, peppy, and comfortable care. This care has it!

Great Family Car - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By Joeytdietz - October 10 - 1:23 pmWe have had this car for 3 1/2 years. We have kept pretty good care of it with oil changes every 3000 miles. Transmission fluid tends to run dark, not sure if this is a common problem with Vibes. No major repairs. We did have a computer replaced recently (at 82,000) after the check engine light came on. That cost us $600. Glad it wasnt a transmission problem because they can run about $3000 in this car. The car has lots of room for our family of four and being that it is a 4 cylinder it gets great gas mileage (32 mpg freeway) for a car its size.

Love my Vibe! - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By Mike - September 20 - 9:53 amI got my Vibe in June of 2005. Since I bought it, I have loved driving it since day 1. I usually get bored with a car 6-12 months after owning it. Everyday I cant wait to drive it because it is just fun to drive. Its a peppy 4-cylinder with good pickup and a smooth ride. There is a little bit of road noise but that is because of the design...which I love. It has a great look and the interior is great. I travel a lot and the interior space is great, more than meets the eye.

Excellent Car - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By Sheriff - July 16 - 2:46 pmIve been driving Corollas for the last 5 years and 2 months ago I replaced by 2000 Corolla with a 2005 Vibe, I have to say Im very happy with this car, its small from the outside yet roomy on the inside, Im 6-5" and have no issues setting in this car, traction is very good, fuel economy is very good too. I highly recommend this car to anybody, its a proof that GM can build good cars if they want to!!!

Best Car for Your Bucks - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By Stacy Volin - July 2 - 5:16 pmIf you want a car that can store a lot, look nice and feel comfortable even on long car rides, buy this one. Price is reasonable for everyone. It rides like a Lexus without the price tag. I almost bought a 330X Lexus. Saved myself lots of bucks and gave myself OnStar which is quite an advantage.

Wonderful car - 2005 Pontiac Vibe
By shamgar - June 16 - 7:03 pmBought this car new based on research into cars that got good mileage. We are extremely happy with it. Current mileage is about 65000 and the car has been dead reliable. It has a five-speed and since teaching my daughter to drive stick I now have to fight her for the car when I need it. Great fun to drive, loads of room for cargo. The only negatives are esthetics. Its not terribly comfortable on long drives and the low profile tires are extremely noisy especially on freeway expansion joints. Now that Pontiac is gone, I would buy a Toyota Matrix without hesitation.
