2010 Pontiac Vibe User Reviews

Pros

form factor, space, cargo area

Cons

no available navigation option, a 3.0 liter engine for GT would make sense

Purchased As New

I replaced my 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT with my first new car, the Vibe. I was looking for a vehicle in this class and test drove the dodge caliber and Kia Soul as well. The Soul had the weakest engine and the smallest cargo area but was roomier than the others. The caliber had the peppiest engine but the rubber crown (for lack of a better term) made it look cheap. So I settled for the vibe and I have to say that I'm happy with it.

I feel that it could use a larger engine in the GT, I mean, come on, the only difference between the GT and the other 2.4 liter cars is a 5-speed automatic? Seriously? The only trouble I've had is traversing large hills when driving cross country.

The car is great for commuting but not so great if you're going to do a great deal of high-way travel.

The ride is quiet and smooth.

Oddly enough my 6 cylinder eclipse got better gas mileage but maybe that's due to my heavy foot and not having adjusted to driving a non-sports car.

The car is basically a toyota matrix (sans available options) with a pontiac symbol on it. I chose it over the matrix because of the available 5-year no interest financing....read morehide
