i got a bug up my a55 a week ago for the new GK fit. called around and spoke to a bunch of dealers, and today i picked mine up. 2015 Fit EX white orchid 6MT.





traded in my stripper 12' kia rio. 150 miles this afternoon, and so far so good, but i have a host of work to do to get the car where it "clicks" with me.

 

F^ck yah looks awesome, best color for this car, can't wait to see how you personalize it.

 

ap2, eh? i had a cr and still have a grand prix white ap2 as well...

 

Congrats on your purchase. That white looks beautiful on that car. Surprised you were able to get your hands on a manual tranny one.....a white one at that.

 

this is by my hood. grats on the white!

 

MY04 Ap2 has been my daily for the last 3 years & love it, can't wait for my EX 6MT to show up. You hold down the east coast with your white girls and I got the west coast handled. Genius color & car combo if I must say so. how are you liking the gearbox in the FIT so far? I'm planning on a countersunk knob until a short shifter gets released.

 

I'm jealous. I had to wait weeks for my M/T, but I'm still happy for you.

 

Congrats on your new toy! She looks awesome! Are you doing auto cross?

 

thanks. there were a bunch of silver ones that sold very quickly, and this one popped up so i jumped on it. was at the dealer when they opened up.

yep, got it in dirty jersey... i live an hour and a half north.

i tried a few diff knobs that i had at the house (CR, moddiction weighted and custom delrin ball) and i am content with the stock knob for now.

thanks. lucky i guess, right place, right time.

she is primarily a commuter, but who am i kidding... i will probably prep it for STF. oh, check my front plate holder...



wifey driving it on the way back from dinner...

 

Awesome ride! I'm in Stewartsville, most likely pretty close to you. I'm waiting on my white ex 6spd to show up, hopefully within the next few days. Glad to see some pics and see how good it really looks in white

 

Please post your thoughts on the manual transmission.

 

Having both a manual and a CVT it's no contest. The manual is hands down more fun to drive. Shifter is like all Honda shifters, direct and easy to shift.

 

clutch take up is light, but easy to read.

shifter is very crisp for a cable actuated unit. it is no s2000 shifter, but it is nicer then most.

gearing is short, especially 2nd gear. the car seems to make more noise than others in the category.
