The yellow gt's only come with soft top in the us. I'll get a removable HT soon. Besides, with the retractable HT, you can't fit a roll bar. Gotta have a removable HT for that

Hey JC, Let me know if you hear of any decently maintained older model Cadillac that is for sale up there... I keep just missing the good ones I see on Craigs list.. I'm looking to spend about $5K.. You get around a lot more than I can and might hear about something I wouldn't... I'm open to Volvo as well. Thanks

I hope my body will cooperate at the same time as my brain so I have my car back together when you are back down this way... We were only only 20 minutes from JC when we headed back to town when you were down her last. I'll need to stick some serious tires on my RPF1s to get close to you guys and maybe grow some bigger balls... I'll see if my doctor thinks I need testosterone therapy... If so maybe we can head out to Dallas and find some very nice dirty legged ladies... If so I'm sure JC will foot the bill... If not I will for you if I can do a video and post the interaction on YouTube...

Guys, the time has come for me to move on. Between work and life, I don't get to track as often as I would like and hanging on to my Fit is not practical and it's like keeping a lion caged. I'm letting her go. She needs a good home so let me know if you are interested!

I just saw your ad on Craigslist.... What in the hell is going on man... Has somebody got dirt on you and is extorting you for money... Did you knock up a federal judges wife and she ratted on you to him??... Why would you do this after all of that work????

haha no TC, none of the above. I am very happy with the car and what its designed to do, however, just work and life has really taken a toll on me. I would be much happier with the money in my pocket. I'm in that stage in my life where I am wanting a house and all that great stuff. Feel like my life ,sense I've known it, has been centered around cars. As though I live to work on a car or modify cars. I'm just tired. I'm very much so still an enthusiast, and I'm really falling in love with the whole RWD thing. The fit's handling is amazing, but RWD is different. Everyone has a dream car, sense I can remember, I've always wanted a Lotus or an NSX. Never know what I might dive into next. haha On a serious note, I have big plans for life and I am not emotionally attached to anything I own. Of course I will miss it by selling it but I have missed every car I've sold haha.
