I don't see that happening. If it did then The fit would compete with the civic. Which would be pointless for honda to make competititon for itself. I see the price going up $500-$1000 and honda making options for the Fit (ex. dead pedal, center armrest, Nav, ect.)

 

Oct 1st?? Cool...definetly look forward to checking every little detail of the 2nd gen. I wonder when Honda will halt production of the 1st gens.

 

Sure, I'll try to get to it tonight

 

Thanks! I'll keep an eye out for it...

 

That would be great! How about a TW while you're at it?!

 

On page 61 of this thread it has the autoblog & egmcartech base price at $14,620 which is an increase of $670.

 

Dang that black P shopped 09 loooks BOMB!

Tyler

 

Can do!

 

Guag, is this the US model you're photoshopping or the JDM? I can't tell them apart from that 3/4 view (but i sure can from the side)... just wondering. Nice work BTW!

 

US model. and thank you... the main reason I did that is because I was pretty sure that I wanted an 09 in black, but hadn't seen pictures of any.... well now that I can see what it will most likely look like, I definitely want one

I'll try to find the original pic that I based it off..



EDIT: ah, here it is...

 

We need a Tafetta White shot!

 

I like the Gauges in the 09 thats about it. the dash looks bare with all the knobs on the driverside and all the buttons on the steering wheel. also i dont like the exterior styling it looks like the new mercades/yaris/matrix/versa all mixed together.......... hmmm i guess thats why i bought an 08

 

Seems like just a drop makes the 2009 Fit look at least 10x better haha!

Tyler

 

I completely agree... stock looks like a 4x4 in comparison haha

 

Ok? Couldn't you have added this to the other eleventy billion threads on the 09 Fit?

 

hey guag sorry if it bothers you but a friend and I chopped more the picture. BTW we leaves you your sig.

I want one, definitely

 

No problem man, that looks even better now!!

 

I read the most of the thread for the past couple months or so, but did not see any conformation on AWD. But I saw this:

"New to 2009, owners can now choose between front and all-wheel drive."

This is the link, four paragraphs down. I know that the Japanese 1st already have the option of AWD (right?), so now being "able to choose" means the rest of us can have it too? I'll be pissed if only the Canadians get it.


sorry if this is a repost, I must have missed it...

 

^^^ damn this fit looks tight. where's the tw love?

 

I think that the author of the linked article is mixing stuff up. He/she says this, quote:

"Transmission choices for the new Fit include a five-speed automatic, a five-speed manual and a CVT automatic."

Well, in North America, we will get the first two, but not the CVT. So which market is the author referring to? Or is the author talking only about the aggregate global market? Problematically, his/her word on AWD is in a sentence immediately preceding the transmission talk. The author simply says,

"New for 2009, owners can now choose between front and all-wheel drive."

The targeted market is again not specified. Since in Japan they have always had the choice between FWD and AWD, the author must be talking about a different market. As far as I know, there are no plans to introduce the AWD Fit in the U.S. So where else? We cannot tell from this article....
