My girl just placed an order for a 2007 Honda Fit. It's going to be Milano Red with the sports package and 5-speed Auto with paddle shifters. Plus, she's already got plans for some Mugen and Spoon parts. I can't wait to drive it. I'll post pics when she gets it. They said end of March/early April it should arrive.



She cancelled her order for a Yaris hatch after seeing better photos of it. She likes the fact the Fit comes fully loaded from the start, plus the Magic seats kick azz.

looks like an awesome car, reminds me of a smaller Toyota Matrix

hotbox05

that thing is pretty ugly. and a honduh. pricing is nice tho..

THE_DON

YES! I used to own a Matrix, and she loved it. I guess that's why she likes this one.

Yeah, most people say the same about my box... :shrug:

As long as she likes it, it's cool. And from the plans she has, (drop, rims, tint, Custom leather, mugen and spoon parts) hers should look nice. At least nicer than stock.

not to high-jack the thread... but before i saw the tC, i wanted a Matrix XRS, fun to drive, huge interior, and definetely reliable car that got good gas mileage.

I like it, looks to be on the same page as xAs, about same wieght and power...I bet the aftermarket support will be much better since its a Honda
Wouldn't mind one myself

Why? The Fit is not a great platform to start modding unless she's got an engine swap planned. It's relatively light, but the MX-5 is about the same weight and runs mid-15 second quarter miles. That's with 170-hp and RWD. The Fit also doesn't have great weight distribution.

THE_DON

The parts are more for looks... Like Spoon spoiler, Mugen Grille, ect... She might do an intake or something like that, but she has no intention to race anyone. She drives like a granny. I doubt she even knows what horsepower means. She likes it because it's "so cute"

But I understand where you're coming from.

How much it is tho? No one really mention abt the price

THE_DON

Honda hasn't officially announced the price yet, but the website says it will be between $13,000-$14,000 starting. So it's definitely gunning straight for the Scion xA.

We're guessing the fully loaded Sport Package should top out at around $16,000.

THE_DON

Ok, the Fit is here. I got it on 4/19, one day before the official launch. I love it so far.

That's a good looking car. If that was out when I was looking for cars, I might have ended up with that, rather than my box.

HoldFastHope
