^^ don't display your VIN online man... identity theft and fraud are rampant.
I work in the insurance industry, not smart thing to do

Not a big deal, that's far from being a VIN.

I just got the same news from Richmond Honda some time in June, I hoping for the 16th. The FIT must be close to sold out in canada for the 2006/2007 run The dealer didn't even have a FIT in the show room. With the small first run of the FIT and with the style changing for 2008/2009 we could have a collector

See, Carter Honda wouldn't even give me a date anymore

As long as I assume it's arriving sometime around the end of eternity, anything earlier will be an improvement. BTW, Honda Canada is having the 1% early GST cut too, so make sure you get it. Ads all over the Province

My dealer told me today that they haven't even had the allocations yet for June, let alone July. Does that make sense? How can they not know what they're getting in June? I'm confused...how the heck does this car business work???

I only ordered it a little over a week ago so I know that mine will be a looooong time still; I just don't understand how they don't know whats coming to their dealership for June. Is that normal to not know until the last minute?

Sorry to hear your salesman quite.

If I can help let me know I'm at the Richmond Honda too.

My sales manager knew in May what he'd be getting in June.

Something doesn't add up.

my friend, you are very fortunate you had a very honest sales manager.
the guys I dealt with weren't that forthcoming with information and thought that the best customer service was to tell lies, half-truths, and overpromising..

I'm glad I got my Fit tho.. hehehe took too long imho.

It's unfortunate some try to act dumb. Maybe they will know the May shipment in July... Right.

Got a call from my salesman today and was told that only 2 Sport Manual transmission was allocated to Alberta in the upcoming shippment. If I want to wait, the next allotment will be on Sept . It'll be a long wait ....
