Smile Hi, I'm new here!



Soo for some weird reason I thought it might be a good idea to buy a Honda Fit. I don't know why but I liked the fold down rear seat dealy so I could throw a ton of crap back there and haul it around while getting 44.6 mpg ... and yes, that was my last mileage reading, it's pretty amazing.

My Fit is a 2008 bare bones, silver thing with 14' tires and ugly black steel rims. It has faded headlights and it looks like I'm on welfare or something, but I'm not really, I just didn't know they made snazzier versions of the car. So the gray dud mobil cost me $4700 which was quite a bit for a Fit, but the key is, it's a southern car with no rust and it only has a measly 59,000 miles on it, plus it's a 5 speed stick which is cool.

Anyway, I do like driving it but started thinking about an upgrade. I found an upgrade but I don't think it's truly an upgrade. It's a 2009 Rev2 Fit Sport!! Wow, this is a much better car than the first one. The only thing is, it has a little bit of rocker rust, has 197,000 miles, the guy smoked so the interior stinks, it was hit lightly in the rear and totalled, so has a salvage title, but it has all the snazzy sport options with an auto and only cost $2800... which isn't too terribly bad.

I have version III planned already! It will be a Rev2 again but will have something like 50,000 miles, one owner, all the options, no rust and will only be $3500. I can't WAIT!!

I found this site because I picked up some Mini cooper wheels this evening - 4 for $100 and not in bad shape, but was researching to see if they were compatible with the Honda. They are 16" and will fit the Fit or else I'll have a fit. I'll maybe post some pictures tomorrow if this site lets me.

Thank you for reading this far. I'm happy to have found this place.
