FS: 2011 Honda Fit Sport
#1
Hey guys. For those of you who don't know me, I graduated from JMU in 2002 - honorary OG, former NASA grid worker, etc. I'm selling my Fit (yes, I realize that trying to sell an almost new car isn't exactly the way to go) and wanted to offer her up to MM first, before she hit the general marketplace.

While I realize what this car isn't, know this. It's a Honda, so it will run forever. It gets fantastic gas milage, it's not a complicated machine, it's actually pretty fun to drive, and would be a great commuter car or any kind of daily driver. I want to find a good home for her, and want to get the sale over before the end of the year.

Photos dont work but I can attest these are fun vehicles with a 5 speed manual. I used to blast around in one all the time in college, its as fun as a 99-00 civic Si, plus got great gas mileage and fit a tremendous amount of crap!

Never drove an automatic one, but yeah with the 5 speed it was actually a bit of a hoot in the corners. With the limited horsepower im sure it wouldnt be quite an si going up a mountain, but just as good if not better than the Si down a mountain.

Thanks for the comments, everyone. If you know of anyone looking, please pass this along - I'll honor the MM friends and family price for anyone who has a connection to one of you guys!

It really is a fun car. It's no turbo charged beast, but it's light and agile.

Does a decent holdback too.
