15 Fits spotted at a local Honda dealer, guess how many manuals?



There were two Sport models, and I didn't check if any were DX. All 15 were autmatics. Talk about a great selection...

Here's the only manual I saw on the lot.



Mine!

It's not too many. Most of the big Canadian dealers will get more Fits than a few US dealers combined.

Biggest Honda dealer in the province gets what, 60 a month?

I just picked up my milano red Fit Sport from Dow Honda yesterday. I couldn't find a manual anywhere in Ottawa, Montreal or Toronto. I know there seems to be a superiority complexe among manual tranny Fit owners but I tried the sport automatic and thought the paddle shifts were really pretty damn good and decided to get the auto instead. I'm very happy with my choice and the car defintely is a lot more fun to drive than my 2005 Toyota Echo RS. (5 speed manual)
We should organize an Ottawa area meet sometime.
