Both dealers I went to said Honda is ceasing M/T for the 2011 model year. They said that only 2-3% of all Honda's sold are manuals and that is more cost effective to stop making them for a manufacturing standpoint.

 

^can anyone confirm this?

 

sounds like something the dealer would say to give you a sense of urgency to buy. i love my new fit, but dealing with the dealership is such a pain in the ass. i hate salesmen, it just feels like you are doing your best to not get screwed over by them.

they initially wanted 18k for my base model lol dealer markup.

i ended up getting it for 15,500

 

They actually had plenty of automatics left but as I was driving the salesman told me M/t will no longer be made for 2011. I made the descision to buy the 5 speed to have one more time before I go to automatics for good. He seemed surprised and said they are hard to find compared to before. I can't say this is etched in stone but just repeating what was told to me.

 

Bought my orange revolution metallic Fit Sport today at O'Hare Honda in Des Plaines, IL.

$18,850 sport auto with navigation/vsa
$331 center console armrest
$200 option package (rear bumper applique, wheel locks, cargo tray)
$154.38 documentation preparation charge
$95 title
$25 license plate transfer
$25 optional electronic vehicle registration
$1,579.83 sales tax (ouch)
$21,260.21 Total

 

I looked up 2011 Fits and I think they will still make the 5 speed M/T. I think they were talking about no more production for the rest of 2010 model production.

 

Used 2009 Sport - 8600 miles - w/ Navigation, Center Armrest, Cargo Tray, and Cargo Net. Asking price was $16,900. Bought it for $14,900 and got $6200 trade-in on a 2001 Buick LeSabre.

 

(Edmonton Alberta Canada)
2009 New Black Dx-A less then 100Km $16,000 after all the BS, taxes, admin and add on charges. $14,440 Before the add on BS

 

18,600.00 otd wheel locks,door edge, el cerrito Ca

 

got the fit base with keyless entry and all season mats for 16,000. that includes tax, tag, title, ect....

 

Is this a good deal? 17900 after taxes/license for Fit Sport m/t. I think I an do better...

 

Just got my 2010 Blue Sensation Fit Sport M/T yesterday, paid 17,191 OTD!

 

What dealership did you purchase from?

 

Ourisman Honda of Laurel MD. I would never recomend them, I was at the dealership for seven hours of bullshit to get that price. Worst car buying experience of my life, but I got the car for the price I wanted to pay, and got .9% financing!

 

I paid $18270 OTD at a Honda dealership right outside of Chicago last saturday, 2010 Fit sport AT.

$15925 + $750 d/h,

 

Just got mine yesterday- 3,449 miles, 2010 Sport AT, Taffeta white with Carbon Fiber Trim. I paid $16,320 after some haggling. No taxes for me since I live in NH!

Bastard did hit me with a $385 doc fee though, so I suppose off the lot was $16,705. Edmunds and KBB didn't even have an estimate for used 2010's, so I didn't have hard numbers from that year to back me up- just 2009 low mileage numbers.

You guys think I got a good deal? I was pleased, but a friend said he thought I overpaid a bit. :/

 

Sounds like a good price to me. In March, I paid 16.3k out the door for a new 2010 Base MT in CA.

 

You did okay - no real deal, but you have one. Welcome.

 

thats a pretty decent deal on 2010 sport, 2009 sports AT with low miles are still going for around 14900

 

Just got mine today!!!! w00t! 2010 Fit Sport Automatic - 16,018 Before Taxes.

It gets a lot more MPG than my 350z! ;D I miss some things about the Zed but the economics of the Fit really make up for it. I'm going to keep the Fit for a long time.
