Vibe 2006 5 speed manual - 286 000 km
I bought this car when it had 170 000 km on it, since then (over 2 years ago) I've put on many miles on it (now have 286 000 km). I am very satisfied with the car. I have not put ANY repairs since I've had it other then repainting the top (little bit of rust started). I consistently get between 40 - 44 MPG (Canadian) doing mostly highway (that is about 33 - 36 US MPG). I drive conservative though, I keep it around 100 km/h on highway. I like the exterior of the vibe better then the matrix. The car has good cargo space and when you flip down the seats you get ridiculous amount of room back there, you don't know what your missing until you've had it trust me! Highly recommend!
Loving my Vibe
This is an awesome car!!!!! It is my 3rd one. The first one (2006) I had for 3 years, the person who has it now is still driving it with going on 168,000 miles. The second one (2009 GT) was rear ended by a Ford F-150 and I was not hurt, the car was totaled but she held up. Now I have a 2006 and it's awesome. I have never had to put any money into the cars except normal maintenance. They are economical, sporty, safe and low maintenance. The only thing I hate is they stopped making them and they are getting harder and harder to find.

The Vibe , a Great Little Car
This car has all I am looking for with the current fuel situation. I replaced a V8 truck and have cut my fuel consumoption in 1/2. It cruises very well at 75 MPH. There are numerous storage areas. It has very adequate space for 4 adults. I like the styling better than it's cousin the Toyota Matrix. I would recomend this car to anyone.
Great First Car
My mom bought this to replace her mini van and I got it about a year ago. Its a great, versatile car with some sportiness on the side. The inside is modern and is still in style after 4 years. It has great headroom and leg room for 4 adults. The folding seats are great, I can fit my drum set no problem. The sound system is pretty good for 4 speakers, lots of bass and clean sound. The engine is a little small (130 HP) but it accelerates fine and does good on hills.
2006 Vibe
We drive 50 miles a day over Bozeman pass to go to work. The Pontiac Vibe handles the hills and curves with ease in all types of weather from wet roads to 3 foot snow drifts.
