Goodness bro this is hilarious!

BTT:
Funny, I never really thought about that, "christening" the car. No real rituals to speak of from my end.

I just get in and drive it I guess...usually on a pointless drive to my dad's hometown two hours away, then back. This was how I amazed myself with 28.024 km/L - or 66 MPG! - without even trying. Can't repeat it though since I changed wheels from the stock 14" to 16".

Are you going to name your new Fit after a female Jazz singer?.... It would seem to be the appropriate thing to do.

Well I've already picked it out...the singer is kinda jazzy... Adele.
This is the first car that I've picked out the name ahead of time. Hope it's not bad luck .

I guess I could name her Diana (Krall) but I have had some issues with her music lately (a whole 'nother story).

You know you can avoid stains, kinda. I spilled a whole bunch of water on the floor between the seats yesterday, and apparently the sealer or whatever I had put on it works because it was still all beaded up after sitting overnight. Absolutely none of it soaked in. Dry carpet with water on top for 12 hours, boggles the imagination.

There's always painter's tarps LOL

Just curious... why are you selling your Fit? Want a new one?
lol, yea that'll prolly be my next "ritual" to getting a car from a dealer.

it was supposed to be paid off by the time I started school this fall but some ish happened and I we weren't able to and I definitely don't feel like working another year to manage that...granted it is nice always having money lol. have a fs/ft thread for both the fit n sol on here so yea, hoping something can happen.

Kyle goes to so much effort to provide an authentic JDM styling feature to a car and it isn't appreciated..... I would advise everyone to lock their doors and hide the keys if Kyle is seen in your area.

I get paid by people that don't even know what "JDM" means,..
The older men always give me a nice tip as well.
