How is it going everyone...

Just wanted to say hello to everyone. I MIGHT get a brand new 2007 TW fit sport tommorow. I would be coming from a 2005 honda CRV-ex. I just can't seem to make up my mind.

Pros
1. payment would drop almost 120.00
2.better gas
3.last year for white
4.easy to park(NO DRIVEWAY)
5. cheaper insureance
6. Always wanted a 1995 civic bubbleback hatch.

CONS
1. smaller car
2.no leather,sunroof,heated bun warmers(don't really need that stuff)
3.Maybe to small for my 3year old
4. going from paying honda 10 grand to 13 grand

Any info or help would be great

I love my hond afit. I went from a 96 honda accord V6 and do not regret anything. Yes it is a down grade for me but the fit does have some power. It is a light car. It is nothing compared to my accord but I can pass cars and trucks. get it in manual and you won't have a problem. fun to drive plus it got lost of mods to change and make your fit personalized!

I traded my 2007 Civic Si for the Fit - and have no regrets.

I just traveled across Florida for turkey-day. Fit was loaded with 3 adults, two kids, and at least 300 pounds of cargo. We drove 380 miles - and I used 9 gallons of gas. I kept trying to squeeze more gas in thinking there must have been bubbles or something.

The CRV is a great car (truck). But if you want to save money in the long run, I think the Fit is a great trade.

Oh-yeah I also "fit" my daughter's Step 2 Playhouse, in the box, in the back of the car the other night. The guy that carried it out to the car was simply amazed.

I love my Fit too. It's so much fun to drive and handles really well. I think you'd really love the Fit.

Ok i just got back from the dealer. Took it for a test drive and loved it. Felt like a go-cart(I know everyone says that)

I could have any color they have in-stock auto for 16100.00,I only have to pay 86 bucks for taxes because my truck is worth 15500. I still have to pay 11 grand on the crv and if i go fit it only goes up to 12177.00 so i get a brand new car for 12177.00. How does the deal sound that i'm getting.
