man If it had to be a honda you could've gotten a new SI put 18k down and finance 5k or gotten a used one with a couple thousand miles for like 20k your monthly payments would've been dirt cheap, but as long as you're happy with it[sm=smiley20.gif]

Man that really sucks that you had to sell it but the fit is a damn fun car for what it is and it gets great gas mileage.

Yeah, the best car overallin this (sub compact) category was the honda fit. I checked for mpg, safety, reliability, room for passengers and cargo(when needed), build quality, comfort, Ipod capable,and value per dollar (which is pretty much everything I stated). I tested all the little cars, including the american cobalt, focus, aveo, and G5. The2 that best fit this were the scion xd and the honda fit. I obviouslychose the fitfrom a cost stand point because they were ultimately the same car with differentcurb weights and sticker prices. I will not rice it out because I am not a ricer. I still love american muscle and willget another mustang oneday. Until then I will enjoy my gas sipper and metal cruising inthe fit. Sorry it wasn't american.

And yes, the fit is pretty fun being a stick and a damn good handling car. I have been able to take sharp turn in it and curvyoff ramps at high speeds without any feeling of not being safe or losing traction.

PS- I didn't want an SI due to how much they cost, their gas mileage running premium, and I literally am basically a ricer buying that and modding it for speed when it obviously has no where near the potential of a GT or mach 1 or f-body. I would rather save the extra money spent on an SI anyway for later down the road when I get back on the american muscle train .

Well I suggested the SI because it still makes about 32MPG even if its on premium and you might as well have fun while you wait to get another mustang. Modding Imports doesn't make a ricer, but stupid mods do, there are plenty of muscle car owners out there that are as ricers as some honda owners if not more. The SI is no GT or Mach but it has potential, it can be a real fun car with very little money.

I get in fights with my dad all the time. He screams and yells like a imature kid. I told him that he was acting like that and it helped the situation a little. Yes right a letter of apology. what it sounds like is that he saw you speeding and he thinks is you do not respect what you got. If you show your dad respect and show you care for what you own then it may help the situation.

A tad late on the advice, my friend, no joke, if I lived with in driving distance I would buy your car off you. I wish I could find a
Mach 1 around here with so few miles. Did that kid ever buy your car?

No, kid said he was approved for the loan but was having trouble allowing him to use it for a car out of state. I told him to give me the banks name and phone number and I will see if I could work something out, 2 weeks later and still no reply. Probably a hoax or some little kid screwing with me. I'm probably just gonna try and sell it locally, maybe take it to a few car shows.
