"bought used 3 mo. 50k miles, solid grocery getter, ecconomical, impressed with the quality, rebranded Matrix, small but comfort OK, busy ride due to short wheel base, & more road noise then a mid size, but if you need an exconimical fair priced & dependable car consider the vibe"

"Does not handle well. Uses too much gas when air-conditioner is on. Car heats up on the inside if the sun is out. It is very noisy ride."

"2nd Vibe. Ex-wife has the 2004. Only bad points are harsh ride (I suspect due to tires that promotes great gas mileage) and electronic gauges that become invisible in sun light. Otherwise, my 2008 has been 100% trouble-free in 50,000 miles. I have slept in it (comfortably) in National Parks, have used it to pull a trailer, loaded with a motorcycle, 5,000 miles and have driven it across North Dakota with 4 passengers and their luggage at 75 mph. And driving very conservatively, I have achieved 40.2 MPG in combination city/suburban driving. And....I think it's a pretty good looking car for it's size."

"got my 2008 used with 27000 miles. i love it. i am long-legged and still found the drivers seat to be comfy. great gas mileage. theres lots of storage space, yet it handles like a compact car. iv always had small cars, and i was a little worried about getting used to this one, but it zips around with the best of em. only had it 6 months, but no probs. my mom has a 2009, very reliable, which was the selling point for me. the cup holders are too close together. thats the only thing i can complain about. its really a toyota with a pontiac body. and you know toyotas reputation. and it was made in california."

"This is the best little car ever. I haul two dogs and two kids in it. I haul 9-foot garage doors in it. I haul 16-foot pieces of trim in it. It gets 27 mph in the city of I am careful. I am 6' 5" and the car is amazingly comfortable. The computer went out on mine at 32,00 miles or so. Under warranty. Still .... Also, controls are a bit awkward. Only complaints. Bought it used, 21,000 miles, was a rental car."

"I bought this car used from a pontiac dealer with 65000 miles. It is a 2004 model with awd. In the last 15 months i have returned to have bearings replaced in the awd coupling,again for seals in awd,again to determine that the awd is not working at all and will cost $2000 to fix. At this time there is bearing noise again in the rear end. Cruise control ejected it's on/off switch and o2 sensor is defective. What a clunker."

"We havn't had our Vibe long, but so far we really like it. Good on gas, comfortable, performs well. Our only complaints are minor. There are no storage pockets or center armrest in the rear seat area (these complaints come from the kids) The coin holders rattle annoyingly & you can't get a light color interior. Every little fuzz is visible."
