Which FIT year model/color is hard to find?
is it the GD tafeta manual?
why does honda give diff names to the fit= jazz-fit-etc?
notin to do just asking

 

gd tafetta with black interior

 

^^ A M/T Base I might add. As for the Jazz/Fit name, its posted on wikipedia in the third paragraph of the first gen. section for Honda Fit.

Here's the quote...

 

how hard is it to convert auto = manual ? $$$

 

Only person that is doing it right now, and documenting it, is Felix. But that is swapping to a K20 MT. The car is still to new it would be best to find a MT fit then try and do a conversion

 

Cool, I have a GD3 Taffeta white with the 5sp

 

but does it have black interior? :P

 

beige interior's not rarer?

 

black is more rare

 

Okay, I guess I'll ask (rather rudely)...

Who gives an F, if a car is rare?

I bought my SSM 2010 Fit Sport MT because...

I like the styling.
I like the performance handling (that I read about until I bought it).
I like silver/gray as a color.
I wanted a manual.

Less than a month after I bought it, another SSM WITH MT was parked at my work place, I even pulled up next to it. I've seen plenty of SSM Fits.

Are you buying this car to use and enjoy or as some sort of collector?

You want it to be unique? Then, just make it your own. Change it however you like. Doesn't matter that it started off as a "cookie cutter" car.

 

Mine does have a black interior!

 

lemons are pretty rare fits

 

It was ordered by me when back in '06 to my specs from Honda. Ahhh back in the day Btw nice old thread I wish I had the tan interior all I have is my coin holder being that color.

 

I would imagine my '12 Orange Burst Metallic 5MT is a pretty rare setup.

Wish we had production numbers by color.

 

Probably the She's fit. It was aimed at the JDM female market, but it sold miserably because girls really don't like pink cars.

The Honda Fit She's Should Never Have Existed And It's Already Dead

 

The manual transmission Fit always seems to be a rare find. It took me 3 weeks of online searching and a 4 hour drive to find my 2012 base Fit with a manual.

 

Define rare.. I define it as a car that is significantly higher performance in handing or power or both with factory options that can't be bought and installed trivially and in a production run of double digit numbers or less. If they made 500 or more in the world,, it ain't rare ..

You also have to consider is it a desirable option. Not just unusual,, Cadillac Allante anybody??

 

Interesting, so the Porsche 918 Spyder is old hat.

Gotcha.

 

Hard to find is a Fit Sport with Nav and a manual transmission.

 

Ok so they built almost 1000 of a car that cost over 3/4 million dollars, that makes the car exclusive,, not necessarily rare. Most buyers will seldom drive them and I'd bet half went into private collections.. Like all the Porsche specials have done for the last 40 years..

But point taken there are exclusive cars out there that many won't ever have a chance to drive..
