Got my new fit today!!

I'm just really excited this is my first new car (i've had:
1992 Toyota Corolla SR5
1992 Acura Integra (auto)
1992 Acura Integra (manual)


and now I am a proud new owner of a 2009 Honda Fit Sport Manual in a puuurty Taffeta White

I would've taken lots of pictures, but unfortunately it's been foggy/rainy all day :P

Just installed the all-weather floor mats (christmas present)...
and tinted windows will come within a week or two (another christmas present)

pictures will be up as soon as i get them!

Happy Holidays everyone!
Have a safe New Year!

congrats! I like the late 80s early 90s Corollas. It's all about the AE86! lol good choice on the Fit! What were the deciding factors?

yea the sr5 was a fun little car...but tranny went out :P

i was attracted to the car when it first came out in the US in '07...when i test drove that one i fell in love, but at the time i couldn't afford it. i'm glad i waited for the '09 though, it looks a lot sharper it really is fun to drive and really comfortable. shifting is super smooth and it handles excellent. it's a good looking, safe, economical car for a good price. and i've only had it for less than a day and i am thrilled

Hi!

I have the same car. Yes, it's beautiful. It attracts a lot of attention and I've gotten several compliments on it.

Lucky. (said in a Napolean Dynamite voice.) The white looks so clean. Tinted windows and rims and your set!!

i'll have to wait til summer time for the rims (i'm broke lol)
but it's okay cause it's winter and with the snow up here i'd prolly use the stock rims at this time anyways...

i want to drive everywhere lol it's so pretty

Welcome to the Fit Family and congrads on your new car. Glad to hear you are enjoying it - those cars just
really have a way of growing on you. Definitely slam the car with the tint, it just makes it looks so nice!
