Pre-Possession:
Umm ... ok the story goes ...
According to the records from the dealership. The car was manufactured on July 7th (Japan time) ... so July 6th our time. When they mean manufactured ... the vehicle was completed and rolled off the assembly line July 6th.
By chance, we happened to be looking for a new vehicle on July 8th ... but not too expensive. And since the Honda Fit was the cheapest Honda available ... and it had the Honda name to back it up ... we decided to go non-domestic this time. Oddly ... that meant the car was still in Japan sitting on the docks waiting for the boat to set sail.
It finally arrived at our local Honda dealership July 26th. It had to go thru the Vancouver shipping port, thru customs, then get trucked over the hills, and finally to here.
Still factory sealed :?
Hmm ... that car looks familar :D
The specs sheet ... YES it's an Automatic ... but it does come with Paddle Shifting :) Umm ... is it me ... or does it seem hard to read the fine print? is this better?
The vehicle comes with no undercoating ... they say it's better to get the undercoating before you drive it off the lot. Yep ... undercoating costs extra :(
