... your NOS blows the welds on your diamond plate floor board as you race for slips through Santa Monica.

You think your car is small until you get in it, and then you are in the Tardis!
You spend $50 at the parts store for stuff to wash it with, and you forget about that cute new shirt you thought you wanted.
You park in the farthest spot in the parking lot so no one will ding it!
You wave to all the other Fits you see on the road, and you aren't even mad if their owners don't wave back, because it's cool enough just to belong to the club.

Now a few of my own...I have only had my 2010 Sport for two days!

...when you are up at 2:30 am on this forum because you are so stoked about your new car.

when you are counting down the days in excitement to make your first payment

when your friends look at your car with a weird confused look on their face..

when your passenger tries to crawl on the dashboard to look out the little front window.

......when you discover fitfreak.net on the interwebz and find out that your fit is not the boring, cheap to own commuter car you intended to buy, but instead a cool little sport compact that you absolutely must spend $$$$ modifying..........much to your wifes dismay.

......when you spend 45 minutes trying to configure your suction cup GPS holder in such a way that it will stay in the little triangle window on the drivers side.

You might own a stock Fit if...

...your first thought when seeing steep uphill grade is "Oh heeell no."

...then you promptly drop to the lowest gear and go full throttle up the hill... without breaking the speed limit.

...Everyone of Fitfreak feels the same way and wrote it in this thread already! (as i read: i do that, i do that, yes i do that too....
...someone asks what car you drive, not know what it is, you show it to them and they do not know how to react
...you wish you had two of the exact same Fit so one is a DD and the other stays at home without a scratch

I have an original that happened to me today...
you know you own a fit when....

at your tennis lesson you completely miss your shot because you are swooning at your car sitting just a few paces away.

...and when you are shoving your tennis instructor into your car forcing him to take a test drive!

when your fit is the only car that can fit and transport boxes of merchandise, folding chairs, tables, biggest tent on a car show and still afford to ask the question "is that it???" while everyone watches in shock and awe to see the fit was only filled about halfway full...



LMAO

When your nieghbor comes over to talk about your Fit and you see a new Fit in his driveway a few days later!

When I googled MzFiT Honda Fit GD3 and I saw pix of my Fit .

When you get up off the couch at night just to see what's next in the mod dept. lol

When you check the e-mails to see what's being discussed in the threads ya posted in, and hope somebody has an answer!!

...whenever you merge into moving traffic from a dig at a 4-way intersection; you go wide open throttle for a good 7-8 seconds, nail the 1-2 shift perfectly... and traffic still passes you like you're standing still.

hahaha so true. Except for me, nailing the 1-2 shift is just clicking with my index finger. I miss my stick sometimes lol

When you are constantly driving to you private mail box in town and picking up stuff you've ordered to install but can't get started because there is more stuff on the way you will need to pick up before you can start... And of course the ever growing pile of stock and previously used after market parts that you have removed.
