Buying Honda Fit 2015 EX, need advice.
#21
My 6/2014 Fit has been perfect. I find this issue laughable. I'm sure some issues are real but there are also trolls out there.

Agreed there are always trolls.
My experience with first year Honda Motor Co. products makes me confident that the '16 Fits will have improvements, however minor, over the '15s, and will have fewer problems. From my experience, body integrity, fit/alignment/finish issues, and firmware are all likely candidates for improvements. I'm not knocking the '15s or Ceyala, though there are credible reports and I have seen minor fit/alignment issues on the lot on '15s, seemingly in inverse proportion to VIN/door jamb date. I am saying that Honda learns and improves as well as any other auto manufacturer.
Experience I draw from includes all these owned from new:
'86 Acura Integra LS 4dr MT (1st yr, J VIN)
'88 Honda Accord LXi 4dr MT (J VIN)
'92 Acura Vigor GS MT (1st yr, J VIN)
'92 Honda Civic Si (MT) (1st yr, 2 VIN)
'95 Acura Integra GS-R 4dr MT (J VIN)
'00 Honda CR-V SE (AT) (J VIN)
'04 Acura TL AT NAV (1st yr, 1 VIN)
'07 Honda CR-V EXLN (AT) (1st yr, J VIN)

I would offer something closer to MSRP, and get them to discount the remote start. My only regret is I did not negotiate the remote start in my deal. Now I find it too expensive to add, and I would not get the original warranty had I installed it at time of sale.
