After calling all the dealers in the Columbus area, I unexpectedly got a call from one last Saturday saying that an LX had just come in. I was holding out for a Silver, but decided to check it out anyway. I wasn't expecting to buy that day, but my salesman advised me that there were more people in line to test drive if I decided not to take it.

Just took it on a road trip through Hocking Hills for my honeymoon, and it handled like a champ! I had been driving in Econ mode, but it powered uphill much easier when it was off. Overall, very happy with the purchase.

 

Congratulation! I'm jealous. None of the local dealers know when they'll get an LX on the lot.


Be sure and give us your detailed impressions over the next few days as you can.

 

Congrats Nigel, on the car AnD the marriage!

 

Gray is a nice color. Gotta wash it every so often, but the color makes the car look "upscale". I have a 13 Fit Base that is gray like yours, & I like the color. First gray car I've ever had.

 

Congrats OP. Glad you lucked out and scored one for the forum!!!

You may be washing it often, but I'll be washing my Orchid White way more. White shows everything!!! Thank god we don't have snow and slush!!!!

YOur gray is not far from my GD's Storm Silver and I hardly wash her. Wife's RX350 and previous M/T '07 FJ both silver, and I washed them even less. Silver is the best when you are lazy to clean!!!!

 

I'd love to see more photos of this! I'm so undecided which color I want to get still.

Rather see real-world photos than ones provided by Honda or press.

 

That color gray (PMM?) does a surprisingly good job at hiding dirt. I have an 08 Civic that is GGM, which is a bit more brown than PMM, but unless you get right up to the car it looks rather clean most of the time.

 

Congratz on the buy and welcome to the club!

 

 

Congrats on your purchase.

 

Do you have more photos you could post around the car?
I am looking to either get a grey or white LX and still on the fence about color.

Thanks

 

Sharp looking car good job..........

Must put smile on you face every time you leave the gas station.


HAVE FUN !
