Congrats! I know nothing about the Fit. Why’d you buy it?

Cheaper to own.

Nice! I didn’t realize that the Juke and Fit were so close in height.

Not as quirky but still pretty quirky . I do like it in white. The blue is my fav tho.

White is good for Martini Stripes.

Nice! Let us know your first impressions after picking it up.

Are you planning on auto crossing it?

That’s a very nice shifter- my sister had one for a while.

you should celebrate buy putting something large in the back of it. Just because you can. Also enjoy your magic seats, and your secret compartment.

Welcome to the club.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Also I will forever be jealous of your black headlights.

I’ve been begging for a Fit Si since 2006.

in foreign markets they have am HR-V with 1.5 turbo motor which means it does if in the Fit... 160hp would be a TON in the Fit.

An era of Oppo is done.

It truly is the end of an Era, although your Juke content dropped off a while ago already.

You’ll have to make some polarizing mods to the Fit- the car itself isn’t polarizing at all (it’s a Good Car).

Congrats!

It's white, it needs polarizing visual mods. 

WilliamsSW > The Crazy Kanuck; RIP Oppositelock 01/07/2019 at 14:32

It’s white - lots of opportunity for questionable paint/striping mods, too!

It’s always nice to get something new.

Congrats.

I’ve never driven one myself, but a buddy of mine has a manual fit. The few times I’ve ridden as passenger it felt surprisingly peppy. Should be fun.

And it’s still at least a little ugly, so your Juke heritage stays strong

Where have all the lightweights gone? > The Crazy Kanuck; RIP Oppositelock 01/07/2019 at 17:55

Excellent choice. My wife had one when we started dating, and I am still amazed how much stuff you can fit in it!

We helped a bunch of people move, and they were all floored how much stuff it could fit each trip between places.

Congratz! Welcome to the Honda family...I knew that GTI + OPPO thing was just a hype...go HONDA!!

All the 117hp from the 1.5L SOHC will be screaming making noise, but not speed.

It’ll be a shame to see it and it’s tape racing stripes be gone from these parts! :(

Welcome to the little Fit though, good cars! :)

The F it will probably get vinyl stripes of the Martini form.

So black headlights are desirable?

To me they are. They only came on the 12/13 Sports and I think they look cooler especially on light colored cars like your white, and my Tide Water blue. I also prefer the 12/13 grill and bumper. You bet your butt that if the Fit ever gets front end damage that I’m updating it.

Yeah after we bought ours I kept noticing the black headlights and wondered why ours didn’t have them. So I researched it. They are obviously bolt in for a 2010 like ours but it’s my wife’s car and she’s not going to spend money in it if she doesn’t have to. If it were my car the swap would be done by now.

I also want some Asian market Jazz style LED tailights.

Nice! Why is it always Canadian dealers that put a front plate of the car’s model year, or are you buying this in America?

The Crazy Kanuck; RIP Oppositelock > Under_Score 01/10/2019 at 14:11

Buying in Canada.

Could you buy in America if you wanted to, though? You found the good deal in Canada, but I’m just asking in a general sense. Unlike Mexico, where they sell a variety of different models, US and Canada cars are basically identical.

The Crazy Kanuck; RIP Oppositelock > Under_Score 01/10/2019 at 14:17

I could, but it's easier to buy in Canada.

I had a thought cross my mind. Do you know the country of manufacture for the Fit? Or maybe the first 3 digits of the vin?

I do know it's a Chinese built Fit.

Ahh that’s what I was wondering. I remembered reading an article about Chinese made Fit’s being some of the first Chinese cars to come to Canada.
