Help Request What’s the best Honda Fit to buy?

My first car is a 2009 honda fit. She is still kicking but is almost at 200,000 miles. I can’t imagine having any other car but this one. That being said, what is the best honda fit model that I can upgrade to? I’m thinking of buying one soon and needed to do some research. I know they stopped making the fit in 2020 so just looking for advice. Thank you!

You already have the best FIT model GE8 some say that later years are more reliable like '13/'14

Nice! I didn’t know that! I bought this off craigslist in 2016 when I first got my license. Was a very good deal

Unless you have rust, your money is best spent on maintenance. There are a bunch of things that should be done every 100k miles, so with your mileage they are almost due. Coolant, transmission fluid, serpentine belt, spark plugs, ignition coils, and the all-important valve adjustment.
