Not an OG but I looked up to a lot of the FitFreak and TrueFitCrew OG's, One of the main reason why I fell in love with a fit and wanted one. Just an 18 year old building his dream Fit!!! Owned it for about 1 year so far.

Cool Stil have mine!!!

My everyday car so nothing to silly but...

Still an on-going project... have a Mugen rear lower splitter to paint and need to get a prefaclift bumper to fit it to!! And getting some SuperPro compliance bushes for the Hardrace front lower arms with centre roll ball joints.

5Zigen on it from new (got her in 2005) now with no baffle's left so a bit louder than it was (oddly worse in the car than outside, still fairly quiet outside)... now has Eibach springs with KYB shocks... OG shocks went at 80000 miles... Tein springs went at about 50000 miles both fitted from new... been through numerous sets of HID's... now has Raybrig H4 LED replacements so every bulb is LED apart from the yellow Polarg H11's for the fogs... not cheap but worth every penny!

Loads of OEM+ bits over the years... can't remember to be honest as I have an EP3 as well!

Enkei RP-01 one of the newest purchases... need refurbing but perfect fitment... after shaving the highest of the zinc coated screws on the rear bumper so no more rubbing

11 laps of the Nurburgring... 2 road trips to 24hr of Le Mans... Scotland a number of times...

134000 miles on her now!

Probably forgotten loads of stuff but pics are from the weekend so you can see what is fitted to her

Oh and I have a 1.5VTEC from a GD3 to go in at some point... from a CVT unfortunatley so need a MT ECU and wiring to fit!!

I love this car... can't explain but so much a part of me and actually enjoy driving her more than my EP3... weird I know

Mine!

2007 AT Sport
17,700 miles. Inherited from my parents. I've put some $ into getting this to run better since I started driving it at 5,000 miles on the odometer four years ago. Recent fluid changes, including switching over to Amsoil, have the car running its best it ever has. I also put new tires on the car. However, mpg's suck in SF. I am lucky to get 20/21 mpg per tank. Rexing front/rear dash cam.

Both cars in the garage, including my 2017 EX 6mt.
5,500 miles on the odometer. This one averages 25/26 mpg's in SF. I've always run this on Amsoil, Redline tranny fluid. Progress rear sway bar.

Well, I have still mine too. Bought in february 2007 and I have driven a little over 130.000km (81.000miles) since then.
Still love the car. Can take a lot of cargo. I have used it when I was moving house a year ago. Only the washing machine and bed was moved with another car because of their size

I do not have many recent photos of it though...
But here is one from when I moved house (not showing much of the car):



This is from 2013:

I still have mine too, nearing 167 000 km, not that much for a car I got on the 20 April 2007 ( no Picture sorry). I had to put 800$ on the AC this summer. first really expensive repair. Unfortunately it,s not as clean as I would like. headlight are foggy, need polish, and the rear wheel weel have lot of rust. In fact the rear bumper clip have gone away, the metal was eaten by rust ( yep.. duck tape on my car, no other choice for now). I need to repair this. I know, I know. It's my fault, I did neglected to repair it early 4 years ago when the first sign of rust shown, now it's a 800-900$ job if down by a pro. I'll try to do it the ChrisFix way. But I was in a low income period of my life.. I get my car treated with rust protection every year, so thew under body and overall structure are clean. My front suspension drive side shock is getting softer, it losing oil. need to change that. still like the car despite it showing it's age, that it never was that economical, but always a tons of fun and practical. I drove down from my city of trois-rivières to Pennsylvania in april and to new york 2 week ago, and it wen very well. I don't have money to change it anyway, it's been paid for for a while now, so, better keep it another 2 years at least.

I have a blue 2007 Fit Sport that I bought in October 2006. I'm still driving it just about every day and it has close to 90,000 miles on it.

Finally broken in at 365K miles!

Picked up my SSM 2007 5AT Sport on April 26, 2006. Drove it over 300K miles everyday to work.
On its 10th Birthday, gave it an HKS Turbo.
Im glad to say that it’s still running pretty well at nearly 14 years of age, with over 365,000 miles on the clock.

Bought mine July '06. Base model, manual, about 235k miles - she's getting a little crusty at this point, lol.
I don't drive it very often, my kid does though.
