Wow don't ask people at Yahoo Answers about the Fit

I asked on there today if anyone likes the Honda Fit and explained that it has great mileage, and wow people are mean their like wow a 18 second car for under 16000 dollars, and one person called me an ***hat What is wrong with these people? I told them I bought it, because it is what I like, and is properly engineered and there is a reason why its hard to get ahold of.

Ignore them, everyone has an opinion. It's all in what you like, not them. If they don't it's thier problem.

Agreed! If they don't like it, then they can drive something else. More Fits for us!

I was at that place yesterday and yes, it's horrible. I did like this answer to a question asked:

"You're better off searching car enthusiast sites such as autoblog and communities like FitFreak than asking in this place where most people don't know what the hell a Fit is."

It was chosen as the best answer by the asker =)

Don't take this the wrong way, but that is hilarious. I hardly ever hear anyone use that term. I hope it makes a comeback. That and "assclown".

Don't ask the question if you are not prepared to get an answer you won't like.

haha, i say asshat all the time

seriously though, it's just like a bullying thing, people get away with acting rude online because they don't have to do it face-to-face.

and that's why fitfreak is here, so all of us fit owners can be asshats together

Response should have been 18 seconds is longer than your attention span, so you obviously need to ease of the Meth you are smoking and get a real job so your world expands and stops revolving around quarter mile times.
What next? Saying that Dale Earnhardt wouldn't drive one? Who cares! You didnt ask what its quartermile time was or what famous person would drive it! Pfft...retards...

I live my life a quarter mile at a time. Nothing else matters: not the mortgage, not the store, not my team and all their bullshit. For those ten seconds or less, I'm free.

People who talk alot of crap about the Fit are really un-educated about the Honda Fit and what the car is really about..Yes its a economy Hatch, and thats all they look at it as..But through out my few months of ownership ive relized its much more then that..Its a true enthusiasts car, and if you know hot to drive it will reward you on a nice backroad! The Fit completly stock handles amazingly, throw on some springs and sway bar, and it will hang with anything..HP isnt really needed when you dont have to brake and loose momentum into corners! Anyway, the Honda Fit is a hidden gem of a car, only owners will understand what im saying.

It should be;
I live my life a 1/4 mile at a time, for those 18 seconds; I realize I drive a Fit.
Hahahahah!!

Fits are faster than 18sec BTW. I ran a 16.7 with an intake and a bad 60 foot.

Do I detect a cheesy Fast n Furious quote?

On the subject... who's going to be the first to add some cheesy graphics to the side of their car?
