Congrats Acter on the new Fit!!

My place is a Passion Berry on its way as we speak. It's only the second one we are receiving since the 2015 Fit was released.

Internally we know that the smallest percentage of build color will be Passion Berry, so its a rare color here in NJ.

Stooooopid snow.


Pearl looks great in my driveway, whenever she gets brushed off.

*sigh*

Have you had a chance to take her out at all? I wonder how she will handle the snow.

Also, now I'm noticing so many Fits on the roads of MA! It seems like they are everywhere - we have at least 3 that regularly park just on our floor of the parking garage. Makes me smile every time I see one.

I've still only seen 10 or so 2015 Fits here in the past 6 months. Makes me feel a little special.

I've seen just a handful of 2015s so far - maybe 4-5? But lots and lots of older ones, which also make me smile.

I have, but only for sbort trips. I have severe asthma, so have not been going out much (very cold air is not a good thing). I will say I've had no trouble. The rear camera could not have come at a better time -- no trouble backing out of our driveway between the 5 foot walls of snow. My husband could not have have come along at a better time, either, since he is the one blowing the snow. . (-:

Just kidding.

I did see two '15 Fits on Friday, and someone in my Quaker Meeting has one.

I have yet to see another PBP on the road except mine. It is the only color I seriously considered shopping
for the Fit. I've been 3 days now with claybar, polish and for a sealent ReJex. The love bugs will eat right thru wax if they stay on for more than a week. I have 3 coats on the hood and front bumper so far and I'll end up with the whole car done in within a week. It is great to start out with a new car as paint correction is minimal. Passion Berry really pops when polished and almost looks black.

Nice! I've not done that much.

The more I play with my new Fit the better I love the color! There's a poll now on the new GK colors and so far very few PBP are showing up. If you were in Florida you would have to get a good coat of wax at the least because of the bug problem. It's common here to have the front of your car repainted after only 2 or 3 years especially further south. I've seen love bugs so bad you have trouble seeing out of the windshield and will cause your car to overheat. It's a battle 2 or 3 times a year when they swarm. PBP looks deep and rich I'm so glad we went with it.
