I put my deposit down in August from Rick Case Honda in Cleveland Ohio, my original wait date was October 15. My car was not there on the 15th of October. The updated ETA was for "November". Just sometime in November. I have called a few times but still do not know when she's coming in...havn't gotten a VIN either. Starting to get worried...

I drove past the dealership's new car lot just now on my way home. No sign yet.....
Congratulations - mine should be here any day!

Mine made it to DE, it is said to be located 45mins away from the dealer (port authority), can not take that long to make it to the dealer can it??
What is confusing is that Honda changed the ETA to 13-17Nov?
JonasM, my dealer told me that my car was in Ohio via rail last friday, so I have have a feeling you should be getting a call soon...

well, i guess one positive about the long waits is you can already get a head start on paying off the car...or, stocking up on performance parts, so you can have at it once the car arrives
hopefully there won't be too much of a wait when i order mine later next year

I got the call about 1:30 today! I went down to see it on the way home. I think I'm going to like the red. Too bad I can't pick it up until Thursday, but it's just as well - I need to get a new copy of the title to my Civic that I'm selling to one of the employees at the dealership - I'll drive there in the Civic, drive home with my Fit!
5 months, 1 day. What a wait......

I love this car so much!!! I want to go keep driving but the weather is crap and its 11pm. Not late but.. You know.
But yes, this car is worth the wait!
No dead pedal doesnt bother me but no arm rest does. I'll be hittin up AJRacing for that JDM center console.

Yes, seeing from the postings in this forum a lot of red Fits seem to have arrived at the same time. I wonder what color lot is coming ashore in the next ship....

My black AT Sport Fit arrived at the Dealer yesterday November 8th. We put our deposit down on October 20th. It's at the tint shop now and will pick it up hopefully tomorrow! This is their first Fit delivery, so they had never seen the car yet either!! I bet they would love to keep it a few days just to attract more buyers.....
