    Woohoo! Congrats! I love my Fit.

    Last race Mr. Andrea and I went to, we packed (among other things): both roadbikes (upside down, wheels off), his TT bike (upside down, wheels off, seatpost/saddle out), 4 sets of wheels, 1 disk wheel, toolbox, crashbox, cooler, rubbermaid container full of food, and several duffel bags.

    I am totally confident that if we removed all of the pedals, that we could get at least one more bike in there.

    Wow, that's awesome!

    I showed the car to come coworkers, and they were totally enthralled with the various seat configurations. One exclaimed "It's like a Transformer car!" lol

    I like it! And I REALLY like that color! Is that like a metallic coral color, or is that just the photo?

    The picture is very close to the real color. It's called "blaze orange".

    it is beautiful. Enjoy it for many, many miles.
    I wish we had been able to sell our Mitsubishi. I wanted a FIT too. Instead I'm riding my bike and appreciating that my Honda Civic is considered the most economical car on the road. (especially since it's a 1991)

    I love my Fit, too! I can lift the rear seats, take off the front wheel of the bike and fit the bike in with no problem.

    Love the color!

    Uh oh. Don't tell MM_QFC that!

    I never thought of the Fit as a mini-Element.
    Hmmm...interesting thought.....

    We got our 2009 Fit Sport Monday. It's "Milano Red" - very pretty fire engine red. DH met me at Cartelligent, riding his bike from work and we just stuck the bike in the back without even taking the wheel off. Very cool!

    DH wants to get a small trailer for bikes and gear for when we go camping. Otherwise, we'll probably use a rear hitch rack for bikes as well.

    We went to the local Honda dealer last week and the guy was SO grumpy: "6 month wait minimum for 2009. You have to put $1000 down. It will be $2000 over MSRP." Nice sales pitch!!! I called Cartelligent and we had the exact car we wanted in less than a week. That's our second car from them and I won't go back to a dealer. They're only in CA, unfortunately.

    For true connoisseurs of cars and speed, I advise you to look at the reviews on the new Lamborghini, I almost went crazy with beauty and convenience. Now each model is better than the previous one, but this car always remains at its best. The speed is crazy at the same time. It is protected by all new technologies that can cope with all roads and slopes. Acceleration in a matter of seconds, and from this, there is trembling on the skin. Super easy!
