Dumplin,

My boy will be a freshman at Wright State in the fall. I'll be looking for your orange Fit when I'm in the area. Hope I get my Silver Sport MT by then!

Sweet. You should post up some pics. I'd like to see the Spoon stuff when you get it. Where did you order it from?

Congrats! I'm still waiting for mine. Ordered in the middle of June. No word yet on any possible dates. I'm taking my wife's Accord into the dealer for brakes this Thursday, and intend to grill the sales manager a little....

Mine is MR as well. I think it looks good when adding the carbon fiber and wheels. And its pretty easy to keep clean. Is your sport or base? Hello and welcome to the club!

Sport. So what wheels do you have and what carbon fiber have you added.

How was it dealing with A&J Racing, any problems? I've been on their web site and am thinking of ordering something. You need to get a camera!

I'm in Columbus (Westerville, actually) and have just test drove the Fit. I also am looking at a Suzuki Aerio (5 door). Almost everyone will tell me that the Honda is a better vehicle with better resale value but if it's the right car, I don't want to think about resale. I'll drive it forever. Price is an issue... as well as availability. Do you have a Fit? If so, what are your thoughts about my Suzuki v. Honda dilema? Thanks!

The FIT was lots more fun than the CR-V on yesterday's test drive.

Got to have room for stuff, and seating for the family.

I thought the FIT would be to low for me to be comfortable in , but I think I'm changing my mind.

Just wondering if you purchased the Fit. I'm also in Westerville and have just test drove one at Rousch. I'm also considering a Suzuki Aerio. Any advice?

A&J has been really easy to do business with. They are reasonably quick with responses; I've contacted them via PM, email and phone, all will ease. I've spoken to both Ben and Dickson, and both seem very nice and easy to deal with. I did a lot of searching before i bought my spoiler due to the fairly steep price, and they seem to have good prices on all of their merchandise. I plan on doing a lot of ordering from them and recommend them to anyone.
(wow, what a plug... seriously though, A&J Racing rocks!)

Sthiegs, i've never driven a suzuki, and don't know much about the Aero, so i can't give you much of a comparison. BUT, i do own a fit and absolutely love it. my previous car was an s2ooo and i thought that i would end up hating the fit (one extreme to the other), but i have to admit, it's a great little car. its got a lot of room and is very comfortable. i'm very happy with my decision and think if you got one you would like it as well. you'll just have to get the info you can on both and see what's right for you. i hope you pick the fit so i can welcome you to the club. good luck.

I don't have a Fit (yet). I was bitten by the Honda Bug when I got my S2000 and I'd really like to get a Fit as my daily driver. I'm probably going to hold off for a while though - I just picked up a cheap Tempo that is really clean and runs well, so that's my daily driver for now.

I don't know anything about the Suzuki. I've heard very good things about the Fit, but I'm a little biased now too. I wouldn't mind checking out the Toyota Yaris...

Good luck!
Dave
