Honda love!

I missed out on this $900, 2008 Honda Fit 5-speed yesterday with 210k km = 130k miles.

Local car, sold in 4 hours (no surprise, at that price). The hatchback glass is broken and it has a check engine light on for the crank position sensor, according to the ad.

I would much rather drive this next winter than my irksome 75 MPG Metro.
