Yes yes! $3400 more than the base model! And in Europe and other parts, VSA is an addable option for MUCH less!! (Well, time eventually to do a post on that and figure out if it can be added.)

Back on topic, saw a copper Fit on the way back from the cabin; little bugger looked just like a FMJ projectile...still like my red, but I'm warming up to the copper.

Yes, thank you!! [I don't have one, but..] I really think that that "Orange Revolution Metallic" really doesn't give itself enough credit by calling itself orange rather than copper. I think it really looks a lot more like a very attractive copper color. Personally, I don't typically like 'orange', but I do like the ORM - copper!

I'm thinking that the copper color seen is Blaze Orange, which is VERY copper and gorgeous!

So I've been reading around the threads and I'm now considering the Black or White Fit with the VSA and NAVI. My question is if I opt for the navi can I swap out that navi for an aftermarket navi? I'm really considering this model for the VSA since the winter and spring seasons can get harsh here. Thanks.

I love VBP, but dislike the BSP, so I vote ORM

Ok guys... So I opted for the ORM Fit. I just loved the way the color stood out and plus... there were already too many blue cars on the road. Haha. But thanks for all your guys' input. I appreciate it.

You can check out the pictures here. Mods to come...
