Just wondering if there is a Honda Fit community in the area.

Would be great to see some other Fits and what everyone has been doing with them.

 

I'm in South Carolina currently, but will be in Minnesota in November.

 

Visiting or moving?

I heard SC is a very nice area.

 

I'll be vacationing in Minneapolis (staying in Bloomington near the Mall of America) September 1-4.

 

Oh, Sorry. I will be moving there for a few years.

 

I'm from Minneapolis! I've lived here for about 20 years. Just got my Fit last month

 

Cool! Enjoy the visit!

Wow! Welcome to the midwest.

I got mine last month too. Which model and color did you get?

 

I got an 09 Base in Crystal Black She's pretty.

 

Looking forward to a picture! If you post it in the general photo/video section be sure to add a link to that here too.

Thanks. I actually start my vacation this afternoon, driving from Springfield, IL to Wisconsin Dells. I'll be in the Dells for two nights, then on to Minneapolis. Looking forward to it!

 

Thanks! It's going to be a different world than I'm used to. I get to expirience winter first, lol. I'm moving to the Chanhassen/ Chaska/ Eden Prarie area. I should be there sometime mid October.

 

MN Fit here, its cool there are some Fit freaks up here. JPGC winter will be fun, lol. With how much salt that gets put down in the winter month try and run the car threw a wash once a week. at the very lest once a month.

 

Oh No Doubt, thanks for the advice. I am crazy particualar about keeping my cars clean, lol. I can imagine that the black is a PITA and keeps you busy. Where is a good place to get undercoating/ oiling done in the Twin Cities area?

 

Picking up a Black 2010 sport w/Nav here in a few weeks. Just wanted to check in from Eagan, MN.

Anyone from Mpls ever meet up? I get together with some BMW 5series.net friends every Tuesday at Buffalo Wild Wings in Eagan if any of you are interested. I'd love to see some of your rides.

 

Im not from Minnesota but i think MN is the closest on here to Nebraska lol. Anyone driven a Fit in snow? How do they handle? Im coming from an 07 Si to a Fit.

 

For me, snow handling has been great. But snow pushing can be a problem. I got stuck once last winter backing into the street- no snow plow on my street. Both deep snow and high ruts are tough- in reverse, the skirt hits snow and can push the back end up eliminating any traction.

 

Yea i wasnt sure how well it would go in the winter cause its relatively low and doesnt weigh much.

 

Shit I think I have seen your BMW around Eagan. car looks good and congrats on the Fit. I would meet up with some people on mnsportcompacts.net every Tuesday in Apple Valley for the South meets. Its kind of been packed up for the year though.

Fit does all right in the winter, last year on the stock tires and lowered on Progress springs I had no problems. This year I picked up some snow tires so the car should be great this winter.

 

bringing this back from the dead i actually see quite a bit of fits here. its just i don't think even 1/4 of them actually see their fits more then a B class car. sometimes i wish i live in cali.
