Spy Shots: 2008 Matrix?

Are these spy shots of 2008 Toyota Matrix/Pontiac Vibe?

Well I agree its defenitly not the A-class, but i do in fact believe that its the Pontiac Vibe or they just made it look like it with the front grill.

I think that it's the Vibe because of the roof racks. The current Matrix doesn't have them but the Vibe does. Plus the weird looking grooves in the hood scream pontiac to me.

Just because the camo grille has a Pontiac resemblance, it's passed off as a Vibe??

Either way, it's quite a treat to see TWO camo'd models. The sloped rear window makes it more of a hatchback as promised but the tailgate really looks unfinished (and hopefully isn't the final shape).

The first picture of the front looks like the current Vibe...sort of....you don't think someone took spy pictures of the current one when it was going to first come out and claim its the second gen? Oh well!
