I like my Modern Steel Metallic paint. Around trees, it looks green, early afternoon, bronze, late afternoon, grey-bronze, in stormy weather, like an axe head, etc.; Expecting many more color nuances.

 

Looks like it is Civic motor which doesn't have DI tech like Fit and Accord motor. Not sure if it can match fit performance numbers. Honda might do quick refresh when they do DI tech with Civic motor.

 

Passion Berry Pearl is a pretty great feature but the best has to be that the car is small on the outside and big on the inside. It's insane how much room is inside this car.

 

We also have the Passion Berry Pearl, and love the fact it changes shades with the time of day! As for size, my daughter can bring all her stuff either to or from school, with room to spare!

 

When I bought mine, the sales guy said "we'll throw in wheel locks for 100$" so I said "uhhh no thanks".. he came back five minutes later and said they would just give me the wheel locks for free because they're already on the car and it's going to cost them money to take them off.

 

Smart Key + push button start

Left cupholder! As a leftie, I don't know that I'd want a car without one now.

 

I think that's how I got my mud splash guards; I never ordered or paid for them, nobody ever mentioned them, and I was happy to have them, so silence was golden all around!

 

I just ordered and received all-weather floor mats from Bernardi, good price and was delivered quickly.

 

Smart key/keyless ignition
It fits in my small garage with plenty of room to spare
I can fit 2 bikes inside
It reads texts to me

 

Delivered how quickly? I ordered my cargo area cover last Friday and UPS delivery is scheduled for Thursday (hopefully, despite the weather). Very anxious to see that installed. Enjoying your new ride I suppose?

 

Can we take a minute here for Refresh Mode?

 

I love the color. We were looking at what the dealer had in stock and they had only one blue metallic LX. As soon as we saw it in person, we had to have it. Seeing it in the sunlight is near magical.

I love the gas mileage, the Bluetooth integration, and I don't feel that we've lost much space compared to the Ford Taurus X that we came from. I would have liked to have bought an EX-L but the funds didn't allow.

Most of all, I'm happy to have peace of mind. We've had so many car problems the last two years and just trusting that it will start every day and make it to the destination is wonderful.

If you can't tell, I love my Honda Fit.

 

I believe it took about a week, but it was received at the very beginning of their estimated delivery period. And yes, I absolutely love this car.

 

How do you fit 2 bikes inside?
I took the front wheel off my bike and put it in sideways (with the back seats up). I had hoped I could fit 2 bikes in that way, but I don't think I can.

Did you put them in front to back, or side to side?
If front to back, can 2 people still sit in the front?

thanks, Etana

 

The headlights are so much brighter and larger longer area of light than my 1998 Civic, that I notice it happily every night (1 week old Fit).

I love how quickly it pairs with my iPhone.
I like that the doors lock automatically after I drive a few minutes.

 

Interesting... my EX came with one. (Canada)

 

One of the reasons I got the Fit is several people in my bike club have them (the older models) and I was always amazed that they could get 2 bikes in standing up. One guy said he actually gets 3 bikes in. I just bought my Fit so I haven't tried the bikes yet but I'm assuming it's still possible in the 3rd gen Fit. I'll keep my fingers crossed since I won't be putting the bikes in until it warms up here.

Try this:
Fold the rear seats down. Take the front tires off the bikes. Put the rear of the bike in first and wedge the rear tire between the front seat and the door. The bike should fit standing up as opposed to laying down. Repeat for the other bike on the other side of car. Good luck.

 

Lane watcher. Rush hour commute is so much easier with it. I keep it on when changing lanes from the carpool lane.

 

+1
That alone made me to buy EX instead of LX!

Inserting the key into key hole & turning... all seems so antique, probably from T-model era.

 

That's why!
