U know how much they had the Injen intake priced at? $995.00!!!! Cat-Back was $1695.00!!!!!!!!

If I ever see that car on the street I'm gonna slap the driver

That is insane!!!!!

I would NEVER pay 25g's for a 15g car, and 10g's for bolt on's!!! I would tell that dealer to shove it up there a**!!!!...lol 1000 bucks for an intake...i would slap them...lol

front end reminds me of an RSX. I liked it til I saw it from the side. Its mediocre. Old body style is better IMO

Peppy? I test drove one just the other day just for shits and giggles. Oh...my...God... my mountain bike has more pep than that thing. It may look cute, but it's just a soap box derby car with Toyota reliability.

The new Fit is actually growing on me. My first impression... little minivan. But I guess if you throw a nice set of wheels on it with low profile tires it could look pretty cool. As someone said before, I too like the Civic steering wheel. I also like that it has paddle shifters! If Honda's entry level car now has them, the Civics have to be next in line!

I wonder if the paddle shifters would help or hurt mpg?

It looks like something that rhymes with Fit. I like the styling of the 1st gen Fits so much better.

Bandit03 · 03-27-2008, 03:27 PM

looks good for a minivan .. or golf cart w.e you wanna call it

I dunno, there was four of us in the car, and we were just cruising along at 80mph on the 101 FWY for a Dodger game.

I mean, it's not FAST, but I liked the fact that it's still driveable.

PizzaFace · 03-27-2008, 03:33 PM

I like this Fit a lot better. Though, as many have said, it looks much better from the front than it does the side. Could be a fun little car to screw around with instead of messing up my Si's warranty.

sdblurjdmsquad · 03-27-2008, 04:54 PM

WOW is that the new odessey...
i still kinda want one but its too small..
i dont want a cute car!

***Special Ringpop*** · 03-27-2008, 05:00 PM

I think I might be the only one who likes the current one FAR more than this. This....looks like a miscarriage.

Nope, I hate the 2nd gens too

I like...

HONDuke! · 04-06-2008, 01:52 PM

first thing i noticed was the steering wheel also.

I also agree that the Fit now is way better.

arisenfury · 04-06-2008, 01:59 PM

It's weird how current Fit owners and fans of the 1st gen Fits hate the new ones, and people who don't like the 1st gens prefer the new ones.

02civicsi · 04-06-2008, 05:28 PM

I

the 1st gen that we own but more than likely we will trade-in '10 or '11 for the 2nd gen. The wife drives it & she wants a moonroof.

arisenfury · 04-06-2008, 05:41 PM

I'm pretty sure the 2nd gens aren't coming with a moonroof over here either.

02civicsi · 04-06-2008, 05:54 PM

It's all good for me but the wife will be upset. I want to remove the moonroof from my FA5 for the weight savings since it'll be coming off the top of the car.

***Cybergypsy*** · 04-06-2008, 05:55 PM

I am waiting till it goes hybrid

***Cybergypsy*** · 04-06-2008, 05:57 PM

I would get a mini :)

arisenfury · 04-06-2008, 06:21 PM

The President of Honda Japan already stated that they have no plans to ever have a hybrid Fit. What do Minis have to do with Fits?
