Styled by Pontiac and engineered by Toyota, the entry-level Vibe four-door hatchback is produced at a Toyota/General Motors joint-venture facility in Fremont, Calif. The plant also produces the Vibe's sister vehicle, the Toyota Matrix. Pontiac launched the Vibe as an early 2003 model. Initially it had a choice of front- or all-wheel drive and low- and high-output engines. Since that time, the choices have only decreased, with two of the most attractive features — the more powerful engine and all-wheel drive — both eliminated for the 2007 model year. On the upside, the Vibe has added safety features such as side airbags and an electronic stability system. As for 2008, with the exception of a tire pressure monitoring system and a few tweaks to option package contents and prices, not a thing has changed since the 2007 model.  Read More
