finally i see another fit! and waved at it

Finally! I saw a fit (i knwo where it's from cuz it said "grace honda" and that particular car was the 2nd ne i saw). I wanted to wave but thought it was excessive. Turns out they changed to my lane and waved to me, so i waved back. This is the first fit i saw on the road than my own.

Well, what fun! I never thought about what a gas it will be to spot other FIT drivers, it being a new model in the US and all. ;- )

Hmm....I wonder how the others are doing in comparison, i.e., Yaris, xA, Aveo, etc.

Honda had better step up production--not cut back. If the # of small cars I'm seeing is any indication, they will sell better than any other Honda product if they bring enough over.

I'm seeing tons of Aveo's, Aerio's, Rio's and I can't believe the # of Corollas around here lately. The Civic is selling well, too, but New England Toyota has been pushing the reliability and 41 mpg of the Corolla for the last several months. At least that's what they claim in their commercials.

Living north of the Peg, I have yet to see another Fit. What color is yours and how did you figure the # of fits? I met one orange owner but never saw her car.

That's cool. I'm looking out for Fit's on the road. So far I've only seen one, blue. The top 2 cars I was considering was the Fit and Yaris. But from the Edmunds review, I decided on the Fit.

I saw an Orange FIT on the road today. It looked so small on the road,
but nice.

In days of yore, when I bought my brand new '56 VW Beetle, the cars were so rare that when you saw another one on the road you immediately signaled with a beep. It was a real cult car in those days. In later years, when the VWs became so popular, if the beeping signals continued it would be a continuous din around the country.

Air-cooled Beetle owners still beep at each other, at least they did a few years ago when I sold my last one.

I pulled up next to a black Fit at a light yesterday. It was being test driven by a young couple with the salesman in the back seat. I waved, but they were too engrossed with the car to notice.
