Pontiac Vibe — First generation (Toyota Matrix twin, NUMMI) (2003–2008)

The first-generation Pontiac Vibe was sold as 2003–2008 models and built by NUMMI in Fremont, California alongside the Toyota Matrix; it came as a base car, an AWD model and the GT (Wikipedia; NICB VIN manuals 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2008 list Vibe, Vibe AWD and Vibe GT). The GM Service Manual RPO lists cover every year: the FWD and AWD lists are word for word the same in 2003–2006 (95 codes each), and only an FWD list exists for 2007 and 2008 (89 codes, the same in both years). The lists give no trim availability, so notes carry none.
