..Finally......my fit is here...

What a pain in the ass trying to get my fit and the BS I had to deal with at the dealership. Well I ordered a white fit with black interior in Dec. and the car came in a few days ago and it came with beige interior. I was pissed, I wanted a fit and I saw they had got 2 silver fits in and I told them I'll take one of those. So they called me later that day and said I could have 1 of them. 3 days later dealing with insurance and the dealership bullshit I finally get to take it home. What pisses me off more is that I work at the dealership.

Here is a few pics of it, I'll be putting most of my parts I have piled up on today.

The background lighting in your photos really enhances the SSM color- great looking car, and congratulations! Weird that your dealership would screw their own employee, though.

The exact thing happened to me(ordered white/black, came white/beige), I too worked at the dealer. I got mad so they found a black/black for me at another dealer, quite happy things turn out the way it is. Black is hot.

Congrats and hope you will be happy with silver, is it a M/T?

Haha that sucks but I guess the white wasn't meant to be with both of us. Thanks, yeah it is a M/T.

Few pics after I put a few things on today.

Wow, that's a crazy choice for rims!! Its quite old school. Please post pics of the final product.

Really nice! Of course the dealership I'm working with is probably ready to kill me. I put a deposit down for a VBP and they exchanged with another dealership to have one delivered off the boat end of April bginning of May. Then today I changed my mind to SSM so we'll see how long I have to wait. Of course I don't think they can be too angry as I know they'll sell the other one anyway.
RickyDG-What kind of gas milege are you getting?
I see one SSM around here that has anodized blue lug nuts on the rims, where can I get those?

Nice Fit man! Congrats.

Im really not liking the growth of Fits in Florida. I see around 2-5 a day.
Not cool. Everyone keeps telling me Fits are everywhere and I dont like hearing it! I always come back with "Bet it wasnt 5speed." Haha!

I like being the only Fit at a car meet or show. Not anymore. The last show I went to had 3. However; I was the nicest.

nice, tasteful goup of mods you have done to your car already. keep up the good work

I am starting to like SSM more and more. Though I am not ruling out VBP yet.

I like the red badges, Though I would go with a JDM Fit badge (red dot on the i) to match the red badges.
