Talking After 6 months of wanting and 12 weeks of waiting.....

I FINALLY GOT HER:

An Automatic Vivid Blue Pearl FIT Sport!


And let me tell ya, she was definetly worth the wait!


I already put almost 1000 miles on her in 5 days! (this has gotta be some kind of record....lol)

I originally wanted a Black or White Manual but I am very happy with how sexy the blue looks during the day or night. The automatic is cool too because now I can cruise instead of shifting all the time like I did with a couple of my previous cars.

So for all of you still waiting, believe me, it IS worth the wait once you finally get the FIT. She is everything you expect and more!

whatever the amount of your fill up is (in gallons), which is listed on the pump when you stop, just use the trip-o-meter (That you reset last time you filled up, and take those miles and divide it by the gallons purchased!

You will have a rough estimate! It's certainly not perfect!

Hmm. I've had mine four days and I've done 86 miles...

I think I'm an underachiever...

Congrats, new FIT owners. The excitement too much. Just picked up my FIT Sport NBP MT on Wednesday (9/6). About 80 miles. Most of the time just spend in the garage staring at this little gem. Can't sleep. JDM, Spoon, Mugen, Handa-Access all new world.
Came from Odyssey EX, so map lights and armrests interest me. Feel lucky, ordered from dealer incoming inventory list 7/29...not a bad wait compared to what some are experiencing. Dealer says now sold out through October and pricing policies even more agregious than before.

BUMP for update:

-Its been about a month a half since I have had the fit and I still LOVE IT!

-Put about 3600 miles on it, mostly highway driving

-Gas mileage is no where near what they say it should be but I am a agressive driver, so I am not surprised that its only about 27-28 mpg right now. It looks like it is getting better though.

-What I hate about the car: THAT DAMN SEATBELT NOISE....IT WONT GO AWAY!! Also not alot of places to store stuff except the glove box and that sux. Also wish it has a dead pedal but I have gotten used to it. OH YEAH, and driving in the rain with your window cracked sux too, because all the rain gets in. Definetlyu need to get some rain guards.


Well that is it for now.......THANX FOR ALL THE KIND WORDS GUYS!
