2004 Pontiac Vibe Reviews, Pricing & Specs

It’s a great little car. It runs smooth, it’s quiet, and it’s very roomy! Loving it so far!

love how it handles. love the roominess esp in the cargo area. Love the reliability. very comfortable front seats with lumbar support. accelerates and brakes well. always have felt safe in this car. it's been a great car for me.

I loved this car for when we had a large dog and just one kid but now that I have two kids I can't take the dog with when we go on trips. This car was good at hauling cargo or large boxed items by folding down the back seats.

Performance- has a suprising amount of pickup for a 4cyl I previously drove a Durango. Handling is good. No ABS for some reason. Build Quality- The dealer didn't do any of the 60k repairs so we did. Road noise blocking isn't the best. But has Toyota's reliability without the cost. Cost of ownership- cheap on gas Fun Factor- fun to drive, but hard to take on bad dirt roads.

This car is perfect for a family that doesn't want an SUV yet. The operating costs are low and the cargo space is great. Easy access for child seats, too. There's a good chance I buy another Vibe after this one.

great value for the money, I would strongly recommend this car to anyone. The only real downfall I found was that in order to get the all wheel drive system, you had to purchase the car with an automatic. Unfortunately, with only 123 hp, the manual transmission was needed for any 'spirited' driving. For the snow season, a set on Bridgestone Blizzak Revo1's helped with traction.

It's definitely worth a look. There's a ton of room inside with the seats down, and seats 5 comfortably with the seats up. Great mileage and very few repairs have been needed with mine. All in all a great little wagon that's fun to drive.

An inexpensive AWD station wagon w/ unbelievable space in the back

This car is a very reliable car. Great for getting around town or long trips. The luggage rack has come in very handy. The AC power outlet is a unique feature of this car that has been very useful. I loved this car for the 6 years we have owned it.

Considering I was driving a 1990 Chrysler New Yorker before this (hey, it was free.) this car's a blast. After a few months behind the wheel, the 180 horsies CAN be fun, but man you've got to wring the car's neck to get all the hp. For a budget car, the brakes are pretty fabulous, and the handling is a little loose, but not bad. "Lift", the noticeable boost you get between 6400-8200 rmps (yes, those numbers are correct. It revs forever.), is a hoot, but normal driving conditions only allow lift in first and second. Unless you don't mind hitting 90 on the freeway. Overall, fun. Build quality isn't the best, but it's 95 percent Toyota so I can't complain too much. I average 26-28 mpg mixed driving.
