Ultra Expensive Bicycle Article: Honda Fit quoted in Jest
This article waxes and wanes eloquently about the Merckx EMX-525 racing bicycle, that sells for $13,500, and up to $15,000, depending on options
We are famous. I do not agree with the writer's implication that the Honda Fit does not have brilliant engineering. Talk to me after you get a full sized dresser into the back of your compact car. Or 3 full sized racing bicycles.

We paper the walls of our childhood bedrooms with the objects of our desire. No one grows up dreaming about owning a Honda Fit – we long for the Bugatti and the Learjet, no-holds-barred machines with exquisite parts and brilliant engineering.

This author suffers from Fit envy, but he doesn't know it. FitFreak community, how can we help this poor, misguided, physiologically disturbed person?

The Fit is a worthy successor to the cars I desired as a boy, and I'm a happy guy.
