Wooo Hoo!!! I knew I was doing the right thing with this car. And my last vehicle was a '97 Nissan Quest that was psycho.

Make that 4 of 4. The Vibe is built on the Matrix platform as a GM/Toyota joint venture.

actually its really surprising that the vibe beat out any of those... its like a cheaper built but over priced matrix... it has the same motor, worse suspension geometry, and everytime i order parts for them... they come in indiscreet plain brown boxes with tiny little GM logos on them. when you open it up... big "made by toyota" on everything.
