Super New 2013 Owner

Hello all!
I just went from a 2007 BMW 335i to a 2013 Fit with Nav (long story on why the Nav), and I'm growing really fond of the Fit. Before that, I had an '04 Neon.
Color is Midnight Plum.

Despite only getting the car about two weeks ago, I've already done some really basic mods, including green LED rear plate/cargo/dome lights and
HELLA Headlight bulbs are on the way (I'll write up a review and get pictures when they get here).

I've already learned a LOT just from reading around here, and now want to contribute. I'll put a couple of pictures up later, when I get home. One of daytime to show off the new Plum color and one later to show off the green LEDs. I haven't seen anyone do a green on purple thing around here.

So, yea, I look forward to becoming a contributing member and joining the vaunted V-TEC club and being one of -those- people.

Congrats!!! I love my 2012 Sport and I'm coming from a 600HP Supercharged 2011 Mustang

This little Fit continues to impress at 19K miles and I've added Swift springs and Progress rsb 205 tires for much improved handling.

Cool, I'm not alone in making large leaps into different territory. I, too, plan on making some enhancements. Of course, what would be the point of being here if I didn't?

I'll get pictures today, I hope.

Not missing the muscle? I am thinking of going the same route as you.

I traded in a 2011 Civic LX coupe for the Fit Sport just a couple weeks ago. Not much of a transition but I do think the Fit has a higher quality build in terms of the front quarter panel and bumper connections and the interior. I had issues with the Civic in that regard. So far so good with the NBP Fit Sport.

I will say I really do miss my twin turbos. And my 7.2 audio...and the rediculous comfort and prestige.
But I don't miss not being able to haul stuff around. Back seats down 24/7. I also don't miss the mx costs. Or the fact that the on-board computers kept me from doing my own work.

And I really, really don't miss the $65 primo-gas fill-ups every 3-5 days.
