why i'm glad i bought a FIT!

well, its just that, i'm glad i bought one, cause i just found out yesterday that i'm going to be a DAD!, and i'm freakin excited! trust me, four doors rule when you have kids. all my other cars are two door sport cars or a single cab truck, not so fun with kids.

why were you glad you bought a FIT?

I'm glad I bought my fit because I'm in college. LOL. What I mean by that is:
1. There is plenty of room to lug around my things when I go home for holidays.
2. Gas mileage is great = saving money.
3. The overall car was inexpensive compared with others.
4. Its a Honda so its dependable when traveling.
5. The overall appearance is good. Hey, I'm still a kid, and I "need" to look cool!

Congrats on being a father!!

I just got married two months ago and just bought my Fit about two weeks ago. Everyone is saying that I'm ready to become a dad. No sir, not yet! But I have loved the fit ever since it came out in 01'. I played a lot of Gran Tourismo and loved driving the Fit in every race I could. Then when they came state side. I damn near dropped a load in my pants! j/k. So I wanted to wait until they came out with a cool new color before I bought one. So one of the main reasons I love my fit over all the others is because its "Blackberry Pearl". Not to mention all of the awesome features that come standard!

I love my fit

I also first heard of the Fit from gran turismo. I had the spoon sports racing one. As soon as it came here i went to six different dealerships and said, "Hey, do you have any black five speeds coming in soon. Everyone said two months. I called the sixth dealership and asked the same thing. He said well im looking at one in the showroom floor. I bought it the next day. I love my fit. I actually am going to go to school in Michigan and i was going to sell it and get a used cheaper car. I had the sign up the first day and got too depressed and took it down. Ill go broke and homeless before i get rid of my car.

I bought my Fit because with two daughters under the age of 3 I carry lot's of things around, I needed the 4 doors, it needed to be good on gas and it still needed to be fun to drive for me.
