New Fit owner!

Hey everyone!

I bought an 07 FS last Friday. I’ve been in a series of cheap junker cars for about 5 years now and got sick of constant repair work needing to be done. My 01 caravan blew a head gasket as I pulled into the dealership. I will totally admit I thought the Fit was ugly and would be two small for me and my kids. I reluctantly test drove it after the other cars in my price range all left me feeling like I was going to get into yet another mess....WOW was I wrong, who ever owned her before me kept her IMMACULATE inside and out even the engine bay had recently been cleaned! Now when it comes to cars the love of my life was my 05 WRX so I have had a prejudice against anything V-tech... I fully own my stupidity now. She may not the power of my WRX but when I ask she is ready! I sold my WRX in 2012 and have hated driving since then. I now find myself loading the kids up just to drive. I’m doing the single mom thing so our budget is always tight I’m loving the gas mileage even driving aggressively. So please forgive me for my past Honda hate I’m in love! Sadly I’m pretty sure I’m dealing with an air bubble in my heater core but if I can get my jack back from a coworker Ill have it fixed this weekend.

Auto, I have played around a little with the paddle shifting. I’ll post pics at some point I really want to wash clay and wax her first. She’s clean but it’s bonding time with my cars were expecting rain all next week though. My kids are utterly upset I won’t let them eat in the car.
