My wife is looking at Pontiac Vibes, 2 wheel drive with auto.
I know that they are basicly a Toyota Matrix but has any one on here owned or drove one and what are the pro'* and con'* of this car.
Thanks.

i haven't heard anything about gas pedals getting stuck, which is good news
we'll atleast not yet


but yeah honestly i see many of them around, the interior looks okay but never driven one yet

Good Gas Mileage, Variable Valve Timing, Looks Nice....what more could you ask for???

I know a few people that have them. Not a bad car, lots of room, drives OK.

Was given a Pontiac Vibe as a rent a car in Virginia in 2009. Never knew anything about a Vibe, not a single thing. My first impression.... wow, USA is finally making a small car that can compete with the Japanese. Ran lke a clock, handled smooth, everything was great. Only issue I found was it had a bit of a blind spot.

Later I discovered that the Vibe was built in California in a Toyota plant, plant may have been in partnership with GM. I definitely would give the Vibe a thumbs up.

toyotas are usually pretty good quality, i had one for a rental as well. it wouldnt beat a bicycle but everything else was ok. it had alot of good features for a small car

My wife owns one and loves the lil car.
Runs great never had any problems and very easy to maintain oh and they have a built in power inverter in the dash.
One of my complaints is that it needs more room we go camping a lot and i have two kids and with all our stuff the back area fills up quick but the luggage rack works well with those car toppers.

At 97,000' big fix for 2009 vibe, cost 1500
