Used 2003 Pontiac Vibe Consumer Reviews
Hot Hatch
I took the GT model. Thought this car was SOOO much fun! I love the versatility of the hatchback/wagon type of car (and yes, I'm comfortable with calling it a wagon!). The placement of the shifter couldn't be better. Surprisingly quiet on the expressway and fun to flog around town! The power is all from 6000-8000 RPM, which means you don't always get into it in daily driving. Ideally, I'd have the base w/5-speed and the GT suspension.
Great 2nd Car
My wife and I bought the Vibe as a second car. We are both 6ft+ and it has great head room and fair leg room. It also good gas milage. The back seat has room for a car seat and two grandparents. We are very happy with it.

Fun to drive
Have had it for about 2 months. AC blower motor replaced under warranty. the car is fun to drive, gets respectable gas mileage, and is very roomy. Happy with our purchase so far...
Vibe GT
Versatile, roomy, efficient, and thoroughly enjoyable. Prever the Vibe's styling to the boy-racer Matrix, plastic cladding improves the aesthetics by deemphasizing the car's height, cladding will also prevent paint chipping on rural roads. Driving position: seats, pedals, gearshift... all A+. Will hold four 6'3" adults comfortably, manual transmission is a must, love the red guage illumination, GPS navigation system is amazing... If you can find a better nav system in a car under $40K, buy it! ...worth every dollar!
So Happy!
I was SO hesistant about buying this car. I was downsizing from a Chevy Blazer and wasn't sure I wanted an American car again. I had to test drive it three times. But I love it now. It's reliable - good in our winter snowstorms - and incredibly fun to drive, even if it's 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.
