Pontiac Vibe - 2005 Reviews

We purchased our 2005 Pontiac Vibe in June 2007 when we returned from Germany.  Before we left, we sold our minivan.  It had quite a few miles on it, and we just didn't need anything that big anymore.  My wife loved the look of the Vibe, so I started looking for info about them.  I found many favorable reviews.  We found one in really good shape for a good price.  This car gets great gas mileage (39 MPG on the last tank).  It's also really sporty and fun to drive with a great stereo.  We've put 60,000 on it over the last two years and (knock on wood) no major problems.  There is plenty...

I conducted several months of research on vehicles before deciding which car to purchase.  Gas mileage, safety, reliability, and style were my main objectives when searching.  I even brought my father into the research to find out where the different parts of the cars were built.  My decision came down to the Pontiac Vibe with the affordability factor for a new car.  I've LOVED this vehicle.  As a real estate agent in western MT, I need a vehicle that can go anywhere. I've had this car on city streets, county roads, logging roads covered with snow, mud, ice, etc.

The reliability has been excellent. ...

I bought the Vibe when gas prices started to go up.  I couldn't be more pleased.  Coming from driving a van and putting $60 a week in to a Vibe and using $30 a week. 

 Roomy enough to haul my 3 kids around.  The style is great looking.  It drives smooth.  Lots of storage compartments. 

Only con I could come up with is the front bumbers are plastic.  Therefore hitting any small thing will hurt the car. 

My Pontiac Vibe has to be the best car I've ever owned. This car is equipped with AWD, sunroof, auto locks, and so much more. And when you need to move something rear seat folds down for extra space. The high back seat give more leg room where it feels similar to a trucks leg room. Very family orientated with built in latch system & child safety locks. If you're budget conscious and looking for a car great on gas then taste this one for a test drive.

This car is a great car!  Could be a little more roomier but great mileage, great in the winter as long as you got good snows
