After four Fits, I'm finished!



It drove off yesterday. No more Fits!

Also, I still have some parts collecting dust in my apartment. Buy them!

You must be the only person in the USA that can say they have own four in such a short life span of the fit being imported. What made you decide not to keep the last car. Lack of aftermarket parts? Or just a need to change to something different?


Good Luck.

I am very curious as well. How come you have owned so many in such a short span and how come you decided to get rid of them?

2010 Sport Auto - Owned for two years until I decided I wanted a manual
2012 Sport Manual - (White). Totaled about 3 months in
2012 Sport Manual - (Red). Bought in a pinch because I couldn't find another white one.
2012 Sport Manual - (White). Traded the red one for it when pricing was right. Recently decided to move downtown where roads are too rough for a lowered car.

Three in the same model year has to be a record. Good luck.

So its not the car itself, just the crappy roads make the driving an un-fun thing to do . . . . .

Constantly swerving to avoid rough roads and no sidewall to soak them up means one annoying drive home.

Why dint you just lift the car up? To me it just seems kind of silly to get rid of a car just because of bad roads when you could have made changes to the car. What are you picking up to replace the Fit?

Overall if you did not move would you of kept your Fit or was it time to find something else? Having purchase four Fits you cannot say that you did not like the car.

Was the reason I got my Fit originally was ordering a Focus ST but the wife, "You'll shoot your eye out!" oops I mean, "You'll get more speeding tickets!".
