I thought the same thing when I first joined the forum. More Fits the better.

And what if it is a 400lb sweaty fat dude like on 'Gamer' that just says yes to being a girl because how would you really know the truth?

Point is, does it even matter?

Like I said pooh-san likes honey.

You socal people don't know what its like living in the midwest with a little japanese car. We aren't accepted out here yet. GM and Ford trucks depend on my region to keep truck sales alive. Everyone's still "Buy American - even if it's crap" out here.

I had a 98 base black. Auto tiptronic. Kinda sad that I went from a 2.2L to a 1.5. Lol. I loved that car but abused the hell out of it n couldn't keep up with the maintenance cuz of my high mileage. So I traded it in for my fit. My sn was xangelicxbaybeex on socalprelude

if a 2.2 to a 1.5 is sad... What am I? I went from the VQ35 to the L15... a drop of 2L and 2cyl.

I had an 86 Si 2.0 Prelude and while it actually had less power than the Fit, I still miss it. that thing was sweet in the corners with my Integra 14" wheels and Bridgestone Potenzas - upgrade from the 13" stockers.

It's funny, we don't have that issue here with a few exceptions (NewEngland). The funny part is my Ridgeline is more American than my Co-Workers Dodge Ram or PT Cruiser

Try living in Alabama! Its worse here... especially when backwoods redneck kids get their hands on old crx's and rust them out for fun. No joke. Doesn't help the image...

i went from a 4.3L v8 to the L15. love the gas mileage difference for sure. ...although alot of comfort n space. oh well. my main priority was getting the house.
