Hey Derek,
You won't believe this but just a few weeks after my initial introduction and saying my 2002 SE is a keeper, I was made an offer I couldn't refuse. A military friend is getting shipped out to another location and he was looking for a buyer for his 2004 EX-L V6. The deal was such a good one ($5,400 for it) that I couldn't pass it up. So as of two days ago, I am now the proud owner of a 7th generation EX-L like yours. According to Edmunds, this V6 is only one mile per gallon thirstier than my straight 4 cylinder. I can live with that! I am loving the 240 horses from the V6. This feels just as good if not better than the 04 TSX I used to have.
I have a buyer for the SE coming to pick it up tomorrow. I'm selling it for $4,800 so for a net increase of just $600 I was able to leap two years, 1 generation and two cylinders ahead. Not a bad deal!
P.S. The Fit sold almost immediately after we put it up on Craigslist.

On the highway, the V6 is pretty fuel efficient, given its size. I do notice a slight difference around town, however. Still, it's a great engine and a blast when you want to drive with some 'zip.'
How many miles does it have?

Congratulations, Ollie! It sounds like a great deal. Did you get a four-door or a coupe (mine is a coupe)? You'll definitely have to post some pics when you get a chance.
