Finding a new white '07

What would be the most efficient way of finding a new white '07 fit in northern california (besides calling every dealer). Also, are there any differences at all between the '07's and '08's? Search didn't bring anything up. Thanks so much for any advice.

Danny

You can drive to every dealership in NorCal. TMPS on '08 Fit.

Its not going to be easy finding a White 07..But its possible, if i were you i would hunt for the best deal instead of hunting for one specific color.
Tire Pressure Monitering system(TPMS) is the only diffrence between the 07 and 08.

Or you can buy an '08 and have it painted the white color on the '07 or check the dealer website and see their inventory if offered or I can tyep TPMS instead of TMPS.

While I'll never say never. I would highly doubt that you will find a New 07 White fit. Our last white 07 went in Sept. and since the vehicle is not a highly produced car. My suggestion is if you can get a dealer to do a locate on Honda's Dealer site it should tell you if there are and in the state of Cali.

i am in the same dilemma. i found a TW fit at buena park honda but sadly its automatic with the tan trim interior and also its modified by the dealer so i might just have to stick with the black. chances to get a TW fit are very slim but i guess possible.

How funny. I know which fit your talking about. I was just at buena park Honda yesterday for my first oil change. I got lucky when I got my car. I had just gotten a car wash with my old car and was bored, so I drove over to test drive a fit. Turns out they had a show room tw manual fit with the beige interior. I feel as my car is as rare as it comes. Good luck trying to find a white fit though! Especially manual!

For all people dead set on getting a TW Fit, dont forget about the 09's coming soon. I heard White will be a color choice!

i got a tw fit one month ago. my salesman looked them up on the locator and found the exact color, int, and tranny i wanted. its exactly what i wanted, so go ask a salesman, put him to work. make him earn his commission.

Well the only TW in Base or sport 5sp or Auto in Ca,OR, WA is the one in buena park. This is per Hondas vehicle locator, so you may be out of luck on a new one

Did you go up on the roof at Buena Park Honda? I was just there on 11/27 around noon, and I saw 7-8 Fits on the roof, but I don't really remember if there were any white ones up there. I did see the white Fit outside, in front of the showroom window, though.

I know wtf is up with honda producing a limited amount of white cars in their car line up? Anyone knows what is their logic for this? Is there any statistics that white cars are harder to sell?

We just got TW for our Fits for 2008...it replaced the Alabaster Silver color from 2007. If you really want a white one...buy one here. I know the 2008 Canadian Fits do not come with the TPMS.

5 speed DX starts at $14980 + $1295 shipping. Our DX doesnt come with AC and has only 2 speakers.

5 speed LX starts at $17380 + $1295. Our LX is pretty close to what the base model is in the US.

5 speed Sport starts at $19580 + $1295. As far as I can see, the Sport is identical in both countries.

I just ordered my 2008 TW Fit Sport MT this week. Should be here in Feb/March.

Maybe if our money wasn't worth crap. $22000 usd for a fit is a little much.
