Smile New old guy saying hello again

Hello folks. I've lurked here a while ago, but it's been quite some time since I've been here. I've always admired the Honda fit & one has finally come to roost in our family. Sadly it is not mine it is my son's, but I'm very happy for him. He moved from a 05 Civic LX to a 15 Fit EX.

I'm a car guy, my son is not. I'm going to be the one tracking & fixing any issues that come up. I'm thinking since it is a Honda those should be few & far between. Although I do realize all cars have their issues even Honda's.

Stand by for dumb questions.

Thanks for the welcome.

I drive a GTI & a Miata. My wife drives a MINI & Sonny has the Fit. Great stable of cars. I'm OK with my son not being a car guy, that can get quite costly. Ask me how I know that.

GTI is a good choice.

I really enjoy it. At first I was worried about the GTI reliability, but since I've had it its been much more reliable than my MINI was.
