New Fit Freak

Hi All! I'm a new to the forum.

I just purchased a 2012 Honda Fit Sport in Orangeburst Metallic. I absolutely love it!

I look forward to learning from the folks here and maybe completing a mod or two. So far I've been researching a cargo tray and center console.

All the best!

Edit: I added a picture. It's not the best, as it's inside the garage.

Hey Fitfan,

Have to say I sure know the feeling, I've got an identical twin to yours that I just purchased this past Monday with 4mi on the odometer.

I'm really smitten with the Fit, love the new 2012 design changes and really enjoy how the car handles. Sure put some pleasure back into driving.

Was the OBM your first color choice?

GTRPLYR,

It's a fun car to drive for sure. I'm truly amazed about all the cargo area. We were looking at a Ford Focus. I know the Focus isn't considered in same class, since it's a compact. The Focus was very limited in the back seats and cargo space.

I went into dealership thinking something gray or blue, when I saw the OBM I loved the look of it on the Fit. Looks more like a burnt orange. Congrats on your new Fit!

The cargo area was one of the big selling points for me as well. The "magic seat" flipping up even gives more cargo options that no other car had.

Burnt orange is a pretty good way of describing the color. I had previously seen the Revolution Orange and I think Orange Burst Metallic is an improvement.

At first I was considering the Chevy Sonic but the more I weighed things out the Honda just kept coming out on the top of my list.

The orange is gorgeous!!!! --- Kind of makes me wish I had waited for a 2012. Congratulations on your new fit. BTW, I am from Atlanta, too.
