Those dirty bastards!

That being said, if anyone would like to give me the scant price of $19,799 for my Black Sport 5 Speed with 24k miles, you can PM me.

They are all way over MSRP

Looks like the market will bear that price as they are all way over MSRP on the used market.

Some buyers cannot wait for a new FIT to be ordered. Many of us have to wait 4 to 6 months or longer and pay MSRP or more.

If a dealership has a used FIT they can sell it at any price the market can bear. Just because they list it at that price doesn't mean they will get that price.

If they have new FITs at MSRP then they would not be able to sell a used one for over MSRP unless there were some special financing available somehow.

Sometimes a hard to find feature might make one car more desirable.
Maybe a transmission type or color.

My local dealerships are willing to let a FIT go for only $3000 over MSRP if you can wait 6 months to get one. So take you pick and take your spot in line.

Hmm, I have a NHBP AT Sport with 5500 miles, cargo mat, floors mats, 35% tint and 1st oil change 150miles ago for $17000. Located in Arkansas Wife will kill me if she sees this post...but what can I say, I live dangerously. hahaha

I've got you all beat. D'Ella Honda in Plattsburgh, NY wanted $30,000 (you read that right. ) Wish I'd print screened it. I thought it was a mistake, until we dealt with them and I saw the sticker....

Not surprising though, they ripped us off later on.

silver sport MT Fit

Saterday I was in olympia so I stopped by Capital Honda. They still have that car... I was told it has 12,000 miles and one person said that Honda sent them the car. Two people called it a new car. I asked if new means that it had less then 50 miles. I asked that twice.... before getting the 12000 answer.
Later I was told that The Fit was picked up at an auction.
Buyer be informed when you buy.....

They are welcome to see mine...$15,970 for a SSM Fit Sport Manual. Drove it off the lot 2 months ago with 25 miles on it...all but 10 were put on by me in the test drive. The salesman wouldn't even let them park it on the lot to keep people from coming in and offering much more than sticker for it. But I guess that's how they do things here in the good ol' midwest!

I picked up my new NHBP Sport 5M yesterday. It's sweet! Paid MSRP and they threw in FIT carpet mats and the "protection package" that was already on the car. Will do business with them next time I need a Honda.

SSM could also stand for Satin Silver Metallic.
