Glad the manual is still an option. Not sure about the styling, but it'll grow on me.

Is the 1.5 the L15a/b/c??? If so, don't plan on any modding... both gen's of Honda Fit are untuneable, and therefore, worthless for performance gains.

Well good for them for FINALLY getting around to it. Back when I had those cars they had nothing, and I had money. Idiots.
