Talking So I walked into a Honda dealership....Hello Vivid Blue Pearl!!!

Looked at the FIT. The dealer just unloaded 4 off the delivery truck, spoke to the dealer and 3 were already sold - an Orange, Black and Red! All of them were Sports with auto transmission. The waiting list on a silver one, what I really wanted, goes into late August 2006 - so I took the last one, a blue one!

I pick it up this weekend.

I just got sick of putting 16 gallons of Premium Unleaded(required) every other day(120 mile commute total!) at $3.39/gallon, into my 2003 Supercharged Nissan Xterra.

Guess I'm part of the club now.

I agree my pet peeve too.

The auto is a five speed as well. Now five on the floor, would not make me made but it sounds nothing like four on the floor. Not catchy.

I got lucky and snagged a Fit Sport MT that was just unloaded from the truck as well.

Ahh yes, the Vivid Pearl Blue Fit Sport 5AT. I know this car I love this car. Just yesterday, I watched someone park next to me, get out, walk all the way around the Fit and peer in the windows before going on their way...

Wave, you postwhore! Now you're whoring here as well as ARFCOM?? hahaha

I'm still going back and forth with the internet sales mgr here... I MIGHT, just MIGHT end up with a Blue Sport AT, too. She said she's getting one in. I want the MT, but might do the AT if the numbers work out.

Congrats!

You're going to love it! I have the same Fit Sport in Vivid Blue Pearl (m/t).
My early choice was Silver also, but seeing the blue in person convinced me that it was a great color and looked perfect for this car.

See mine here at:

I couldn't tell from your post if yours is manual or auto.
