As an aside, My neighbor has an 09 corolla and I park next to it all the time. If the body styling hasn't changed much I can definately say that the Vibe looks like a monster next to the corolla. The corolla has a much lower roof line thereby giving it less frontal area. I am sure that staistic alone would change MPG numbers on a side by side comparison.
Odd however are the current numbers, My Vibe is an 04 auto and even @ 65mph I can now religiously get 37mpg. Remember the VVTi also has a learning curve, so if before you drove it someone has been dogging it, it would be reflected in the VVTi's performance.
I remember at least two tank fulls before the VVTi began to adjust shift points based on my slower driving habits.
