2006 Pontiac Vibe GT Summary
With a tweaked 1.8-liter I4 engine that hits 164-hp and a 6-speed manual transmission, the 2006 Pontiac Vibe GT is the sportier version of the popular compact sport wagon crossover. But features are still kept to a minimum to maximize performance and affordability. The front-wheel drive wagon does come with ABS brakes, a tire monitor, fog lights, daytime running lights, and dual front airbags, as well as alloy versions of the 16-inch wheels. Front-side and side impact airbags are optional. Air conditioning, a CD/MP3 player, tachometer and temperature display, and intermittent front and rear wipers are standard. The 2006 Vibe GT does have leather trim on the shifter and steering wheel.
Rear seats and the passenger front seat fold flat, and there is also a roof rack and cargo cover. The cargo area has up to 54 cubic feet of space. A new Premium Package adds leather seats to the 2006 Vibe GT. Other packages add power features, keyless entry, cruise control, a sunroof, OnStar, satellite radio, 17-inch wheels, a security system, a rear spoiler, and upgraded audio. Owners like the easy handling, the space and configurability of the interior, and the fuel economy (26/32 mpg). They report some problems with the 6-speed and slight road noise.
