Prices seem to be all over the place. I live south of Portland, Oregon. Don't want to get too specific but the dealer I pre-ordered a 09 Fit Sport AT with turned out to want $1,500 over MSRP. No way. I called another dealer and got a quote for $1,000 over MSRP. Finally, I found a very close by dealer who is selling at MSRP with no extras added on (stripes, etc.). Will now get my Fit in November instead of September because I changed dealers. But for $1,500 less - that is just fine.
 
You really do have to shop around.

Yes, you definitely have to shop around and be patient as I'm sure many dealerships will be in short supply for a little while and thus can afford to slap on those high add on fees.

Port of entry for the Honda Fit built in Japan is Portland, OR. And I am in Minneapolis.

$2000 over MSRP in east San Diego County, CA by brianflys

Test drove a black automatic '09 Fit Sport this afternoon at a dealer in east San Diego County, CA (Tipton Honda). This one was on the lot, unsold. The vehicle had a supplemental dealer sticker with mats, wheel locks, rear deck liner, plus a $2000 additional markup. Definite upgrade from the '08 I testdrove in early summer, but I can wait for the frenzy to pass. The dealer staff were polite when I said I was not interested at all in paying over MSRP. They said the best they could do is maybe $1K over right now. Gave my contact info and told them to call me when they had my model and color, with no markup or extra add-ons.
I guess if you are seriously hot to get a black auto Sport and are willing to pay a big premium to be the first on your block to have one, give them a call.

If I can afford to pay "Adjusted Market Values" for the hot new vehicle in the market, and I am willing to spend my money for what I want, why does that make me an idiot?

ADM is short for additional dealer markup which some dealers add to the MSRP for vehicles in short supply.

09 Fit price in Alaska by ak_fit
Sep 01, 2008 (7:39 am)

I test drove an 09 Fit Sport Auto MSRP 17,580. +$199 doc fee + $2000 additional dealer markup. The salesman was straighforward and stated they add this markup to most of thier models, basically because they have no competition in Alaska. I asked for roughly a bottom line on price though I was not interested in the one vehicle they had on the lot; already had too many dealer installed doodads. They offered $1250 off the $2k for that one, or $1k off for one coming in 2 weeks. We didn't make a deal. We liked the car a lot, drove great, quiet, looks good, rear seat very cool with new headrests. Any comments regarding negotiability of doc fee's?

If you don't pay any ADM I have a feeling you're gonna be in a long waiting line. $3k over is excessive, but $1k is about the best you can do for long time given the extreme popularity.

Hard Front Seat by sandman46

They have several Sport models at a local dealer but felt a hard bar down the center of the drivers seat in an '08 model...very uncomfortable actually. Do the '09's also have this uncomfortable front seat seat cushion? My Civic seat is so much more comfortable to my spine. My daughter thought the Fit was just o.k. Nice blue color though.
