2003 Pontiac Vibe GT Reviews

It's OK.  Surprisingly fast but with a weak clutch and lousy shift linkage on its 6-speed manual transmission.  It has very comfortable seats, good interior space, very flexible.  BUT pieces break and fall off easily.  I regularly get 27 mpg in a mix of highway and around-town driving.

Sporty, can haul 5 people, cargo space to move large items, and fun to drive.  Can't ask for anything better.  The Vibe GT is really practical vehicle.  Epecially when you have to move stuff.  It also has a "wild" side when you get into the higher RPM levels.  Handles well and it's fun to use the six speed manual transmission on the twisty roads.  I lowered my Vibe GT, added the TRD cold air intake, and a Magnaflow cat-back exhaust.  It runs like a champ!

It's also the only car where you can plug in a blender and make margaritas as well.  hehehe

Overall, Pontiac did a good job teaming up Toyota in making this vehicle.  

I love my Vibe GT.  When we had our daughter, my wife's Acura Integra 2 dr. wasn't going to get us around easily so we decided to trade it in and knowing that the Vibe was really a Matrix (Toyota Corolla platform vehicle) was a good deal as far as quality, reliability, gas mileage and price.  Bonuses of course were the room, versatility, style and last but by no means least performance.  Later on down the road my own vehicle (2000 Neon POS) was thankfully written off and the GMC Safari that followed only lasted a year in my ownership due to gas mileage, commuting sense etc. that I went out and got my own Pontiac Vibe GT.  Now our family has 2 and were are a Vibe Family.  I can't say enough about this car!  I look forward to a long standing and caring ownership of both cars.
