I saw 2 VBP Sports today, one on Dairy Ashford (I waved but the girl driving didn't look my way) and one out on Mason Road. It was dusk and I almost didn't realize it was a Fit until it was too late.

No one ever waves. :P Butt-heads.

I got the perfect idea for your situation. Get a train horn on your Fit, blow it, then do the goofiest wave as possible. Sure, they may not wave back; but it definitely got their attention.

ROFL! That *would* get attention, all right, maybe cause a fender-bender!

Saw a BSP driving down 71 south in Cincinnati. Rear bumper covered with Obama stickers. He was driving faster than I do down that highway.

Too many is definitely ghetto. A tasteful sticker here or there isn't bad though. I personally always put one little Apple sticker on my cars since I'm a longtime Mac user. Still haven't with my new fit though.

Would you call a bumber sticker that said " Tattoo's get you laid!" tasteful?
Just kidding! I had that bumper sticker on my Mazda MX-3. I got the sticker from a tattoo place in dallas, tx when i got my tattoo there. Anyways, back to what this thread is about. I saw 1 fit today on my way in too work. An elderly couple pulled up next to me at a light in a black fit and and the lady in the passenger side turned to me and waved. They had some aftermarket 16 or 17's on it, but the car had Canadian plates on it. (Yuma, AZ gets a LOT of winter visitors from up north!)

I saw about 4 Fits yesterday, I'm starting to notice them a lot more now. Lol, I'm always looking to see if they have any mods but have yet to see one non-stock.

There was 3 GDs, 2 in black and 1 in Lunar Mist. As I was turning into my street, I looked in my side mirror to see a "familiar face" lol. There was an SSM GE coming my way. It's the first time I've seen the one I want, I nearly hit the curb.

Yeah, I hear you. My almost-18-year-old still isn't allowed on the freeways...gotta get some weekend miles in one of these days, but people around here drive like their tails are on fire...

Maybe next time, huh?

p.s. No one was drinking or anything. We're a clean bunch, we freaks.

Here on the mean streets of Minneapolis (heh heh), if I drive for any longer than 10 mins on any busy traffic day, I will always see a couple Fits... and we always have a good wave for each other.

Yeah hopefully; I told them about there not being any substances like that at the meet, but that didn't curve their decision.

Anywho, I spotted a total of 7 Fits today. 6 GD3s and 1 GE8 all of which were sports. First I seen a MR GD3 going south on 288, then a TW about 5 minutes later. While eating at Joe's Crab Shack another TW GD3 passed on 288, this time going north. On the way to H.E.B. I seen a TWB GE8 at a light and then a VBP GD3 parked in a lot. Two minutes later I seen another MR GD3 this time parked in the H.E.B. lot right by the gas station. Then at the 521/288 junction there was a TWB GD3 that turned onto 521 and I followed it till 523; at which I made a left turn.

I think Fits are attracted to you dude! You see more of them on a daily basis than anyone north of the Mason-Dixon line!
