New Owner

Hello!

I'm a new member, I've been browsing for a while though. Thanks to a lot of information I picked up from this forum I'm the new owner of a 2013 Fit Sport 5mt in Taffeta White. Great little car, probably the most cleverly engineered small car I've seen in a while.

Yay! Manual transmission FTW! Now you have to do the gutter guard condenser protection mod, get some tint and order some nice Clazzio seat covers.

I'm already planning on putting together some sort of protection for the AC condenser, can't leave that all out in the open.

Here's some pics.

The top pic is nice: sorta Norman Rockwelly. "Fit Waiting for Snow."

Don't sweat the grill protection. All Hondas and about half of the other cars on the roads have wide openings in the lower grill. Unless you plan on the Baja 500 it's not a great concern.

The Fit didn't have to wait long, I was driving an old 328i for a few years, and part of the reason I went with the Fit was so I could have something that would actually let me get out of the driveway in the winter.

Welcome! And great choice in getting a manual! I'm a fairly new member here, as well, and recommend a nice set of all-weather mats as a first upgrade. Husky and 3D/Aries liners are the two faves of folks here.
