Another New Fit Owner

Well, soon to be - depends on when they can get it in. 2013 Midnight Plum Pearl Sport Auto. Downsizing from a 1999 Chevy Trailblazer. Wanted better gas mileage with the the SUV-like convenience.

Sticker price $18,700, got it to $18,229 including all weather floor mats, a cargo tray and an installed remote start (yay!). $19,667 OTD. Not sure how that sits in the terms of a good deal, but I'm happy (or think I am right now!). Probably could have done the remote start and other goodies aftermarket, ahh well, I need a new car sooner as opposed to later.

Future additions
- Clazzio seat covers, haven't decided on the color but thinking black/black/purple stitching
- Seat warmers (Clazzios? any other suggestions?)
- Zeta storage armrest
- Potentially replacing the fabric in the door panels, depends on how ambitious I feel.

Any other ideas?

Nice to meet you, fellow Fit Fans, figured it was time to make an account and quit lurking.

Welcome Mimikai.. I also went from an SUV to a 2012 Fit Sport. It takes some getting used to. The Fit is very practical and for a small car you can carry a lot. I am getting twice the mileage in my Fit compared to the SUV.

Officially home and love it so far! Definitely need the seat covers... already have dog hair stuck to the seats and the dog hasn't even been NEAR the car. Could use a few more horses but not really anything I can complain about. Just over 50 miles on it. Love the plum color, too. Girly enough without being obnoxious.

Kenchan - Mainly commuting, honestly. I'm not particularly savvy when it comes to vehicle mechanics, but I'm learning!
