New Fit by next week

Hello! Thanks to all of you who have responded to my questions about the Fit. I have been waiting since March and when the dealership got 2 Fits in last week they sold before they were unloaded off the truck . I was so disappointed because the VBP Sport A/T ended up being a Lunar Mist M/T base. They had a Red Milano Sport A/T but it was sold also before it was off the truck. I test drove a Civic LX but I just wasn't feeling it. So I drove by the dealership this afternoon and there is the Milano on the lot. I decide to stop and just look it over and of course a salesman approached me in seconds. He asked if I like the car and I said yes, but I understood it had been sold. He said no that the people could not get their loan and the deal fell through. So he goes and gets Lee who had tried to get me on Friday evening to tell me about the car but only had my work number. He got the keys and told me to test it out. I loved it, 2nd time behind the wheel of a Fit and the first time I wasn't ready to buy and did not realize how impossible it is to find one. I don't care about the gas tank - I just love this car. I tried to put down some money to hold it but he said after all I'd been through it was my car and we will work out the loan on Monday with my credit union. They are giving me $1,000.00 for my 96 Ford Ranger XLT which was great. It's been in an F1 Tornado and hit and run victim 4 years ago. Will add the cargo cover and chrome tail pipe later. Good things come to those who wait! Vanity Plate to Read:
Fit 2 Go or Fit 4 Fun.

MizFit - Congrads!!! Taffeta White is really pretty! Have you thought about a vanity plate - Miz Fit would be cute! I have changed my mind
twice now I am leaning towards PRFCTFIT or Fit 4 Fun Or Fit 2 Go.

Vanity Plates

Cat - I have been thinking about getting a vanity plate. MIZ FIT is one I've been tossing around. As well as, FITHPNS, HVNAFIT, and FITASTC. I really like PRFCTFIT too! I'm getting lots of suggestions from my coworkers too . No one I know has seen a Fit in person yet, so I'm getting a lot interest!

I guess I'll have to get to know her before I "brand" her for life!

Thanks!

Yes, I test drove my car yesterday and it was amazing how many people gave it the double look. Some guy in a red chevy truck pulled up beside me and he was really looking her over - could not have been looking at me because I was a mess! Had been working in the yard and cleaning up my old ride but they were looking! Wait until you get yours!

Congrads Again! I just picked mine up from the dealership today around 5:00 PM - this was the slowest day at work. I can't believe it is sitting
out front of my house and never having a vehicle with keyless remote - I keep checking to make sure it is really locked up!!! Anyway, enjoy your new Fit - I am trying to go out this weekend and take some pictures to post. May good fortune - health and happiness - follow us and our Fits on the road many years from now. Forgot to mention the dealership liked the idea of doing a vanity plate they took off $30.00 to basically pay for my first year free.
