Anyone else have a strange obsession with an econobox that they can't explain? I'm in love with the Fit and I don't know why.

The current gen Fit is actually smaller and lighter than the EP3.

160 inches long vs 166, roughly 250lb lighter. Although the width for both is the same, and the EP3 is 3 inches shorter.

The RS is a riot, and they even made an absolute madman-spec version with the rear seats replaced by a race-bred V6.

That's right, MR V6 hatchback.

the ready access to newly built retro shitboxes would almost make being a third worlder tolerable for me.

Not worth much for information if they can't convey the information at all. If you're gonna do something, do it well.

I posted the video, and I have to agree it was too dark. It was still a good video overall so I posted it over some others, but I wish they had a better camera.

My F150 (king ranch) had problems and I had places I needed to go that day, sorta life/death. Dealer took it in and gave me a crazy good trade in. Rolled out with the cheapest car I could get. A brand new focus SE. $15,000 later with X pricing and I was on the road.

2 years later, 50,000 miles later and I can't get rid of it. I easily hit over 40mpg commuting in comfort. I have trucks provided to me by my employer I take home, but I've found it hard to part with this little car and I am not in a position to have more vehicles at home. I seriously have this attraction to econo cars now.

I own a toyota celica GT very similar to pic related, except it has no spoiler and the previous owner put some 16" audi wheels on it

I feel like people hate the 7th gen celica because they completely misunderstand its purpose. it's a spirited little econobox more than it is a true sports car, so of course it's gonna be slow and fwd. people also argue that it's "riced from the factory" but imo that only applies to the action package body kit, the regular one looks just fine

it's reliable, I'm never starving for gas, it has a fuckton of trunk space, repairs are cheap, and it takes corners outstandingly well for a fwd car. those five things have all saved my ass at some point and I'm very grateful

fuck I love this little shitbox so much, I'm never getting rid of it

>>15839326
the death of the second to last happy hatch
>>
>>15840114
If it ever dies, grab a hot hatch to replace it. Econo-usefullness and ever so slightly fun.
>>
>>15840844
I always liked the fwd Celicas. Every time I see one of these, it just makes me upset Honda didn't make new Civic Coupe into a liftback.

Body panels are stupid expensive though

I was watching a video and apparently those silver engine inlets are like £2,000 for a pair
>>
>>15843072
It looks like the 2016 may get some people be interested in modding it into a hatchback tho. I see some promise as I work with someone who has the latest coupe.
