09 Fit Base Model + 09 Sport Spoiler
#42
IMO, it makes more sense (cents) to buy the base model. A) you skip on the heavy factory wheels and B) you don't finance the sport bumper, side skirts, spoiler, and wheels over 5 years.
$170 for sport bumper
$154 for L side skirt
$154 for R side skirt
$230 for spoiler
Total $742
Base model MSRP 15,610 (D/H) + 742 = 16,352
Fit model MSRP 17,120 (D/H)
Use the remaining ~$800 (actually much more since you're not financing this portion) and buy a set of decent wheels and rubber. Now you've got a car that will run circles (albeit slowly) around a factory sport.
I got my base model used (with 15,000 miles)...so couldn't pass up an unbelievable deal.
Just my 2 cents.

I didn't realize the sport has a different tailgate and I've already purchase my oem spoiler.
1. Is there any difference besides the pre drilled holes?
2. After drilling holes into your base tailgate and adding the spoiler. Does it look 100% factory compared to the sport tailgate and spoiler?
3. Does water leak into your car when you wash it or when it rains?

Only other diff I know of is our base models have a key hole for use with a physical key and the sport models do not since they came with keyless (pushbutton) entry.
