$9700 after repairs with all genuine honda parts, drivers airbag was replaced, the car is mint and you would never know it was in an accident.

so you have had your honda fit for a year plus now? Have you used your warranty yet? Who does your oil changes?
I have talked with 3 fit owners, none have used their warranty

I use Mobil 1 5w20 with honda oil filters

i went through the same thing, i was looking for a used car, drove the fit loved it and then went out looking for the best deals, i wanted a warrenty mostly for peace of mind becuase i do alot of driving 30,000+ a year, after 3 months of looking i i got a 2010 fit sport at for a little under invoice at 1.9 percent for 60 and with 9 grand down that gave me 170 dollar payments, with no penalty for early payment. all the used cars i looked at had way higher intrest rates and they were realy not a hole lot cheaper then the new ones, just my 2cents

Well if you are still looking at used, consider that a 2008 Fit Sport Auto with 24k miles still retails for what a new one can be had for, so it makes sense to stay on the lookout for new deals.

not quite. your choices of slurs have no connection to a sexual preference.

of course, a car is not a same-sexed human being so his mind was on gay sex for sure.

the correct word is: objectophiliac

Nah, if anything, the OP did not want to be belittled or accused of being a homosexual (gay). And to me he did not sound being anti-gay himself with that sentence. my

I was going to sell my 2009 Honda Fit and get a Mini Cooper, but I was told that everyone would accuse me of being a bestialist.

I just got a 2008 fit sport m/t with just 19,000 miles for $11,500 for my wife! I like the car too, and drive it sometimes.....Silver in color, I had to drive a few hours to buy it and meet the owner a couple times , but it was worth it, the dealer is just a rip off on any used car man!!!!!

Yeah, because being belittled or accused of being gay is insulting, right? /s. Too some it is, hence the assumption they don't like gays, ergo homophobic.

You're right that statement wasn't homophobic as much as it was childish and immature.

It made absolutely no sense and in my opinion was a contemporary youth's tasteless attempt at humor that us old folks just don't get (yes I am calling you old hahaha).

Everyone, please don't waste your time pretending you were offended.

Ah, the even more mature calling the person criticising an immature gay remark, gay. Bravo!

Both you and the op are free to make those comments, as I am free to comment on their immaturity.
