I test drove one a while back and it reminded me of my 1979 Civic CVCC 5-speed. LOVED that little car.

Anyone, please share some pictures of the new addition.

thanks, mr.gurney.

yah, when i first got the 2008 5MT it reminded me of the 91 civic hatch i had. the 2009 AT does fine just as long as i dont drive it.

i hate the frikken AT in that car.

the new 2012 is MT and seating position was HELLS BETTER than the 2008 5MT which felt like riding my kid's bike so i was sold immediately.

i suppose i will post up some snaps tomorrow.

wow, quite a work whore you were today.

GJ!!

have fun out there at the meet.

i think im going to do the waterless wash tonight too. it's still too windy and the last thing i need is dust collecting in the water beads while drying the car.

congrats on the Fit, kenchan! I am not up to date, but what were your criteria when purchasing this car and what other models did it beat out?

Are you guys talking about Chinese Take-Out in here????

Mr.kenchan,

Congrats on the purchase!!!

I am glad to hear you are picking up the Fit tomorrow, it meets all your criteria and you'll be happy and worry free!!

And you are very welcome to consider my suggestion

, I always love to help people to spend their money...

those are for the Fit

, or for the Z

???

mr.alcheng- LOL!

@ chinese take outs. thanks again.

yah, those bits are for the new car.

actually my 370Z runs fujimura which is an axleback. the z's exhaust is aquate imho, other than the backpressure the muffler section has to muffle the sound. take that bit out and some post MAF tubes and the rpm rev freely to redline.

thanks, bruce.

criteria was simple.. cargo space with rear seat up, 4 door hatch, fuel efficient, regular gas, reliable, and pretty good looks. and for me, since i already have a 2009, a lot of the bits are compatible.

the closest condenders i considered were:

2012 Impreza hatch (not a bad car, availability issues, price on higher end, just didnt care for subaru quality and service historically bad experience)

MS3 (was my original choice but turned out not as good as i remembered from an earlier test drive i did back in 2009, and #2 from most expensive).

Fiesta hatch (didnt like the interior, quite small cargo space)
Focus hatch (just didnt care for this car, im not a ford person)

SonicLTZ hatch (cargo space too small)

GTI 5dr (great interior and all, but pricy, and driving dynamics like a sedan, dealer unwilling to work with price, most expensive).

Juke SV 6MT(great driving dynamics, i liked the character, fun to drive, but cargo space and interior too small)

used STI's... all were either modded or one was in an accident per carfax...didnt feel like paying for new one.. would've gotten one even premium gas.

i already have a 2009 (same shape with minor differences but crappy AT) so not very exciting.

the sales guy cracked up when i got out of the Fit and said 'this isn't a very exciting car.'

hahaha.

Ahhhh-the journey is complete! Congratulations mr.kenchan! No more challenging drives to honda dealer! Good for you!
