Said by someone who is a VP of the company...
i never buy extended warranties. and for a car as reliable as the fit, would be a big waste of money...especially for those that work on cars.
also you can buy it at the end of your manufacturer warranty term if you decide to keep the car longer. no need to get rushed into extended warranties.

I hate spam. No matter how it's prepared.
edit: latest spammer splatted. Thanks mods! It's ok to keep Scott around to mock.
While touring the threads he spammed up I came across this one on Cecil's Straight Dope board. It's classic:

The entire conversation with a car salesman should consist of:
1. That one.
2. Here's a check.
3. No.
4. Repeat 3 until you're allowed to drive away.

Hi Folks: I am new to the Forum, and just bought a 2012 Fit Base MT. I love it (of course) after 140miles. I wonder if I made a mistake purchasing the Honda Care extended warranty. I paid a about 16,500 OTD for my car here in Oregon. The Honda Care cost an extra 1350 for bumper to bumper out to 72 months/ 120K miles. It sounds like this may not be necessary, as Honda has such a good reputation for reliability, but I don't know. This is my first brand new car. I can still repeal my decision and get a refund for the Honda Care. What say you?
