so i was driving home tonight on the 10 east around 1030pm...and i drove on the second lane normal speed, and i drove by a Black integra GSR (with the DOHC VTEC badge) who was in third lane. immediately, i see him switch to my lane behind me and he had HIDs and he flash his high beams at me. Im like wtf. didnt pay attention..he tailgates and followed me for a good 1-2 mile. then drove off.

Anything is basically good drunk food.

BOOOOO!!!!

 

Good afternoon!

 

I would change lanes let him pass then hi beam him non stop.

 

hahaha mike this is EXACTLY what i do...

 

Don't worry about it. All sorts of cars want to race me when I'm driving the GE8. I don't even bother, unless there are some corners.

 

why would people want to race a fit? i think they know its slow and they will beat it..thus making them feel better. lol

or do you guys think the fits are the next "ricer" cars...moving away from the civics (non-si of course)

 

I have no clue... All sorts of cars like to race Fits. I've had Mustangs try to race me.

 

soooo...........i heard today from my brother that honda has issued a recall for our FIT's. something about a leak in the hatch that might cause a electrical fire or short out.

someone confirm! haha

 

Master window switch on GD models

 

I found this one... doesn't really affect us though.. we live in cali.

^^ Is that an older recall?

I read somewhere that it had to do with some sort of switch shorting or catching on FIRE O_O

Now that I think about it, once after it rained, I was driving and couldn't put my window up until I pulled over and turned the car off and then turned it on again. I don't know if that has anything to do with anything, but maybe I should get it checked out

 

ODI - Office of Defects Investigation

that is basically the only recall for both GD years.

 

There's a thread in the GD section for the recall.

 

link if you can.

 

ill try and verify.

 

hmmm soo do we wait for the recall letter, or do we go straight to the honda dealers to get it fixed? hopefully it shouldn't take too long to fix
