New To Me Fit Owner
Bought this 2008 Fit Sport with 19,322 miles. Certified pre owned Honda. Completly love this car. Have been a Honda Fanatic for about 5 years now, and am currently still building my EJ1 to crush all on the show scene. The fit is my daily driver so she wont be all out, but will look clean and stay clean. This is a very fun car to drive, more power then i was expecting it to have. Corners like a go cart. I bought the Automatic with paddle shifters. I know 5spd Blah, Blah, Blah, but try smoking, talking on phone and shifting all at the same time. Not to mention sterring with my knee! The auto is lovely, was not expecting it to shift like an stick even with the paddles, but it does. I can carry it up to 6500 shut off and hit the + paddle and BAM second gear. No clutch or shifting, its lovely. Dont hate until u try. So here are my pics. No real mods yet, but subs and spoon cap (off EJ1), but will most definetly be cleaning her up with modest mods.

That's low miles, hope you got a great deal on it, it looks hella clean. Look forward to seeing the mods you choose. I vote for tint first thing. I like the staggered look of darker in the back.

I can't believe anybody would pull that BS to begin with. It's time for everybody to wake up and remove hand held cell phones from the roads! And if they want to ax bluetooth too, let them!

Yeah, I hope he was kidding. He needs to watch this video. This is the short version, the real thing is a lot longer. But this is the critical part.

Calm down dude. You were talking about smoking, shifting and talking on the phone at the same time. Never safe no matter who is doing what. We're concerned about your life here and the lives of others...
It doesn't matter where you are, under what conditions, if you are not driving the car with your full attention, you are not really driving safely. Just because other people do the same thing does not make it right.
We're not here to bash you.

The WORST plague for drivers these days. Phones. The kids even try to text while they are driving.

You guys are a trip, definetly not on honda-tech here. I bought this fit because me and my son were hit head on by a drunk, passed out on the wrong side of the road. He had no license, insurance, money, no shit. To top that off when the cops showed up he ran, left the van and his wallet, not to mention the bag of trees in the van. Totaled my car, luckily we got out with only seat belt burns. My insurance totaled out my car and my gap insurance paid the rest.$0 dollars in or out of my pocket, but i had no car!! So here I sit Yappin at yall for a cell phone when a drunk can do what he wants? So isnt that nice. WELCOME TO AMERICA. In NYC we just flip u off and continue with life. FUCK IT! I really do appricate all the input guys and will enjoy my FIT----FA SHO!!!!

I'm so glad you both weren't killed. I really am. You need to calm down and stop being so defensive.

I agree. I was hit almost 6 months after buying my 08 Fit brand new. The girl that hit me cried while I called the police. Luckily, it was in a parking lot and not severe. She was picking up her brother while talking on her cell phone and trying to pull a fast one on me and go behind my car ACROSS the parking spaces I was backing in to. Mom saw her and yelled for me to stop. I stopped completely and she bounce off of the back bumper in a 2001 Lincoln LS. When it happened, I looked over my shoulder and she had JUST put her phone in her lap. She had cheap insurance that mommy and daddy paid for that said it was MY fault, and she hit me. $1200 in damages; I know it's not a severe accident, but it's the principle. Cell phones are every ounce as dangerous as drunk driving. Funny thing is, there IS term for both (drunk, and/or talking on the phone) and it's in the same category. It's called IMPAIRED DRIVING - that pretty much sums up anything you do that hinders your focus behind the wheels of a vehicle.

I always told my wife, "I could never be a cop." The first thing I would insist on doing after I stopped a drunk driver would be to unload my revolver. I hate drunks with a passion.

I had a conversation with a young sheriffs deputy that told me he was confused as to why marijuana was a controlled substance and alcohol was legal.... He said he had never been on a domestic violence call where there was evidence of marijuana use or an automobile accident caused by a pot smoker and the opposite was true of alcohol users..... That was 11 years ago and the same guy is now on a drug task force busting pot heads.
