Used 2005 Pontiac Vibe Consumer Reviews
Fun Car
The GT version is fun to drive. The corners, the straight-a-ways, on-ramps, off-ramps(braking), are all fun to do. The only problem I have had, was snow. The engine is an all aluminum engine and doesn't do to hot in the snow. But other than that, the car is quick off the line. Kinda sluggish in the low end torque area, but when you hit 6000rpm all the way to 8k, hold on. Gas mileage is good also. Driving from Virginia to Minnesota, you have to cross through the mountains, which I might add is a blast, I still get great gas mileage. I never want to get stuck someone in the boondocks of West Virginia and in the Vibe I don't have to worry about that.
Great Car
I have two Pontiac Vibe's. I have a 2004 and a 2005. It all started when we got the 04 for my wife. I liked it so much I bought a 2005. The mileage is fantastic on both, They are both FWD only.

well put together
the vibe has a high quality feel and look to it. the drivetrain is peppy, the auto transmission is very smooth shifting. handling is tight and the ride smooth and controlled. fuel economy is excellent. i expect reliability to be good considering its toyota heritage. lots of positive comments on its styling.
i looove the vibe'
it greeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!!!!!!!! and i love it!!!!!!!!!!
Practical with a flair
After 28,000 miles it's still a tight machine. No problems with engine or drive train. With flat bed in back can carry lots of stuff, yet with seats up is comfortable. I'm hard on brakes but haven't had to replace them yet. Good styling for a small vehicle.
