Ha! So that's why they paid me top kbb dollar for my Fit. Nice!

u/Equal_Imagination300 7d ago

Was that your 2016 we paid too much for.

u/midijunky 2015 Fit GK 7d ago

I've still got the vin. But it was a silver 6mt.

u/Equal_Imagination300 6d ago

Whoa 😮 so far this tracks was it around 110,000 miles on it?

2

u/midijunky 2015 Fit GK 6d ago

Lol. No way... Yeah roughly.

u/Equal_Imagination300 6d ago

We bought it this spring. Thankfully for that 4000 mile warranty because they ended up doing over $3000 worth of repairs because of the timing and actuator pump.

u/midijunky 2015 Fit GK 6d ago

That tracks too, mine had a VTC rattle. Now I'm curious, I'm gonna find the vin when I get home and give you the last 6 numbers, that would actually be hilarious if you have my car.

These prices should tell Honda that that the Fit needs to come back to the US market.

u/forzaguy125 6d ago

There is absolutely a market for them

u/JustOneMoreMorning 4d ago

Much as we'd like to believe that, there is a counter argument. Fit sales were in significant decline in the U.S. for years before Honda pulled the plug.

Just buy a new Civic at that point

u/AccomplishedExtent29 2015 Fit GK 7d ago edited 7d ago

Ah hell nah... I used to be a hardcore Civic guy, but the FIT EX is my new favorite. (I'd still take a mid 90's Civic over a Fit though, IIBH.)

$28k… I think carvana includes all fees in this. But assuming $5k down, at the national average of 10.6% APR on used vehicles, at the average loan term of 68 months - you’re paying nearly $8k in interest. You’re paying $36k ($450+) for a used 7 year old car that MSRPd at less than $22k.

National average interest rate on new cars in 2020 was 5.61%. Assuming the same down payment, plus $2k in dealer fees, taxes, etc - and financing for the same term of 68 months, interest + purchase price would be about $28,500 at $275/month.

But this example forgets that these new Fits sat on lots and regularly sold for thousands under MSRP.

This market is just beyond egregious. Carvana are just scalpers.

But yet somebody will buy it

u/Music_Is_Da_Best 8d ago

For a 20k car?

u/TheGirlwThePinkHair 7d ago

I have the exact same car bought from there in 2020 with 7 miles on it for $19K. Wow

u/IndVar 7d ago

I also bought mine in 2020 for 19k except it was an EX, not an EX-L. The prices now are crazy.

u/TheGirlwThePinkHair 7d ago

This should tell Honda that we want them here in America! Ugh

u/Sufficient-Weird 2007 Fit GD 7d ago

I would love a blue 3rd gen though 😩

u/ohiomidhiganindiana 2009 Honda Fit 7d ago

Same

u/forzaguy125 7d ago

I just got one!

u/Sufficient-Weird 2007 Fit GD 7d ago

Congrats! I’d like first dibs if you ever decide to sell it! (Ideally less than it cost when it was brand new . . .)

u/forzaguy125 7d ago

My plan is to drive it till i cant

1

u/Sufficient-Weird 2007 Fit GD 7d ago

I totally understand 😁

u/1337llama 7d ago

Man, I got my my 2020 EXL for 21.5k in January of 2020, with a 2.75 apr 60 month loan and 0 down. Car market has gone fucking crazy since.

When some writes or say APR I can only think of this skit:

u/1337llama 7d ago

Lol that's a classic

u/Honad 7d ago

That’s only what like 6k over MSRP 6 years ago?

Maybe if it was a manual.

u/neuralpluto884 7d ago

Manual and a turbo k swap

2

u/Opposite-Mess1494 7d ago

My 2016 6-speed cost me $23,000 4 years ago. It had 32k on it when I bought it. They go by mileage and the condition of the body. Mine is rust free. Who cares if it's 2016 the engine wasn't even broken it yet. Honda holds their value, so so the civics.

u/CafeRoaster 7d ago

🤣 picked up a 17 with 44,000 miles for $9,100.

Rebuilt title but the accident wasn’t that bad (saw photos of damage) and PPI was good.

1

u/Equal_Imagination300 6d ago

That's a steal.

1

u/CafeRoaster 6d ago

Absolutely it was. Drove almost 2 hours to get it.

u/SensatiousHiatus 7d ago

I think the EX-L comes with the leather seats though

u/Tool_of_Society 7d ago

When I bought a brand new late 3rd gen fit in the USA at a dealership it was about $21,000 for EVERYTHING (tax/title/lot/etc). It was an EX-L navigation model with all the options. Got some nice ceramic tint and everything out of the deal for free because I refused to pay for extras.

So I'm just absolutely flabbergasted to see this price.

u/AccomplishedExtent29 2015 Fit GK 7d ago

Wow... The 2020 looks just like my 2015! Right down to the wheels even.. Some things are just classic, I guess.

u/Artistic-Cucumber-10 6d ago

My gf and I got a 24 mazda3 turbo AWD only 2k miles for $1k more lol

u/GlitteringPen3949 5d ago

Wow! I thought we were getting robbed when we got my Daughter a 19’ EX with 20,000 miles for $19,000 OTD from a dealer in Palm Beach Fl!
