Favorite feature: |
Quality & comfort at an affordable price, with a look that gets noticed. |
Least favorite feature: |
For a versatile economy car, you can't go wrong. |
Advice to buyer: |
No need to opt for GT version. Base model performs just fine and saves $$ on gas. |
Detailed review: |
Have owned my Vibe for about 18 months and really like it. First well-built GM car I've owned, thanks to it really being a Toyota deep down. Styling is better than Toyota Matrix version, and really gets noticed. I'm a big guy and my wife is petite, but we both find the driving position comfortable. Moon and Tunes Pkg is a fun option, even though we're oldsters (mid 40's). Had to search for model with side air bags, but it's worth it for the extra safety. ABS is also a plus, and we've had plenty of opportunities to test it during our winter weather. Good miles per gallon and performance. Overall quality fit and finish. Love the ability to expand cargo space with folding seats, including flat fold front passenger seat. Can't beat the price. Had to have the driver power window looked at but it's been fine since, and that's the only problem we've had. |
