There are other Fits out there

I've had my Fit since May 8th and I'd be lucky to see another one or two in a week. Apparently Fit drivers were out in force this holiday weekend. There were 4 of us parked near each other at the movie theatre, spotted 3 while out and about Friday, met a few on the road Saturday and parked next one at the Target.

It may seem silly, but it's nice to see others on the road in a weird sense of validation in a sea of minivans and SUVs up here.

Same here! I've had mine since May 2nd, and some weeks I don't see any others on the road. I can honestly say I've seen fewer than a dozen Fits on the road since buying mine.

For me whenever I get a new (or new to me) car I tend to notice them more that If I did not own one. When I bought my jeep I saw them everywhere. The Fit though I do not see tons of them on the road which is fine by me. Makes it more unique and not so run of the mill.

While waiting at a stoplight the other day, I saw one Fit go through the intersection, then when the light turned greeen for me, 2 other Fits got stopped on the red side. So there were 4 of us at that same intersection at the same time. How weird!

I see them all the time on the road. More so if Im NOT in my Fit.
Funny how that happens. Youre in your Fit looking for other Fits. Once you get into another car is when you see them.

Including mine, there are 5 Fits in my complex. I had the second SSM, but now there's two more the same color! The fifth is TBM. When I'm out I usually see two or three Fits driving around.

I am lucky to see another Fit once a month. I was in my office on Wednesday and there was a VBP driving down the street in front of my office. That was the only one I saw during the month of June

As a surgical device rep I crank out ~150-200 miles per day and usually see 2-4 Fits each day.

I live in college town and you'd think there'd be more, but I've only seen maybe 5 in the area and they are always the same 5.

While driving to soccer game, two BOM fits pulled up to either side of my BOM fit at a light. We all smiled and waived and found it pretty cool. I was the only non Asian though

I see Fits every so often but was amazed when I went to the beach and saw 7 in 30 minutes. All the Fit owners still enjoy a few hour drive to the beach around here

Didn’t see to many SUV's

Been seeing a ton lately in Phoenix. About 50/50 Base vs. Sport, none of them modded.
