Newbie . Just landed a 08 sport auto.





Just purchased a 08 sport with automatic transmission and only 50,000 miles. New tires battery and all services for $1500. I think I did ok. It does have a dingy on driver's side rear door but I'm pretty sure a dent doctor can help make it look much better. Great site. Pictures coming soon. M

Congratulations on your new Fit. With only 50,000 miles it's just getting broken in. Many happy miles are ahead. -Enjoy

Went to get it inspected and because it sat with a dead battery it did not pass. Need to drive it 30 to 40 miles then take it back . I filled it with high test and put some miles on getting to know it. The paddle shifter works great . TPS is on . The PO must of hit a curb as the splash guard is in pieces so I ordered a OEM and some push clips. Not a fast car but handles great. M

Congrats on the car! That is a killer deal! Any plans to mod it?

No plans for mods yet. As for lowering ? No. It sits very low as it is. I can't drive it up my ramps and getting the rolling floor Jack under just makes it.
It needs the a good clean inside. PO was a smoker. And died a sad man. M
