In the market for:
2012 Honda Fit Sport AT in OrangeBurst Metallic
No one can locate one for me in the state!
Ultimately I would like it with Navi but was told that there are NO SPORTS WITH NAVI in California! Argh. True or not true?
Is the flooding/tsunamis in asia an issue?

There is cash in my pocket and I would love my Orange Fit soon!
Heck, I would take a 2011 Sport in ORM if I could find a new one.

Probably true. Stop "desperately looking" and get thee to a dealer and get your Fit ordered and on the way. That is what I did.

 

I agree-Find a dealership and salesperson you like & get them to work for you to earn that commission.

 

I had the same problem, I wanted a white fit sport with nab in NJ and there were none, so i was told, in the tristate, only ones available are actually the orange burst with no nav. I persisted and will have my fit sport with navi in 2 weeks, just waiting on the delivery.

a lot of dealers didn't want to put the effort in to check incoming stock, call 'em all again and check that, if no luck then order it.

 

As of about a week ago I saw the computer screen where they were running a dealer search and there were not that many Fit's available (I want to say 20 or so in SoCal, 80% of them were alabaster and automatic) there may have been 1 or 2 manuals.

Also dealers have politics, they only trade with certain Honda dealers they like also they don't like trading vehicles in high demand because they have to drive it there ... so they get nervous about putting more than say 100 miles on the car because people expect very few miles on a *new* car.

I say order it, you never know what jackhole was out redlining it on a test drive

 

At last, I put a deposit down on my 2012 FIT SPORT AT IN OBM , dealer expects it between 18-22nd, "god wiling and the creek don't rise" ... I am adding a head unit/nav after market (any brand ideas?)

My new want list: all weather mats and cargo tray...(they didn't have them in stock yet?) and those awesome clazzio leather seat covers. Looks like soon my FIT IS GO!

Congrats! Buy the accessories online- will cost you a lot less. There is a thread on here about the cargo cover. The 2012 model is slightly different but the 2009-2011 should work, too.

 

Congrats, my Vortex was set to drop the 8-11 but is pushed back to the 12th! hope you don't agonize too much

Ebay is your friend when it comes to accessories, I bought my all weather mats and cargo tray there.

I would say the oem all weater mats can be dissapointing, you might look at weathertec digital fit.

 

HOORAY. I pick up "Ginger" in an hour!

 

Now we know there is at least one Orangeburst Metallic Fit in California
