Picked up mine on Wednesday....still getting used to it. So far, the mileage is clicking in at 7.1 Liters per 100 Km.
That works out at 33.12 MPG, with less than 200 km on it so far.

..bought an 09 SSM April 21/09 at Nanaimo Honda...just off the ship!
It's the Canadian LX automatic model(the one with the "wheels that look like barf" according to a poster on this forum..lol)
The $1000.00 PST rebate(automatic discount) is still in effect here in B.C.
I paid extra for the following options:
~Center console armrest
~hood deflector (thanks to Manxman for strongly recommending this!)
~locking wheel nuts
...and the dealer threw in the back splash guards.
I may be buying a car cover this week as they're on sale at Canadian Tire.
I refused to pay the price of the Honda Car mats and am quite happy with the Pants Saver car mats which I'll post about on a separate thread.
I will also be getting the back half windows tinted, probably 15 or 20 percent sometime in the next couple of months and till try and post a pic then.
I would like to thank everyone for all the GREAT information posted here...I learned a lot in these last 6 weeks and had a fairly good idea immediately this was the vehicle I would be buying after my old Dodge Caravan was stolen in early March.
I really felt like I went into the dealership knowing more than they do, and how NOT to get suckered in with the extra add ons!!
I think this forums knowledge helped save me a good chunk of change.

Picked up my 09 SSM Fit, as a daily driver to my 08 Evo GSR.
Seems like a fun little car so far. I want some mods, probably an HKS exhaust, maybe some coilovers...
Gotta get A/W floormats, cargo tray and the bumper applique.

The fiancee got an 09 tidewater blue Fit Sport AT. Both of us like the car.
Right now the mods are meshing the lower grille, getting foglight films, and better bulbs for the headlights. Maybe headlight films too. The plastic looks weak.

I just traded in my 2003 Element EX AWD on a 2008 Fit Sport with only 4700+ miles on Tuesday! It looks brand new inside & out! So far so good!
I have already ordered the WeatherTech FloorLiners for the front & back seats. I need a cargo mat of some sort (preferably covering the seats when folded down) to help protect the car when hauling my dog. I also want some sort of center console/armrest.

Just bought a 2009 Fit Sport with a manual for my new loooong commute. I traded in my 2008.5 Nissan Titan that I'd bought just last August (luckily I bought it very cheap).
I'm still getting used to such a small car, but it's fairly fun to drive and certainly a change from what my wife and I are used to.
Here it is (with my wife's now HUGE Pacifica in the garage).
Sorry for the quality, but they are iPhone photos

I originally got a vivid blue pearl GD3 back on May 15 but had to return it yesterday 'cause financing fell through. HOWEVER, they got me financed (at a lower interest rate) for a brand new milano red GE8. I'm stoked. I can't wait to add a few things like the rear applique, cargo cover, etc.

2009 AT Sport w/NAV+VSA, Blue Sensation. picked it up friday and had the accessories added monday.
added sport grill, ambient lighting, carpet mats, body panel, door edge film, door sill applique, bumper applique, cargo mat, and cargo cover.
door sill applique missed the work order so have to go back to get that.
Traded in an 11 year old Neon just shy of 120k when the automatic transmission started to slip.
