Finally got my 2008 Milano Red Fit Sport

Pics here http://www.fxol.com/?l=81l

Been looking and debating for a while... didn't really *need* another car, but finally got an okay deal and pulled the trigger.

Milano Red 2008 Fit Sport with a few options included. Got the 5MT, with EPP (BS fabric and paint protection), rear cargo mat (woopie), wheel locks (woopie), Etchguard on the windows (woopie), and the Honda HFP wheels/tires (have to wait a few days for the dealer to get them in).

Negotiated price on that was $16,380 + TTL. Then I ended up getting the basic extended warranty (extends everything to 6 yr, 72K miles), and included 3/36 maintenance (oil changes, etc). Figured I'd get that in case I give the car to my daughter eventually. Added $30/mth to the financing (4 year).

Now time to order a few things... gonna order the Fit floormats, door sill trim, Skunk2 (or maybe other) springs, STB and C-Pillar brace, Tanabe medallion touring axle back, arm rest, and maybe a few other little items.

Will install a ScanGauge II on it tomorrow too

Congratz man! Sounds like you got a pretty nicely loaded new Fit!
If you dont mind me asking, how much did your dealer charge on your HFP wheels? When i bought my Fit i was also thinking about HFP from the dealer but they were asking like 800$ no tires. You can get them for 430$ no tires on the web. Just a heads up, since you said you havent recieved them yet, amybe you can turn the rim deal around if they are over charging on the rims.

Got the HFP's w/ the tires for $864. Most dealers online want $500 + SH for just the wheels.

Dang MR's are on the rise again. haha. Sounds like you got your car pretty much all figured out. I have skunk2 springs and love them. They are nice springs for the money imo. Its nice to see you get your car and now its time for the mod bug to bite you. haha.

Well, think I decided on the Tanabe GF210 Springs actually. Ordered a few things last night. Waiting on a price (deal?) on the springs and exhaust together, which I may order later today.

I'll debadge the dealer logo today, and probably install my ScanGauge II. Still decided which color to do my rear "H" logo and Fit logo overlay in

I stay legal and like it to match on the sides... so it's 35% on all sides, 20% on back.

According to my ScanGuage II, I did 35 more miles of errands today, and still averaged 30.2 mpg

Get a RSB before you get a STB!! The Progress RSB will make MUCH bigger of a difference.
