I picked up an 08 Fit sport last night. i was getting killed by the price of tires, gas, and the payment on my old car, so as soon as i found a buyer it was gone but i'm definately going to miss it. Its an 08 Fit Sport automatic, and i think i got a pretty good deal on it after about 3 hours of negotiations.

anyway, onto pictures of the old and current cars.

first, my srt4 which i got rid of about 11 months ago, funnest car i've ever had but i kept pushing the envelope too much and it was getting to expensive. At its peak it made 552 whp and a hair over 500 lbs of tq to the wheels. i still had a few parts left to install like the aem ems and twin disk clutch so i was never able to break 600 whp.



then i got rid of the srt4 to buy something that was kind of quick stock and still fun to drive so i picked up an 04 corvette z06 and i love that car but it was eating me alive with tires/gas/payment so 11 months into owning it i decided to give it the axe. this one was bone stock




and now my fit sport, its definately not the fastest of the bunch or the most agile but when i think of all the money i'm saving it puts a smile on my face.



i hope to get welcomed into and become an active member of this community, i've been modding cars for a long time and can provide tons of technically help.

 

Nice... You probably have the first 2008 Fit in the Florida area.
Welcome, nice previous cars also.

 

hmm that would pretty interesting. thanks for the welcome

 

Congratz on the SSM sport! Your going to love the MPG! And also, welcome to FitFreak!

 

Hey Welcome to the Fit Family - Sweet looking 2008 Fit! Really nice previous cars also - the Fit will definitely not be able to mix it up with
those cars in the speed zone but you will love the way it handles and how much fun it is to be riding a go-kart of a car.

Cat :X

 

I too have an 08' SSM fit, and i love it, hope you enjoy yours also, that was a nice srt as well.

 

Very nice numbers on the SRT! Welcome to Fit Freak.

 

Just out of curiosity, what are the last 5 numbers on your vin. I'm kind of curious how many are out there.

 

holy baloney you've had some great cars! welcome!

 

Welcome!!!
Cant wait to see what you are going to do to your Fit!!!

 

I heard that if you keep your foot outta the pedal on a Corvette, the mileage isn't _too_ bad actually. However, I bet that's hella hard!

 

nice cars! hope u enjoy here! nice choice in car and color!

 

thats what i heard too, but the best i got babying it was 20 mpg, average for me was 12-15 mpg, last tank was 10 mpg. they're good on the highway, with a 29 mpg rating but the city driving kills it, and i'm rarely on the highway.


thanks for the welcome guys

 

just for fun, this is what i had before my srt4

 

01639, what can you tell with those numbers?


so today is really one of the saddest days of my life




that was the only car i ever truely loved 100%. my eyes got watery when the flat bed turned the corner knowing i'll never see it again.

 

"Sonny, true love is the greatest thing in the world, except for a nice MLT - mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe [smacks his lips] They're so perky, I love that."

Now go make yourself a sandwich!

 

wait why did it get taken away on a flatbed? repo'd? jk. but i can't think of why it'd be taken away on a flatbed other than because it can't drive or you donated it?

 

its on its way to the new owner in chicago. no repo here

 

You have had some serious performance cars in the past! Alot diffrent from the Fit as far as power lol, but the Fit will handle probaly just as good as some of those..

 

and debating on auto-xing the fit or not. i'll probably do it a few times.
