I got myself a magsafe phone mount for the Fit and I love it! Using the little side window makes for zero windshield obstruction, which is great.

Where do you all mount your electronics and what mounts do you use?

Mugen Style 2023 RS models.

When I bought my car the first thing I wanted to upgrade was the headunit. I like doing things right once so meaning I wanted the top unit on the market, well 1 of them. Was opting for the 9000es Sony unit, unit + labour would have cost me 1800nzd. I'm also a cheapskate so I searched for alternatives. I had a tablet laying around that was being unused. Long story short. Cost me under 50bucks to fit this in haha. Call me cheap, I'll call me wise. Tablet, 2 vent phone holders (magnetic, full coverage not the thin Donut types) wallah we've got a cheap upgrade. Not Bluetooth but I would only use it for maps and Spotify anyways. The better the tablet the more options you will have. Tablet I'm using is M10 Lenova.

Did all the work myself, I swear it feels faster, I swear!

105k miles, $4800!

I have purchased my first car ever after driving a car my mother bought for me in college for 18 years. I had a Nissan Versa and I made it to 178K miles before he died. I wanted a similar car with good gas mileage, reliable and relatively low maintenance costs and stumbled upon the world of Honda Fits. Fell in love immediately and had to have one. I found out they were discontinued in the US in 2020, but no worries because I never planned on buying a new car anyway. I got this baby just a few days ago and lucked out with the EX-L version. I love him! I cannot wait to go on so many adventures with this baby! I got it at 61K miles.

After searching locally and a bit non-locally for the better part of 2 months I finally found a clean 1 owner “low” mile (109k) honda fit in manual! Bought is sight unseen at least in person. Had pictures sent and carfax and then had it shipped to me

It’s an absolute blast. I’m coming from a 2019 Corolla hatchback, and a few years back I owned a full auto cross setup EG6.

Already picked up a few mods like Seb’s CDV delete/Dead pedal, and today I’m installing HR short throw shifter. I have a few more things planned which leads me to my 1st question.

Any recommendations for good coilovers? Car will be driven 80-90% on the street and used as a daily, mainly just want to lower 1-2” and ride somewhat comfortably while improving handling.

PFA. Hello everyone, again!

I wanted to know if there was anything to look out for or that I should prioritize first. I just picked up the 2008 Honda fit sport manual, and while it had had the valve adjustment, spark plugs, coils changed, looking at the carfax you realize one thing quickly.

All those things were 3-10 years ago. Car has 110k miles so looking at the records it barely got driven, so alot of stuff seems more time than age dependent.

Oil has already been changed, next on my list is transmission fluid since there’s no mention in the records, is there anything else people recommend?

No idea how that even happens. I guess someone rubbed up against it with something metal. Went all the way through so no polishing out. Looks like I'll be trying my hand at touch up.

Gonna switch from Toyota Auris 2007 to this beauty. Wife already owns a 3rd gen :)

According to the seller this is the HOME package GR1.

Where can I find out exactly about this package pls?

Drew this up of my car but not sure what to add to it. Really like the idea of turning into a t-shirt. Would love ideas from real owners :)
