Excited I just reserved my first ever new car. I've always driven used older cars. But decide it was time for something new.
I reserved a white fit LX cvt that is being made in August.

But I also wanted to make note that if you are in the California Bay Area (East Bay) That Walnut Creek Honda is top notch. I've been working with Zack my sale rep for a bit and he's been more than helpful and very transparent. I normally don't talk about buying experiences but I know finding a good if not great car sales person can be hard. Zack knew his stuff and has been more than patient with me and keeps me updated on everything I would like to know. He is I believe an actual honest car sale person that isn't pushy at all.

I'm happy to finally be getting my new car soon.

Also Walnut Creek Honda just got in 2 grey LX cvts and 1 silver EX-L that arn't presold yet if anyone is looking in the area. The white one that came in I wanted was presold so I have to wait for another one. I posted some photos in the white fit thread.

 

Congrats on your incoming BRAND NEW GK Fit!!!! From the feedback reported by current LX & EX owners, your in for years of driving pleasure w/ better than EPA Mileage.

We're all happy for you too!!!!

Photos posted are nice but the ones of your incoming GK will be even better!!!

In the meantime while you wait, keep your mind busy. Don't end up like me. Started buying all sorts of "add-ons" and still no Fit.

 

Haha Yeah I need to order the cargo cover and floor mats online. Also want to get the Mugen cargo area mats.

Went with the CVT just for better mpg and I've gotten lazier over the years when it has come to driving. I mostly just want to get in and go plus others could drive it if need be. Even though I grew up driving manuals and enjoy the more connected sportier drive. I figured the small percentage I'd take it out wanting it be manual for driving on mountain back roads doesn't outweigh the every day driving and commuting so I opted for the CVT. It was a hard choice though.

 

Congratulations!
I know you'll love it when it gets here. Just be prepared for the wait to be difficult.
I've never had to wait for a car to be delivered before so I'm having a very difficult time being patient. But when it gets tough I just remind myself that at least I haven't had to wait as long as Rottboy!

 

hey I am in the bay area, do you mind giving us a break down of what you are expecting to pay?

 

Well I just put 1k down to reserve the specific one I want. Believe the break down was around 17k even for the cvt Lx then with CA sales tax which was like 1400 dmv registration was around 230 was about 19k out the door.

I'll be putting 8k total down and my payments came out to 193 a month for 60 months at 1.9%
