What did you trade in for your New 3rd Gen Honda Fit?

Hello Boys and Girls,

So yesterday a customer of mine traded in a 2008 BMW X5 for a 2015 Honda LX CVT. They love their new Fit, very impressed by amount of space, standard features and the big improvement in MPG they are expecting.

This got me curious to see what other FitFreak members traded in for their new 3rd Gen Fit. So share with us below. What did you trade and which Fit and trim did you go with? And if you could include pics of the before car and your new Fit, that would be very cool.

So who is going to be #1 on the list?

Let the show begin!!

2008 Toyota Prius. Surprisingly, paying less for the Fit and more on gas balanced out paying more for the Prius and less on gas.

My signature says it all, trading Fits up every few years. One of the few to own all 3 generations of Fits!

That's pretty cool and you brought in a good point. You really have to look at the big picture when comparing/buying a new car.

Price car or monthly payment + gas + plus = what it really costs you a month.

Then you have maintenance, resale value and what not.

Congrats on the Fit. What trim did you go with?

Curious as to why the trade so soon. The current gen Accord is awesome. Actually, both the Accord and Fit are awesome cars.

Congrats!!

That's awesome.

I wonder. Since you could probably fit a Fit in an F150 (joking), which one has the bigger interior?

Nice. Having sold Lexus up until recently, the RX330 is a very smooth ride. The Fit is a really fun car.

What do you think of the Fit so far?
