Oh guess what... I bought a FIT!
Yup. Just got a brand new (16 miles) white 2010 Fit Sport from Hennessy Honda in Woodstock Georgia on Wednesday, the 2nd of March. I went through USAA's car buying service, and got the car for $17,500 out the door.
It's going to be my daily driver. Prior to this I had a G35 sedan (as shown below). Work has had me driving more and transporting more, so the FIT was a great fit
Since purchasing, I tinted the windows (20%) today (not pictured), and have ordered:
OEM Floor Mats
Broadway 270mm Convex Mirror
Red H Badges from Decaldude for the front, rear and key
And I plan to order within the next few days:
JDM non-LED Taillamps
JDM reverse lamp sockets
OEM steering wheel controls
OEM Variable intermittent wiper stalk
And in the next month:
Wheels & Tires
Suspension (Shocks & springs or coilovers, and possibly sway bars)
So far the car is very fun, I am averaging 35-40mpg on the 150 miles I have put on the car. It's got a great amount of room!!
Oh, and here is my toy car :
Which is actually for sale as well ($10,500) as I want to start another project car.
It's a 1995 Mazda Miata with a lot of parts (I wont bore you with a parts list) but it makes 281hp and 268tq.

Not sure where you're getting your JDM tails but make sure they are including the bulbs/socket if you are getting them from another member.

Congrats on your new Fit. It's a great car, you are going to enjoy it.
If you haven't already done so, I would advise investing in a good after-market alarm. Many members on this forum (including myself) have had their wheels stolen, hate to have it happen to another Fit owner.

I meant don't keep it in there overnight. Of course you need it in the car when it's in use. You don't be dumb.

ok that's fine that's why I asked. To be honest an alarm is just a deterrent as well. If they know you have an alarm all they have to do is break your window pop the hood and disconnect the battery. All we have is deterrents that's why I'm thankful for a garage. I had an alarm on my integra but that didn't stop them from still breaking my window and ripping out my radio.

I changed my little side marker lights to PIAA yellow ones (didn't list that because I already had the bulbs) Thanks for the pictures though!
I went through Danny on the forums, and he stated he will be including sockets.
I'll have to look into an alarm or/and a set of wheel locks. Though I haven't had any issues with any of my other cars (knock on wood!)
