Electron_si's 2012 TW Fit Sport

Just picked it up from the dealership last night. I took my wife in to test drive it and she was sold as soon as we left the lot. I was looking at the 11's primarily but im really glad i got the 12 now. It is an auto just because we have a baby so it makes it easier to not have to deal with shifting and the didn't have any manuals on the lot and the next projected was over a month away. The pinstriping from the picture was removed before i took delivery (it looked horrible) and they gave me a full tank of gas. All in all I'm really happy with my first NEW honda purchase

Price paid: 17,808 plus Tax (3.75%), Title, Doc, License = 18,999 OTD.

I'm in the military and we bought it at Sam Boswell honda right off FT Rucker so they gave me an excellent military discount with USAA pricing.

My son is 7 months old and he came and test drove the 11's with me and napped the entire time. I figured if he could sleep through me paddle down shifting on my test drive then it was definitely the car for us. Once i saw the 12 in person though the sale was done. The new wheels look perfect on the white car.

So far:
Rmv'd front license plate bracket (now i have a crappy looking hole in the front bumper)
Added Army Aviation sticker to rear window
License plate..Alabama only allows 20 days for registration...wtf

Glad you had the pinstriping removed as it does not look good on our cars and is obviously just a $ maker...hope they done a good job removing it. Nice looking Fit.

Yeah they did a good job removing it. they put it on like 2 days prior so the pinstriping was still pretty soft and hadn't adhered very well. New pinstriping is pretty easy to remove its the old stuff that is a bitch.

I was a porter/detailer for a toyota dealer in college so i used to help pinstripe and remove pinstripe from cars.

Congrats on the new car! You will love it!

Thank you for serving our country too.

3.75% on sales tax? Holy crap! That is low! It's like 10% where I live!

Thanks for the support. Wer are from ks with a 9.5% sales tax which is why we bought one down here. it just made the car that much cheaper.
