You can get the 5 speed for little over $15,000 and the automatic for around $16,500 . These have plenty of standrad safety and comfort features that are usually add ons for other manufacturers , including TOYOTA ( YARIS , MATRIX , etc. ) .

Next door neighbor owns one. They're a Toyota with some extra options. Made at the GM/Toyota NUMMI plant at Fremont. He loves his Vibe.

new '09 automatic VIBE that's loaded can be had for $15,999 the M.S.R.P. is $19,480 . There's an additional $1,000 off if you are currently leasing a vehicle . We seen it in a regional paper . Amazing . Very tempting to trade in the '08 Liftback . Probably wouldn't get squat for a trade with those discounts . TRICK OF THE TRADE , literally .
