I am also looking at a 2009 fit sport manual with navigation 1,866 miles for $17,000. Compared to a 2008 sport auto 1,900 miles for $14,700. Which is a better deal?

You cannot compare the 2008 and 2009 because the models are completely different. With the 09 overhaul everyone seems to agree that there were a lot of improvements. Since I had both model years I can tell you that cars drive very differently. The 09 is easier to be in for longer periods of time and is an overall more pleasant experience. I would never buy the navigation system. It looks cool but for one or two hundred dollars, you get a portable one like my GARMIN and have it for trips and other things. Good luck and perhaps there are other deals in addition to the two options you posted from other Honda dealerships..things change often. Good luck!

$16,293.00 2009 Honda FIT Sport (5AT) (includes destination) 556.50 Dealer fees ($469 doc fees & $87.50 dealer prep) 1,010.97 6% Cherokee County sales tax 42.00 Tag/ title/ lemon law $17,902.47 TOTAL I second earlier comments on the Navi unit. The problem I have is that I intend to keep any car for 8-10 years. My 1995 Legend (purchased in 98) goes bye bye for this new car. Anyway, it's frightening how much is integrated into the Navi Unit. If the display fails for some reason you're SOL. It can't be cheap to replace. I can buy the state of the art portable navi unit every few years for the next decade for the price of the upgrade. Not to mention some of the aftermarket ones are quite a bit better. The only thing I regret not getting the Navi was not having integrated satellite radio. If only a portable Navi also had XM or Sirius.

hi - so i've been scouring this board for hints, and have decided to just come out with my question. i'm looking for a barely used Honda Fit (a "cream puff", as i've learned). i have one '08 in mind at a dealer asking 15K "eprice". their dealership fee is $500, then there's the taxes and DMV fees. i have never bought a car before so am trying to do all the research i can to start negotiating this weekend. my main asset is that i can pay cash (check, rather) with no need to finance. the tips i've read say that your initial offer should be low but "in the ballpark." what does that mean??? if my max drive out price is, say 15K (which i'm not even sure the dealer would go for), do i need to start off at......13K? is that when they laugh and i walk away....and they don't reconsider? i know i'm also not supposed to get attached to this particular car. any tips greatly appreciated. i'm also dealing with the single woman going to the lot factor, so am trying to invoke all the nerves of steel i have at my disposal. difficult as this is also my first time, but i want to learn. thanks!!
