Hey everyone.
Just got out of the military and decided to get myself a little '12 Fit Base Model. Any advice or suggestions are more than welcome.
Thanks people.

 

Welcome to the Forum! Advice: Get a manual, you'll enjoy the car much more, and since you're buying used, I'd say go for a Sport model instead of base; it's a little better outfitted options wise. By the way, Thanks for your service (which branch?) fellow vet, Fittmann

 

At the end of Sept I just got a '12 Fit sport 5sp from a local Honda Dealer.
I had a 2004 CRV 5sp and the Fit is really quite a hoot to drive AND gets
real good gas mileage even when I put my foot into it!

The only thing i paid for so far was get the windows tinted -
The Fit didn't come with any tint and it makes a world of difference with glare and keeps the car cooler!

Enjoy enjoy!

 

Congrats on purchase and salute to your service! Should be fun to drive and work with, lots of more good ideas around.

 

I got the exact one I was planning. It's the 5 speed but I couldn't find the sport. Also Army!
In addition, thanks for the welcome everyone.

 

Yay! Another stick driver, glad you like it. It partially makes up for you joining the Army insted of the MARINES!! (Just Kidding!) USMC Fittmann
