And finally got a Fit! Purchased yesterday, with 20 miles, a Blue Raspberry Metalic Fit base model:

I tore my knee up last year, 2 grade 3 meniscus tears, so I sold my Ducati Monster and wanted a new car. Couldn't argue with .9 financing! I have owned several generations of Honda:

89 Wagovan
90 EF Hatch
95 EJ1 Coupe
2007 Ruckus

and I am glad to be back in a Honda! First step is probably a Pioneer indash DVD and an alarm, then save my nickles for a set of Swift Springs and some Enkei RPF1s.

Glad to finally start posting and talk to you fellers.

Welcome back to the family. Those meniscus tears can be a pain literally. I have had to have both knees done at different times so I know how you feel. But I must say the results WORK pain free now... Knock wood.

Thank you and no joke, originally, the MRI only picked up one, but when they were in there, they found another one! 3.7cm tear on one of them! I am now in better shape, than I have ever been, been squatting more weight than I did pre-injury.
