I got the final draft of the photoshoot we did for the car show in August. Thought it turned out pretty nice .... good to see the Fit representing!



Ok they are having a trophy for the most illegal - can't wait to see that entry! It should be interesting!

new fit owner, 08 OBM 5speed

just bought it bout 2 1/2 weeks ago... anyways

got my all weather floor mats in couple days ago, just vacuumed and installed yesterday. still haven't trimmed the rear, still debating on keeping the rear ones. the cargo tray was a snug fit (all weathertech). also got my zeta hood deflector in today, will probably be washing and putting it on tomorrow.

ps. i hate how our cars are a glutton for rock chips on the hood.

lovin it so far, 35+mpg yee.

Drove the car for the first time sense Wednesday... I kind of miss the Fit not being my daily driver any more, I don't get to drive it as much as I would like.

It's a good idea to have different sets of wheels and tires for different purposes... I have 15"X7" 44mm Enkei RPF1s to mount performance tires on for summer driving and 16"x6.5" Kosei wheels that have 205-50-16 Goodyear GTs for all around driving comfort and safety... I hope I can get some 195-50-15 sticky tires for my RPF1s before too long.. The Goodyear tires have amazing traction but the weight of 25 lbs per tire and 11.8 for the wheels is only about 1/2 lb less than what my GD3 came with.. A lighter wheel/tire combination increases the rate of acceleration big time... The only drawback is that they don't last very long if you are on the throttle to much.... It does make a huge impression on people that look at my car and assume that the old guy must have borrowed his kid's little rice wagon when the front tires don't hook up until 40MPH in 2nd gear..

Thanks for the info, yeah I have my Konig Lightning 205/40/16 for Daily driving, but when I want to take a longer trip i dont want to wear my tires or ruin my rims
then use the honda civic stocks for comfort & gas saving
