Why do I like the fit so much?

I owned it since 4 days after it came to US. IOno..i love everything abouit it. I love driving it, I love how it looks, I like admiring every nook and cranny. I like its mileage, its performance, its handling, its "greenage". I had a few complaints, but I don't remmber waht they are b/c they're not a big deal. Is this normal when a person gets a new car (this is my first car that is to myself) or is it cuz the fit is just that damn great

anyone else like their fit a lot.

I was driving my Fit the other day sitting at a light thinking the exact same thing. Light turned green and this lady in a 4runner almost ran me off the road and almost hit me. Wow did I get road rage quickly from that...its like I saw my little 3 month old Fit life flash before my eyes. Luckly I avoided the wreck and my Fit is still alive.

I absolutely love my BOM Fit! I sometimes come up with places to go just so I can drive it. I also will go the long way home where I used to want to just get there as soon as possible.

Our last few car purchases were for practical reasons. But the Fit we purchased because we "wanted" it. It has everything we wanted and then some.

We have had ours for a month and have over 2000 miles on it.

We just took our first 8 hour road trip. We had three kids in the back, (ages 17, 16, 7), had the back 3/4 full with suitcases. Half the way was highway driving on flat surfaces. The other half was in the hills and mountains of Tennessee. A/C was on the entire time and we still got 32 mpg.

I JUST LOVE IT!!

It's so nice having a car you truly enjoy.

I want one soooo bad.

My reasons for liking so much:

41 cubic feet of cargo room! (OMG! How great is this?!? My primary car has maybe 6 cubic feet of cargo room.)

31-32 MPG in the city! (I get 17 MPG in my primary. It will be nice to have a second car to drive to save gas if i so choose.)

I'm sure more Fits must be on the way.
So i'm sure i'll have one soon.

I love my Fit! She's just so fun to drive and handle. My complaints are minor, as well. I get paranoid whenever I'm driving her that some jerk's going to hit her and ruin her, the way idiots around here drive. Don't want that to happen.

Yes, I love mine too.
Fun to drive, handles great, feels huge inside but looks tiny in a pkg lot (especially here in SUV/pigup country).
Decent mpg (36-7 first 2 tanks on base MT) but plenty of punch when needed.
I drive like a granny but I'm still having fun.
Everyone who sees this car wants the magic seat demo and then they want to have a Fit.
I tell them go take a number and stand in line. Today.

2 weeks and it keeps getting better!

I've had my SSM MT Base for 15 days now and I can't stop looking at her.
Washed my Fit yesterday and had the splash guards put on. It rained last night so I washed her again this morning and then had the bumper protector thing put on (my father does the work for me). This car is so smooth, I had to have the MT and waited 2 months; the shifting is so slick!! I drove a Ford Ranger for the past 6 years and previously owned two Honda Preludes before that. I never got over my Honda "lust" so I now feel like I am "home". My Preludes were wonderful and my Fit is too with all the great seating options and nooks and crannies it is great fun. Had my Sirius Starmate Replay installed last week and the blue lighting goes great with the colorful dash display. Awesome automobile!! Hope to have it many, many, many years to come!!!

Lov-n-it

When I am asked what it is I tell people it is a Wonka Mobile, the whole car defies the laws of physics and automotive nature.
When I am asked if it is a Hybrid I say sure half sport utility half luxury sports car.
I am 5'10" 320lbs and I am comfortable driving this car.
