Anyone here interested in my 2008 base?

2008 Base with 140k miles. Clean undercarriage (no major rust issues). Located near Hudson, New York.

Not sure if listings are allowed here, but I really enjoy this forum and would love to give someone here a great deal on this car. It’s still got a lot of life left! I had to upgrade to a newer vehicle for work.

Looks professional to me.

Everything looks professional except the hubcaps. If you’ve got the base 08 like I do, let those black steelies shine .

Haha, it’s more about the modern cruise control. I need that radar assist now .

@Phoenix
I swapped my 2020 Mazda 3 AWD for a 2018 Fit 6MT. My biggest gripe with the Mazda was the radar cruise control I thought I wanted. It’s a cool idea, but in practice, every time someone cuts in, the car slows down, making more space for the next car to cut in. Drove me crazy. I’m glad to have regular cruise control again.

@Phoenix
That’s a valid complaint. I’m planning to get a Gen 2 next. That’ll complete my setup.

I’ve had every generation, and as far as I know, they didn’t add adaptive cruise control until 2018 (my 3rd gen is a 2017).

@Reeve
The 2009 model has cruise control, but I don’t think it’s adaptive.

@Phoenix
Yup, just more tech to break down later and cost a fortune to fix.

With your detailed description, decent photos, location, and fair price, I think this will sell quickly.

True, depending on how much more info you give, someone will probably be interested soon.

Thanks! A bit more info: I’ve done oil changes every 5–8k since I got it at 88k miles in 2020. New spark plugs and tires last fall, brakes and rotors last summer, and a muffler repair in December. The shop said it’s one of the cleanest Fits they’ve seen underneath. Also, yeah, my post history shows me hauling 500 lbs of wood in this thing a couple of times. :sweat_smile:

If I were in real estate, I’d rather my agent pull up in this than a luxury car. Feels more trustworthy.

I totally agree. Send your agent my info, and I’ll work out a special deal.

Is it manual?

Nope, it’s automatic.

Hey, I’m in Florida too! Let’s connect.

Is it stick? Oh, just saw it’s not. How much are you asking?

I’d offer a fair deal to a serious buyer from this forum. KBB says around $4500, but I’d take less for the right person.
