I wish the 2007 had come in that Blackberry Pearl color - I saw it at a dealer much after the fact. Mine is the Silver, and it's nice, but I love the "purple". Read More...

MAINTENANCE MINDER RIPOFF

Written by: pmedway on Apr 25, 2008 11:52 AM

I am in Canada and have a 1.5 year old fit bought October 2007. Only 20,000 kilometers and one service visit so far. I am a pretty conscientious person and read the manual pretty closely. My MM is on 5%. I am going on a trip so I called the dealer for service appointment. None available for a week. So, I asked "What is the wiggle room in going on the other side of 0%?? He said ...

What is "wrong" with these new subcompacts?

an interesting

Written by: nippononly on Apr 14, 2008 09:25 AM

editorial in Automotive News today mentions that sales of what they call their "budget class" - consisting of Aveo, Rio, Accent, Yaris, and ForTwo - were up a whopping 33% for the first quarter of the year. Way to go subcompacts!!! Unfortunately, AN classifies cars by starting price range, not by size, so the Fit gets thrown in with the larger compact cars (Cobalt, ... Read More...

Water leak at both rear seatbelt lugs

Written by: pfleggs on Apr 20, 2008 00:41 PM

I was performing a spring cleaning on my 2007 Fit and noticed that there is considerable dried salt brine around the rear seat belt lugs/bolts and a rivulet down to the floor. The bolts are easy to view if you lift the rear seats. The infiltration applies to both the left and the right seat belts which increases my suspicion there are more vehicles with this issue. ...

Two Years and Still in Love

Written by: vcarreras on Apr 20, 2008 07:33 AM

I purchased my 2007 Honda FIT Sport auto (storm silver) on 19 April 2006 from Sterling McCall Honda in Kingwood, Texas. I must say now with 18,600 trouble free miles that my love for this car just continues to grow. The engine is now fully broken in and runs smoother then ever before. My mileage averages between 31-32 city and 38-40 on the road. Worst has been 26 city..best ... Read More...

My Honda Fit Mileage Numbers

Written by: ferretman on Apr 09, 2008 05:53 PM

I've been keeping careful track of my Fit's mileage (actually, all expenses, but that's another topic) since I bought my Blaze Orange Metallic in July, 2007. I've been quite pleased with the numbers. For 2007 (which recall was only 6 month for the Fit), it averaged 35.75 MPG. For 2008 (to date), it has averaged 34.42 MPG. Highway miles are definitely better; I ... Read More...

One of those days when you feel good about your Fit purchase.

Written by: kagedude on Apr 04, 2008 05:02 PM

My 2007 Fit Sport manual is a nick below 60K miles, 2 years old and is due for the NY inspection. I figured I needed to replace my brakes so I stopped by the Honda dealership to pick up some brake pads... they were charging $71 for brake pads while their price online/shipped from the same store is only $53. What a rip! Luckily I didn't buy it. My family mechanic looked ... Read More...

But Americans Have Bigger Noses!

Written by: southpaw76 on Mar 31, 2008 04:40 PM

I just thought I'd throw my 2 cents in about the whole, "two foot front overhang" nonsense. I too was disappointed that our 2009 Honda Fit wouldn't match the JDM 2008 Honda Fit redesign exactly. I can see a group of Japanese engineers arguing that Americans (and gaijin in general) have bigger noses, so what's the big deal. Come on I can joke, I lived there for 4 years. ... Read More...

Information on the 2009 Fit is on Edmunds and on Autoblog

Written by: micweb on Mar 20, 2008 09:30 AM

Edmunds has a pretty detailed article on the 2009 Fit that that was published last fall, and still tops the Google search list (it is a good article). Now the most interesting question of all has been answered by Honda - when? - and it appears that the revised Fit will come out as part of Honda's normal 2009 lineup - neither early nor late. Of course with Honda some models ... Read More...
