New here :)

Hi all,

I don't know if this is the right place to post an introduction, but i figured i'd introduce myself here on the forums. My name is Damon and i've been eyeing the Fit ever since i saw it in person here in SoCal. I don't own one yet, but am seriously considering it when my beloved 00 Prelude dies. I also currently own a 05 G35 Coupe, but the gas prices are forcing me to only use it as my weekend toy. Anyways here's some pics taken on Sunday (12/30/07) with a buddy of mine... his is the Black Prelude, the G is mine:










And a couple pics of my prelude right before it went downhill with accidents and a blown tranny. No current pics as it's a pretty sad thing to see



I don't post much as i more or less lurk. I get bored while at work so visiting forums helps me pass the time.

Thanks for looking!

Very nice cars man. I really like the Prelude. Im huge fan of G's aswell but i personally think they look worse with mods then they do stock lol. Anyway, welcome to FitFreak!

Thanks for moving the thread to the correct forum!

I agree with you on the G. All i've done is add the OEM front lip spoiler, the roof spoiler, and the Volks. Nothing else major. Only minor mods. I'm not into the huge/crazy body kits. I like my cars to have clean lines and not stand out too much.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome and the compliments!

Yeah the more i looked at your the more it grew on me and you really did tasteful mods on it. Its just such a badass car to begin with lol. I really hate when people put exhaust on there G's or even Z's. G's and Z's sound perfect stock, they have a great note. When people put exhaust on them they just sound like rice. I love your rims on the G!

Hahaha... yah, i'm definitely considering a Fit. I can't stray away too far from the Honda family, and i seriously need a car with good gas mileage.

And that's the whole reason why i bought the G and didn't change out the exhaust. The G coupe has (IMO) the sexiest stock exhaust note. Why change it?

Very nice prelude. Clean as heck. Keep that baby looking pretty because you don't know what you've got until you start to lose it.

I'm sad for my prelude.
