26 and the Fit is my 13th car, 1st new one! My favorite car was a 94 Civic Si Hatch that i had in 99-01. I loved that car and should have never sold it!
But now I have my Fit and I am really starting to love it! :-)

Ok I be the first ol fart to post to this thread - I am 51 and the Fit is my number 8 vehicle to own. My last ride was a Ford Ranger XLT which I had for 11 years.(I use to own a horse and had to have the truck to haul hay and saddles) The Fit was my answer to mid-life crisis and I was determined to get fun and function on 4 wheels. It has made me feel young again to crawl into the car and represent the freak in me!!!

I'm 23, i'll be 24 the 22nd of Nov. My Fit is my 4th car. Started with a Ford Ranchero(don't miss it). Then got my Supra turbo then a Pathfinder. Traded Pathfinder for the Fit, Supra is in the garage waiting for me to have more money.

Happy birthday to our 35-year-old! Hope it was a good birthday!
Me, I'm 46.
So I have been driving for over 30 years, and have driven some very nice cars, but never a more fun car.
I love FitFreak. It's fun hearing the POV of so many younger people, and I do still learn stuff from people much younger than I am (KoolKevin for example).
Best to y'all.

Ok, lemme get this straight. Your 13th?
Assuming you started when you were 16, a little less than a car per year on average. wtfm8

It appears that I'm the oldest one posting (so far). I'm 63, and I could not be happier with my MT SSM Sport. I've owned everything from a 1965 Mustang 289 4bbl 4speed, and a 1969 Fiat 850 Spyder 4 speed, to a 1978 Datsun 280Z 5 speed (all new) and then five Datsun/Nissan trucks.
The Fit is by far the most fun to drive, (of course it won't do 120 MPH+) and the best mileage (and I have not received a ticket yet.)
So, unless some other "old codger" steps up to the plate and admits to being older than dirt (me), I just may win the title: "Old Fogey Fit Freak."

Look at that nice age curve. Do you guys think it's an accurate representation? Ah, statistics...

good question lol. i'd have to guess no. most of us who browse on the internet and forums are around the 17-30 year old range since we grew up in times when computer/internet started to grow a lot right? and generally speaking, older fit owners probably have some more important things to do. but i'm just guessing really.

Nope - you're not the oldest. See my post on p.1 of this thread. I got my drivers license when I was 16 - that was 50 years ago. Do the math!
Got my SSM MT SPORT last November - 179 days after ordering it. Worth the wait.

I'm in the middle group with my 38 year.
This is the first car registred on me. Third car total. First I had a BMW 733mi for 5-6 month. But it was too expensive for me. Both to drive and to own so I sold it again with money to spare
Later I used the car from my dad, it was an Vauxhall VX2300 '79. But after some years with a lot of use and the car was 15 year old there was too many faults on it and too hard and expensive to get parts for it so it was "put down"
From '98 and up to '07 I have had a car for my disposal from the company I work at. The first one a Renault Kangoo and now I have a Toyota Yaris. Both with only two seats and lots off tools and stuff in the rear.
So getting a brand new car straight from the factory was a joy! I just love my little nice Jazz
