I love my Vibe. It is sooooo versitile. For me it is an all around usefull vehicle. I take my dogs to shows in it. I have hauled livestock feed in it. One time I even brought a new screen door home from the building supply company in it. And it still is a nice, comfortable five passenger car.
slower but excellent value

Our Vibe is a great value... storage, comfort, independent suspension creates competent ride and handling. All Wheel drive has proven itself in snow and wet weather. Unfortunate lack of torque and power, one time snow/ice packed into wheels and created a terrible wheel balancing problem. Any other compaints might include squeaky brakes when wet. Otherwise, a very dependable and long term quality car.

Overall very happy with this vehicle. Now has 240k on it. Engine is tired but it still runs smooth and quiet. Great gas mileage. 4 instead of 5 stars because of the lack of power and everything about it feels very cheap.. I've had it since 200k and have replaced the fuel pump, alternator, valve cover gasket, brakes, and battery. Paint/body is rusting through on roof and hood (and we don't use salt here in Oklahoma). Best thing about the car is that most important components are made by Toyota. I fully expect it to make it past 300k.

We have a base 1.8L FWD model with 248k miles on it. And the only thing I can complain about is that it won't die!!! I just want it to die so I can justify buying a different vehicle. This car will forever haunt my dreams and aspirations just because it knows I hate it. It drives like a cheap POS, its super uncomfortable, yet it's economical with a highway mpg of 31 with me driving it like a bat out of hell for the last 14 years, and it has only cost about $1k in maintenance over the last 10 years, and I.....hate....the....car. Die already!

This car is a basic to and from work car. Front fenders are thinner than the Lunar Lander's. Interior is cheap, cheap, cheap. Visor mirror has closing lid on driver side only? Scared to death of being hit in this car at any speed.Cannot shut off auto headlights.Undercoat on car has to be re - applied due to poor quality control. Passenger seat too low. No power seats available.
