The GE owners don’t complain cause their cars still work 😂

aside from plugs seeking orbit.

Yeah, it’s true, many people who only 2-3years ago were thinking about how to modify their GEs have gotten bored (or aged out of some 7-year lease) and moved on to some other car. What do y’all think that next car is for most ppl?

My GE is still one of the most practical + nimble cars I’ve had, not sportiest by any means, but even if we buy an Outback soon this Fit isn’t going anywhere ... wife has already said “you get what you want, I like this one.”

Mine is at a junkyard somewhere. I have a GK now. Lost the zeal to buy crazy parts, just getting practical ones now.

Bought a red base, new in 2013. Still have it, My wife drives it now. Has something like 120k on it and with a thorough wash and interior cleaning you could hardly tell it isn't brand new. I drove a TL for a while, until I wrecked it. Now I have a Clarity. I love the quiet and I'm getting about 140mpg with almost all solar charging. When I drive the Fit I always love the go-cart character of it.

wow.. lot of familiar names.

ryu man you're local.. I think we might have met at a meet or something.
sorry to hear about your GE.. I think I read the post some where.

Still got mine.. just not much on the forum
still got my list of mods, and trying to complete them.

Can't believe my car is 10 years old and still feels like new.. aside from the numerous scratches and minor dents.. lol

Glad to see many familiar GE8 names

I still check the site every so often. This site gave me great ideas (especially the overhead lamp) for my two Base 2012's. 1 has over 100,000 miles and lives in Chicago and the other is mine with around 51,000. I'm always happy driving mine - works great for me.
