I had a 98 camry xle v6 (basically a lexus ES300 w/out the badges). Steering rack and other problems made me trade it in for the fit.
Great car tho. Its difficult to grasp that although i lost about 1000 pounds going from the "luxury" car to "econobox" how slow this compact stationwagon is...haha. Although i'm doubling my MPG's and gaining flexibility, i've lost 1.5L in engine displacement, 85hp, and whopping 90 torque!

Anyways, this is my first new car and i'm pleased with it. Extra power just gets me into trouble =).

Anyone here go to UCI?

its okay, i learned that pushing the Fit is so fun cuz u know it's not the dangerious since you cant hit speeds that a sports car engine will take you... hahaha it's like racing down the street when other cars easily keep up

I pissed off someone in an A4 the other day cuz i tried passing him at a red light when it turned green and he thought i was trying to race him or something. I yelled out "nice Turbo!" to him after cause i distinctly heard it but i think he took it the wrong way cause i kinda kept up.. He wouldnt even look over! hahah! Sexy exhaust note on my car pissing off Audis FTW!

2000 Acura TL 3.2

I traded it in for my NHBP Sport. I use to cost me a grip on premium gas since I have a 60+ Miles per day commute
