Lurker newb from Washington

My name is Bruce. I just purchased a TW 2009 Fit Sport with manual trans with 110000 miles. Whomever owned this car before me took great care of this car. The car had a significant car fax history, and looked to be dealer maintained. I plan on doing routine maintenance myself like on our other vehicles. The interior of my car is mint, and came with weathertech mats. The exterior is straight with minimal amount of dings given its age. The paint is starting to fade with much of the clearcoat gone. I have filled up the gas tank twice and love the mpg im getting. So far, im very happy with it. I can save stress of my other ride, 2014 f150 fx4 supercrew with 5.0 (only 17.0 mpg). Looking forward to learning the platform from others. I plan on getting 20% tint and upgrading audio system to some double din touchscreen format.

Welcome dude! That’s an amazing find, and sounds like you’ve got an upgrade path planned out! Sorry to hear about the paint, Red seems to age the worst, but sounds like you’ve got a handle on things!

wow, that's low mileage (practically brand new). A 20% tint would look awesome and totally transforms the appearance of the car. unfortunately in my state I can only get away with 50% in the front and %35 in the rear (i went 50% all around for the even look, so from some angles it doesn't even look tinted).

welcome, and good luck!
