23 soon to be 24, Fit's my second Honda/car

 

35 here. The Fit is my first Honda, had around 13 VW's before this with the exception of an '89 Suzuki Swift GTi.

 

I'm 35, but my wife who drives the Fit is 27. I've owned a LOT of other cars. This one is the slowest, but it's also the cutest.

 

I kinda missed this post too I'm 39 and am REALLY considering a Fit.

I'm 35 currently, and a longtime Honda lover. The FiT is the first new car I have ever purchased. Ownership history...

1989-1991 - 1972 Buick LeSabre - Crappy car, but you have to love your first.
1991-1993 - 1982 Chevy Corsica - I will NEVER own an American car again.
1993-1996 - 1985 Nissan Sentra - Blah car at best. Got me from A to B I guess.
1996-2001 - Good pair of boots and bummed a lot of rides. This period of my life SUCKED.
2001-2003 - 1991 Honda Civic Hatchback. The careless kid who plowed into my rear bumper should be forced to work at a sewage treatment plant for a year as punishment for killing this car.
2003-2005 - 1992 Honda Civic Hatchback. Car died as far as I was concerned, though I did sell it to someone for $500, and he got it running again after about a 3 grand investment.
2005-2007 - Working in DC, used Metro mostly, borrowed a friends car frequently worked out well.
2007-Current - 2008 Honda Fit. Perfect.

 

My fit is on order and should arrive in 8 weeks. I picked the simple one - base manual Red. Will add some things but it will be for everyday chores.

SOON - 2008 Honda Fit (SOON)

Since I used to race motorcycles for a living, I will not include those I picked up along the way - lots of fun ones from a flat track harley 750 to CZ and BSA gold stars.

Considering I lived in a commune in Colorado for 24 years, I now find it insane I owne so many and am considering selling some to clear out the garage (and insurance fees) to make room for the Fit.

You are never too old to be young.

 

I'm 20 and this is my 3rd car but 1st brand new one. :-)

 

I hate to skew the demographic, but I'm 85, and have owned our 2007 Fit sport AT since August of 2006. My 83-year-old wife and I are delighted with it. We traded a 1998 Accord for it.

 

I'm 22 the Fits my 3rd car. I had a 88 crx then traded
it for a 06 Cobalt SS/SC(one of the worst ideas i've ever had).

 

I am curious if you have done any modifications to your Fit. I am 44 and haven't modified any car in 15 years but I can't help but to put some mods on this car. It is just tooo much fun!!

 

I just turned 29 and the Fit is my 7th Honda, here's a list of what i own and owned

90 Honda crx Si (modded d16a6) Sold
