I got it from japanparts.com some other members on here said they dealt with them and had no issues. Communication with them has been great and I should have a tracking number today or tomorrow.

Parts are also in stock so that's good. It will be the same console as in the sport byt my armrest will be grey instead of black. You have the option to select the color. This will match my interior better.

Aj replied a bit too late for me lol. They kept telling me it wouldn't fit yesterday and today Ben pms me and says it will fit and he can get the grey armrest.

Bad timing

I'm up to my ears in diapers too Jon's son and my second daughter are about the same age lol.

I'm interested in the SC but I think a new project will happen way before any F/I goes onto the Fit

Probably no FI for me, I will be running down to Vancouver for a tune from AJ though. I have a few other goodies to put together with it, the setup is going to be one of a kind once it is done, I am not saying anything until after it is in or somebody else will nab my idea!

When it is all said and done I should be putting 115hp to the tires..... a 20% increase over stock.... *cross's fingers*. Although knowing my luck I will roll up to the dyno and push out 95hp.... lol

Tell AJ to give you a safe margin to compensate for the altitude change between Vancouver and Calgary when they tune it. You'll probably lose 10whp just driving it back to our wonderful 3000ft above sea level

btw Illusive bmw 1 series pricing is now out in CAD. Thought you'd like to know

128i $33,900 base 128i Cab $39,900 base

Awesome price, so a loaded 128 is only $40K! and $45K for 128i cab!

AND ..

135i (With M body kit, M suspension .. )


ONLY $41,700!! so mean a loaded 135i is under $50K! and fast as 911 .. lol

135i cab $47,200!

Get stripping the Fit!

By all means step up and be a BMW owner, we all need a BMW in our short life on this planet. I went through a three year affair with a beautiful 5 series. You need to strip the Fit and get on with your needs.

As a side note, and in the fairness of a hidden agenda, I need you to get a BMW so I can buy your parts for my '08 Fit Sport. We share the same colour, I like what I see in your ride, so I await the BMW commitment.

Get in touch once you slap down the coin on the Bimmer.

Cheers.

Hey,

I love BMW's. Would definitely choose that over a Benz. Anyways, maintenance is higher and if you're one to do things to your ride, keep in mind it'll cost more... maintenance, insurance, gas, etc. Make sure you get a BIG loan!!

If you're getting rid of your Fit, let me know... I have a friend who might be interested.

If they can get the new 1 series and trade me for my Fit, then sure LOL!

I know there has to be a catch somewhere or I am guessing the dealers will load them up with options so much you'll have a hard time walking out with one under 50K
