Default OT: Porkchop Express has a little sister...

Well, folks... the "R" is going in the garage for some serious tuning... I'll talk about that in another thread... but for now, I traded in the Audi S4 for a Honda Fit (black on black) ... you all know what they look like, so I won't bore you with pics of my stock bucket... just know, I have been researching a new car for over 6 months now, and I kept coming back to the Fit. So today, i saw my dealer had a black manual sport, so I decided to go for it. Thing shifts like butter, so fun to drive. I'm not doing a damn thing to it either, well, maybe wheels... but all my tuning efforts will be going into the R...

here's a boring pic:



Ok, I'm going to go rev on some xB's and show 'em what's up

If I didn't need a 4x4 here, I'd be rocking the Fit for a DD. It's amazing how roomy it is on the inside. Felt like a little go-kart on the test drive.

Get some wheels and doo-dads, and you're set.

thanks for the kind words all... yes, its fun to drive! and surprisingly nimble zipping through corners... the seats have absolutely no hold though... might need to change those down the road as well... but other than that... no complaints... kind of nice having an MP3 player in the car, and I can hear the music over the sound of the exhaust.

Nice pickup- I want one as a daily. I'v talked both my parents into one, and this point there is a silverstone 5spd sport in our driveway haha. While watching a friend's "Vtec Club" dvd I was surprised to see a fit section, which had the owner of Spoon describing the Pros of the car and explained why it handled so well.

To this day I would still pick one up if the resources were available. I'm hoping they upgrade the rear brakes though, that's my only complaint.
