Greetings all!

Finally joined the forum today after visiting for about a month while waiting for my new 2017 Fit Hit to come in. Well, picked it up yesterday. We got the Modern Steel Metallic color with cvt.

The Hit model is the top of the line here in Mx. but it falls kind of in between the LX and EX model in the U.S. It's missing a lot of the fancy electronics of the U.S. models but has the 16" wheels and fog lights. Of course with an OTD price of around $12,000 I can live with that.

I had the dealer put the window tint and security film on before we picked it up and also got the nose mask. Also ordered the Wheelskins steering wheel cover, leather shift knob from Bernardi and a Husky cargo mat.

Looking forward to contributing and gleaning as much information as I can.

Cant understand why we don't have more packages available here. I would have wanted the one you have. Not a lot of super fancy gadgets just the LX with wheels and fogs. I know you can add them, but for probably couple thousand more.

Yeah, this package works great for me. If I want to add additional mods they're pretty much available aftermarket.

My only hang up on getting some wheels is although probably extremely minimal, I wonder what the mpg difference would be. I haven't researched it although I will, I have OCD so every mpg I want, its a hobby. As for the fogs, I had a yaris and briefly looked into adding some factory ones on, wow at that project, just little more than I wanted to tackle.

I'll need to take a better picture after I get it washed. The streets in front of our house are dirt and cobblestone so it's hard to keep clean.
