I've got a yellow 6 speed LX and love the color, but its not the "Integra R" yellow i had in mind, its a little faded and white yellow, not the darker, louder yellow i wish it was.

The "Minion" Yellow Fit is fated and white yellow compared to the Integra R yellow? OMG, I don't want to see it, it would put my eyes out! The ugliest color I see all to regularly is that neon green Kia Soul, without the hamsters.

I've seen the yellow Fits up close and personal, not a color I'd want to live with for the rest of my life (I just turned 75). That's not the color I was referring to, it was the Integra R hue. To my less than perfect memory, I've never seen that, either live or on the web. I have been unfortunate enough to see all together too many of the Kia Soul version of neon green.

I'm just sick of seeing so many grey, black, and blue cars. I blame the german car companies. Getting cars in dumb colors from now on (Like that Kia green, or Orange, or Yellow) is my silent protest against the silver tidal wave. I had the Integra Yellow in mind when i bought it.

First post but I wanted to say thank you to everyone for posting photos of your yellow fits!

I put a deposit down on MY yellow lx fit which should be here in about 2 weeks.

I'd originally had my heart set on the gray. My current (and first) car is a gray toyota corolla and I loved how well the color hid dirt and how it looked expensive. But after a month of looking, my dealership couldn't get its hands on a gray LX. After seeing this post, I gave the yellow a look. When I was 16, I had my heart set on a yellow VW bug. My dad got me one...well, a toy model of one. haha. The more I stared at the yellow fits, the more interested I got. I eventually drove to the next city over to look at a gray EX-L and was seriously underwhelmed.

I drove back home and then drove to the NEXT city over to look a yellow EX my dealership had in the showroom. Immediately fell in love!

I'm just sad I have to wait until mine arrives.

I said that when I bought my car.

I'm still saying it and STRONGLY urge anyone with an ounce of sanity to purchase RED for now on. Or gray and blend in with the masses. It'll resale well. Etc, etc.

The Fit owners who picked Passion Berry Pearl consider the Yellow Fit owner like a kinda cousin. .

If you're already buying an economical hatchback why the heck not go for the goofy sports car colors? The "Resale" idea is a hack, a well maintained high miles or old car looks like a deal no matter what color it happens to be. If anything im bored with typical colors silver, black, grey and white. Hell, some cars are only available in those colors!

I was considering the yellow, but I went with the pearl white 2016 fit.
The dealership had both, but it looked like a really pale yellow, whereas the internet pictures had more of a gold color.
I know its sitting in the shade, but it just didn't appeal to me.
Now, if I could get that Sunset Orange in the US, it would have been a no challenge (my first fit was orange revolution metallic, hehe).
