Just got the same car here in Elgin, IL. $16.5k including destination. Then a $500 dealer package and $1500 in taxes and fees and we were out the door at $18.5k. Now spending another $500 on tint, floor mats, seat covers, visors.

I just bought a 2010 orange Fit Sport AT in Southern California for $17,025 plus tax and title ($18,900 OTD). Amazingly, the dealership didn't try to tack on any accessories or extras to bulk the price up

I've only driven it about 20 miles, and love it!

I bought my Orange Revolution back in January, had started out shopping for Red, but could only find Reds with AT. So I went with Orange MT and now I can't imagine owning a Fit in any other color!

Hey everyone, just bought a 2010 Fit Sport 5-speed manual without Navi in Blackberry Pearl. I got them to throw in the Bluetooth parts and labor for free. They also waived fees for location and delivery (the car is coming from Boston). All in all, I paid a little under sticker (about $200 under).

Super excited to pick it up on Friday!

I just picked up a 2010 Sport Auto in Storm Silver Metallic (no MT to be had ANYWHERE!) for $16,500. Total OTD was right at $18K. So far I am quite impressed overall, it's a slick little car. Insurance on it is a little higher than I'd like, but I have a teenage daughter so insurance on anything is higher than I'd like.

My only complaint is the semi-awkward driving position (I'm 6'0 and have long legs) - it feels a little short on legroom and I feel too far away from the steering wheel when the seat is all the way back. A little more thigh support would be awesome as well. I suppose I'll get used to it eventually.

Aside from that, it's great so far. For the price, I couldn't find anything else even remotely close.

Hi, everyone! My name is Elisa, and I just bought a 2010 Fit Sport AT with navigation and VSA in Storm Silver Metallic. I totaled my 2007 Ford Focus hatchback a couple of weeks ago (and am lucky to be alive, frankly; the car flipped onto its roof, and the seatbelt saved my life) and had had my eye on the Fit since it came out in 2007, anyway, even though my Focus was good to me. I haven't actually driven the Fit yet, haha, but I will be picking it up from my local dealer today. By the way, I paid a little less than sticker price (and had $3,500 to put down) and cashed in on the 1.9% financing for 60 months, so my payments are a breeze!

I'm very excited to get out of work today, drop off my silly rental, and go drive my Dolly (full name: Silver Dollar )!

bought my 2010 Honda Fit Sport - in Storm Silver Metallic (popular colour as of late?) abt 2 weeks ago. didn't get much of a deal on her, but i feel she's worth EVERY red canadian cent. (a shame since the US/Cnd $ are almost at par yet canadians pay nearly 2k more and lose sooo many features! boourns.) regardless. gotta say this forum played a HUGE role in influencing me to get the FIT! so thanks!!

mods so far: tinted windows (med.dark, got it hooked up somewhere for cheap and done professionally)

mods coming soon: heading down to the states and get myself a mugen front under spoiler.. wont be cheap, but will be worth it!! more pics to come shortly!

Just traded in my 2005 Mini Cooper for a Fit Sport in blackberry pearl. About $17500 OTD, before the trade-in of course.

I'm going from a MT to an AT. Not gonna miss it with the stop-and-go traffic here.

Hi guys

Just bought a new 2010 Jazz 1.4 Comfort I-Shift and I'm very pleased, just to expensive here in Denmark compared to other in the same class, but its the danish tax systems fault, I paid 200000 Kr same as 32000 $ or 23500 £ 27000 €

I picked mine up on April 2nd, 2010.
It was a birthday present so I cant say exact price. BUT with all adds-on, I would say it was about $21k. I will put link for where my pictures are below. My husband put ever Mugen accessory he could, except for the rear view mirror cover (which I didnt want anyway). He also got me a K&N filter for it. Little accessories here and there. Nothing else big. I love it so much

Oh yeah, I've fiddled with various combinations of steering wheel tilt/telescope/seat angles and still find the driving position to be awkward, but I'm slowly getting used to it. The main problem, I think, is the lack of tilt adjustment and thigh support in the front seat.

Would you mind posting what you paid or the dealer you went with? I'm in the Vancouver area and looking to purchase a Fit shortly.

New 2010 Red Honda Fit Sport - yumm

Bought my 2010 Red Honda Fit Sport yesterday and drove it home today. I waited a day to drive the car home because the 'finance guy' at the dealership told me that if I drove off the lot - that I would lose any discount on the 1600.00 Platinum Warranty service. So - I left it there I did my research and went back with a quote for 785 for the same 6yr/120,000 mile warranty from a different Honda/Acura dealer selling Honda Care over the internet. The finance guy from the second day simply cautioned me to make sure I'm buying from an authentic honda dealership - if I do buy away from the place I purchased my car.
When I went back to pick it up - it was all smiles. I paid 18,988 total including 7%taxes/tag/and that oh so necessary 'dealer prep' --- God, I love pinstripes ;\. I was given a 3.9% loan from Honda America for 60 months. with 3Grand down - my payments are 290.00 a month.

The red color is rich, polished plastic shiny, and sexy - the rear compartment spare tire cover is FLIMSY. Geez. Otherwise - so very happy with my 1 day of driving. My first trip home with a full tank from the dealership averaged 48.1 mpg in a mix of heavy to moderate Atlanta northbound afternoon traffic flow. in 2 hours of driving I managed to use 3 of the available cupholders alone in my car. iPod interface worked well with my iPhone.
oh, and it's got a nice tail ....

the Fit isn't on sale really. ended paying MSRP got a few extras (wheel locks, carpets, free oil changes for 2 yrs and a full tank of gas - $30 will fill 'er up.)
got the $1000 rebate, but yeah. nothing too special. bought it from Happy Honda in North Burnaby. they have a few honda Fits in different colours and transmissions. regardless the FIT is an amazing car!
