Finally A Honda Fit Owner! *No Longer A Outsider*

Well, the dream has finally come true!

I was waiting out longer because I was planning to buy a brand new 3rd gen fit, however everything changed since I noticed I'm starting to put a lot of mileage on my 2017 Honda Accord Sport and decided that I should get a 3rd car while there is still a point to keep low mileage on the Accord.

So I started shopping...and the same day I found my perfect Fit

The funny thing here is that it was in the most oddest place ever....a Lamborghini dealership haha.

Oh yeah...quick info on me. I have always loved the fit from Gen 1 to the current model!

Cars I own currently: (I'll make a journal later)
2015 Toyota 86 (Scion FRS) as a summer car.
2017 Honda Accord Sport as a family car
& now....a 2007 Honda Fit Sport as a winter/daily car

2007 Honda Fit Sport
5 Speed Manual
59,000Km (36,000Miles)

Here some pics...from the dealership. I'm picking it up tomorrow. I'll make a journal and post more pics there. Not planning to do much currently. Already bought new wipers, oil change at honda on Friday and getting a window tint Satruday haha

My accord unfortunately is actually a CVT
It does good on gas and is fine, but yeah I got it in automatic so my wife and other family members could use it if necessary. Also I use it more as a business car.

So that car is a lease and I use it as a write off. The issue though is that I had a 2014 accord sport and in 3 years I already had 108,000Km when I was only supposed to be allowed 96,000KM in 4 years. So i traded in early and got a new one.

I bought a 3rd car to keep miles low on this 2017 Accord so it's worth buying out in the end or trading in. Currently it only has 4,500Km.

The Toyota 86 is my mod toy where I put money towards. The Fit will mostly be kept in stock form apart from the window tint getting down on saturday. I'll use it as a winter car and a summer car to get around the city or go fishing and things like that lol

The Imprezaaaaaaa.....is gone lol. I sold it a few years ago. Was a 2002 WRX bugeye.

If you click on my build journal, you can see pics of it in my 86 thread.

Thanks guys! Yeah i like the color also.

Yeah, I drive a lot of miles so that why I got the Fit. However I'm enjoying the driving the Fit way more than the Accord now. The fit feels sporty and nimble. Accord feels like a HUGE SUV.....I can only imagin how an SUV would feel like now after the Fit.
I used to own a Volvo XC90... such a tank.

By the way, got a tint on it already
