new to the Fit world

Hey guys, new to the forum, just traded in my 2004 Jeep Liberty for a 2009 Honda Fit Sport with A/T (yeah, not M/T but i hate M/T for city driving). I almost got a newer Mini Cooper S but the wife actually saw the Fit and fell in love with it.
I'm not new to the Honda world, I've owned a few Civics over the years and I currently have a B18B1 swapped EG Civic coupe.

Although this little car lacks power, i can't complain about the 39mpg we get on the highway. Like I said before we had a Jeep and it was getting 19mpg on the highway and it was putting me in the poor house. The car is stock for now but i plan on getting some black 16"s, lowering springs, intake and maybe do some interior work.

Here's some pics!

Nice Fit! I got the same colour as you. She gets dirty very easily. I wish all parking spaces are that large

thanks! i just spent $9 washing it and it LITERALLY looked like crap the next day. I'm in Oklahoma and it's very dusty out here because of the wind and sand coming from the desert. Now like i said before i'm not new to the Honda world BUT what do you guys recommend for an intake on these things? I normally go with generic intake tubing with a good filter (AEM right now). I've been looking around and i see a few different ones but i don't know what's better for the price with these cars.
