'99 Ford Contour SVT
better performance
better handling & comfort
sunroof

but...
limited cargo space, no hatch
no easy towing solution
premium gas and average mpg = double the fuel cost vs the Fit

Drove a 01 Accord 4dr. Only had it two months. Loved that car. Lost coolant on new years day on a 2 hr drive home and put a nice crack in the block. Dealer gave my money back and I bought the fit. First car I had with a sunroof and never got to use it

1996 Honda Accord. Had to get a new car ... because ... well ...



Kinda rolled it. Wasn't my fault at all. A car swerved to avoid a squirrel and caused a 3 car accident at 70 MPH.

Luckily, I'm alive and only have some extra back and neck pain.

Also my first post and owner of a new Black 2011 FIT Sport 5MT as of May 13 (there were many jokes about letting a black car cross your path) We call her "Black Betty"

The Fit is the first spanking brand new car I've ever owned. The others below were family/hand-me-downs:

1995 Grand Prix SE (got T-boned. and insurance payout paid for the next car)
1996 Grand Prix (sold it at 220k kilometers)
1997 Olds Cutlass Supreme (still have it but it is no longer road worthy. 201k kilometers and needs rear spring, struts all around, ball joints etc etc replaced.)

 

Pretty much all of my cars have been RHD as I have lived in Japan the majority of my adult life. I've actually only owned 1 LHD and that was when I moved to Guam for a little over a year and a half. Onto the list...

1988 Honda Civic Si EF3
1995 Honda Civic SiRII EK4
1989 Honda Civic SiR EF9
1994 Honda Civic SiR EG9
2003 Honda Integra R DC5





2007 Honda Snisen AP2





2010 Honda Fit RS

Unfortunately, no pics of the rides prior to the DC5R. I had before on We-Todd, but that has gone away for the most part.

 

^ Car 16. The Fit is 17. I also bought/sold a 97 Accord, which is #18.

 

I had a 2010 Mazdaspeed3 which I loved; but didn't love: Premium, the car insurance and the car payment :P

 

2005 Honda S2000 R.I.P. =(

 

1994 Acura Integra GS-R Sedan

 

263.7 WHP 1990 Miata

 

I drove a 2003 VW Polo...

 

'91 Subaru Justy
'91 Toyota Tercel
'96 Nissan Maxima (all bolt-ons)


'05 Mazda RX8 Grand Touring (mostly stock)

 

Wow, I vaguely remember your name from my miata days lol. I had a 350whp Kraftwerk's S/C s2000 CR with 16k miles before moving onto the Fit. Do not miss the s2k at all, but a miata I can see being a part of my life in the future.

 

like a boss, hell yeah!

 

I just bought an '11 Fit for daily driving but I still have these for the weekends...
