So far, only one other Fit driver has waved back at me. Most seem to just look at me, thinking "Do I know that lady???" Well, I'll just keep on waving and hoping to get a community going here on the west side...



Right now, my baby needs a bath and the weather is right for a claying, so....goodbye dirt from Hurricane Ike!!!

 

I think the hurricane screwed up my disc brakes...should take it in to the raper, I mean dealer. Anyway usually the ones that ride my ass are trucks and SUVs. It's quite annoying.

 

just from reading what you guys have written, i feel like a total ass for ABUSING my car, BIGTIME
rear driver's door, totally busted up, front bumper a few dents and an inch behind where it's supposed to be, dings on the front passenger door
when i recieve my body kit, mod it up and fix up a couple of things, i'll definitely treat her so much better

 

Mine were grinding last night...Hadn't driven the car in 3 days, and the hurricane drove rain into it (we have a carport but no enclosed garage). I drove it and they quieted down, but I'd take it to the dealer and have it looked at if I were you.

 

You've been a very naughty boy (or girl). Shame on you! You'll be lucky if we don't come over there and take your Jazz right away from you and give her to a kinder home! [slap] I've got a nephew who will be starting his driver training this year and I'm sure HE'D be a more careful owner...

 

lol, i'm a guy, hence the abusive-ness
tell your nephew to look after the car! cos it really is a nice car, but since it's the first car i've been driving, i has had to suffer alot from my before newb-ness.
since i've been able to save up some money, i'm going to seriously pamper her up and make it looking brand spanking new again it was either this or get me an s13, but since i'm at uni (or as you guys call it college in us) it's been a difficult choice of keeping the car and pamper it then move out, or stay living at home till i can afford to run both an s13 and live out, but obviously i've chosen to look after the jazz

 

Well, then, are you going to give my nephew your abused Jazz? How long till you are out of uni? And what are you studying?

My BIL, nephew's dad, is pretty obsessive about cleaning...and he's an engineer so he'd fix up your car until it was spotless. They live in Bristol, so let me know...

 

I say I drive my fit SLOW. Not as slow as when I first bought it but often enough I find that A LOT of people go around me. My car is VERY clean...but the inside could use some work. I park at the VERY last parking spot at work just because I'm so anal about my car being hit with a cart.

 

I think the Fit is like the only car 99% of people drive like grandfolks in, even 18-25 year olds. It's crazy if you think about it. I dunno what it is about this car that makes ya want to baby it, hug it at night, kiss it, hell maybe even make love to it ;x

 

Living up in the frozen tundra ive seen 3 Fits, a BOM owned by a college student clean though, a Tidewater blue base which i test drove and loved!!!, and a BBP which was parked about 400000000 spaces away from everyone else at a mall, so i proceeded to drive over and check it out, SWEET.

 

lolol
hmmm bristol... they live FAR from me
im like on the other side of the counry
yeahthe car WILL be looked after from now as in properly, and i'll be spending around 3k (roughly $6k) on her inc paint bodykit and rims

 

yeha man when i first got my fit in jersey there wasnt too many around in my area...but now theres like two on my block and people use to ask me what car is that and how many mpg's do i get and where can i buy one lol..and now that i see the drivers its a pretty good range of people driving this car i have seen reallly young people aka cute chicks to old old people like 90 and 80 and they all seem to be having fun with the FIT. So i have seen it all also i have seen one messed up FIT it was under a truck it looked like the FIT was trying to make the right turn and the truck was also and well you can imagine what happened next lol...just me two cents


EDIT: i love testing out the top speed of the fit as i drive to school

 

haha top speed, most i've gone is 110mph and i didnt dare to go any faster

 

haha no no 115mph..and i was still gettin 30mpgs... and sometimes theres a lil hill action going on i hit 125mph...but thats just crazy with this little car..lol..i use to do that with my '99 nissan sentra and that car felt like it was falling apart.lol

 

WTF O_O 125?!
That really IS crazy
DAmnnn, that's fast, had no idea that our cars can do that

 

Good, I'm glad we shamed you into taking better care of your Fit!!! Enjoy her - these little cars are treasures.

And good luck at uni - study hard!!

 

yup but i do it on a road that rarely ever has traffic and its basiclly a straight away lol its heaven

 

What engine size's are available in the us?
in uk, it's 1.2 and 1.4 is the v-tec a 1.5?

 

yes it's L15A 1.5L vtec. The 09 Fit worldwide is 1.5L i-vtec if I'm not mistaken

 

i love my l15 just wish it had a little more quick to it...lol
