I know you can't get the cruise on the base model, but from the honda site it appears you can get the USB in glove compartment. Is that so? Can you hook up a thumb drive via USB and control it on the stereo? Or is it only an Apple friendly appliance? |

Replying to: chas0215 (Jun 09, 2009 1:51 am) I of course don't have any more info on silver's deal since I do not know him/her, but we did buy a similar Fit from that same dealer (Anderson's, correct?) in October and paid $2,200 more. Oh well. The difference is the economy. When we bought ours the '09s had just come out and did not remain at dealers for more than two hours. Now when I drive by my nearest dealer (Redwood City Honda) I keep seeing the same Fits just sitting there. That being said it's a great car and perfect for our 18 year old daughter (who we bought it for). It now has about 4500 miles on it. Thanks to break in, the power has increased a fair amount and the ride has softened a bit, since it was new.

I think I did OK. I just bought a new 2009 Fit Sport Auto with Navi and VSA for invoice price ($18947). Here is the breakdown: $18947 vehicle price $25 electronic vehicle registration $151.65 doc fee $1195.23 illinois sales tax (6.25%) $143.43 city tax (.75%) $143 license and title $20605.31 out-the-door total It was a clean deal with no financing, no accessories, no extended warranty, etc. I've seen quite a few posts on here claiming that they got the Fit for thousands below invoice. However, you cannot compare 2 deals unless you know everything about every aspect of the deals. For example, maybe the price of the vehicle was $1000 below invoice, but if you bought an extended warranty for $1750, financed at 25% interest, overpaid for some accessories and let the dealer steal your trade-in, then you probably got ripped off. The dealers are geniuses when it comes to hiding the true costs from you but making you feel like you got a good deal. Anyway, we love the car and are very happy with it. We had considered waiting for a few months, but decided to go ahead and buy since they had what we wanted and agreed to a good price. I've been watching for a few months and no new Fits have come into the local dealer's inventory. I think Honda is running down the inventory here in the USA and diverting these vehicles to other markets where they are more popular. If gas hits 3 bucks per gallon, the Fits will start selling at a premium again like last summer (that is if you can find one). |
