Greetings! *waves* New Fit Driver Here :)

Hey y'all, I found this forum while looking for solutions to mount an iPhone to my new (to me, as it's a slightly used one) 2008 Fit Sport. I don't plan to mod it or anything, but it looks like this'll be the place to get the most out of it, should I need help, so I thought I'd just say hi. Hope y'all are well.

Thanks guys. I'm really looking forward to getting the most out of what looks to be an excellent car, one that I hope to have for a very long time.

Hey, I'm in the Koreatown/Mid-City/Hollywood areas. What about you?

Edit: Duh, NM, it says right there, El Monte. Wow, you're more east than I am.

Fitcious, ooohh, I don't live far from where you are at all. I actually don't HAVE the Fit yet, in all honesty. It's a weird sitch. I currently have a 2008 Nissan Sentra, but Nissan is buying it back from me this Thursday as a lemon under CA Lemon Laws. So after that, I'll be going down and getting the Fit I already signed the paperwork for.

And a 626 meet of Fit owners? Cool, that sounds like fun, when's the next one?

Hi there, Jordy, and thanks!

^always curious about that lemon law...what makes it a lemon? i would think the dealer would do everything they can to prevent it from being called a lemon..what was wrong with the sentra? would you go back to nissan again? (i wouldn't mind having a GTR)

626 meets are last Thursdays of every month. you can check it out in the southern california section under 626 meet...Matt usually hosts it.

There's a SoCal section around here? Wow, I have to look around.

And the Lemon Law, I believe, covers cars wherein more than a reasonable amount of repair attempts have been made to fix the same problem. On the Sentra, it was the brakes, which made an awful grinding noise two weeks after I got it, and never went away after seven repair attempts at two dealerships, one with a "Master Nissan Technician". Nissan finally agreed it was a lemon and agreed to buy it back from me. It was a big pain in the ass, but the persistence paid off.
