There are more MINIS and Range Rovers here than there is Fits. I figure I will come out ahead by keeping the Fit, just improve the performance and handling when I am able and not get stuck with another car that would have comparable performance with higher insurance rates as well as more depreciation and interest rates if I have to take out a loan... After owning mine for five years, I still love to get in it and drive somewhere just to enjoy the car.. Every time I get out on the road in it I still get a good feeling.

Depends on the area I suppose. Generally in cities, Fits are everywhere. Back in Monterey, I was seeing almost as many Fits as Corollas and BMW 3-series. On the other hand, I was surprised to find out they were still building the Suburban... Hadn't seen a new one in years.

Let me know how you like the new SI. I have only seen the new LX and Ex civics where I work and Im not too excited bout them. I went from an 8th gen SI to an Insight cuz my wife couldnt drive a stick. So then we compromised and traded the insight for a 11 Accord lxs coupe and I got my mt Fit sport the same time. I still miss my SI everyday, but I enjoy my Fit. I hope only the best for you and your new SI!!!Congrats!!!
