Put my wheel on and drove it to work today. Of course, I stopped at Sheetz to invest in my retirement.

yah, im definitely be keeping an eye open on amazon the next few months and grab it at the lowest price. i want the bigger 7" screen vs my 5.8" in the Z right now. my G has a 7" screen and it's a night/day difference when i get in my Z.

hello, mr.zman. yah, my G's been asleep since halloween and my Z's been in hibernation for a couple of weeks now too. can't wait for Spring!

i bought a new '12 fitsport in august as my beater and did some light mods on it and driving that pretty much everyday now that it's winter. it's MT and for what it is, it's fun to drive and drives nice (swift springs and dws). hope to keep the thing running for 10yrs total.

I cant wait for spring either since the z will have quite a few more mods by that time.

Im glad you're enjoying the fit and want it to last 10 years. Do you drive it spiritaly? Im not sure if dd's survive 10 yesrs of spirited driving

I may consider the fit sport when my scion lease ends 2013. Ill also look at the 2013 new golf, next gen cooper s, 500 abarth and the fiesta st or even focus st. I like the scion xd but they are done making this model after this year.

yah, hope they turn out well for you.

having the smaller mirror and raising the seat will most-likely take care of the visibility issue for good.

i'd expect the evor one to also have a convex contoured mirror so that your blind spots are all gone too. on my craftsquare, i dont shoulder check cause i dont need to. i dont even move my head when checking driver side.

i only drive it spiritedly once in a while and most of my time in the Fit, im just listening to music and relaxing in it. the car feels best when not pushed. i actually enjoy driving it while running errands.

after checking out many different hatches i settled on the fitsport. it's by far best bang for the buck. and the MT's are actually pretty quick unlike the AT ones. not street racing or anything, but i did pull along a BRZ the other weekend and my Fit was actually faster by 1/2 car length from a stop into an expressway and the guy could not reel me in while in 2nd gear up to 60mph. that's when we both backed off the throttle.

2013's the last year honda's making these in japan for US market. after that, it's going to be made in mexico and the ones currently sold in canada are made in china.

which do you like better? dark wheels...

light color wheels... (never mind my camera bag in the background.

)

Pintsize725 · 11-28-2012, 03:50 PM

Ken, come to the dark side! (of which I am not a member of yet

)

I like the bright wheel look -- not chrome bright -- polished bright.

i can't believe the ninja modder Kenchan has yet to take care of that-i would be freaked wondering when it was going to happen-you better get on the ball there fella

Mr.kenchan, I honestly like the NISMO wheels better, cos 5-spokes concave is my personal preference.

But... I will suggest you stay with the Weds since it adds personality to your Z.. which is a good thing...

The camera bag....

"Crop"..... "Crop".....

Hi guys. Is that Kensan?? OMG what is up Kenman? Oh and what did you do with my Drunken Ninja Raccoons. They went to your house and never returned.

You won't consider PSS?? Put the PSS on the one you choose to use more often or spirit motoring....

Then wrap the DW on the other set...

Personally I don't really like the RE11, mainly is 1) Price 2) Wet Performance 3) Tread Wear.

The Z is only 14 months old, but I am going to try to take out the fuse on next Wed, still, having a peace of mind is the most important.
