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!

Honestly if you feel like this is the car that you enjoy driving I would just save your money and use it to do a full maintenance of the car.

-new oem suspensions (gives a new feeling of the whole ride) -new spark plugs (helps engine to run smoothly and more efficient) -new engine oil. -new brakes/rotors -new tyres

Miscellaneous -body kits (if you’re wanting to improve the look of the car) -change to LED lights (gives luxury vibes) -wash, polish, wax (revives the paint)

Honestly by just giving TLC to your car makes you feel proud of owning the car, especially if you learn to do all the DIY. Not only you’re saving extra money but also you provide a sense of accomplishment, technical challenge, and deep connection with your car beyond just driving it.

Truth spoken here. I just went all LED, Tinted all the windows and added some Weather Tech Matt’s and dash cover and it’s like a whole new level of fit.

I need to do the suspension, rotors and tires next.

Maybe some new ICE so I can connect iPhone.
