Well overall I am VERY happy with this car. Last 5 vehicles were 2 Dodge Shelbys, 2 SUVs, and lastly my Acura RSX and I can say that the FIT offers something that I loved in each of those vehicles. I commute about 30 minutes one way in mixed driving in upstate NY. Only getting about 27 MPG which I'm a bit disappointed with since my RSX gave me 31 MPG right up until the day I traded it in at 108,000 miles. However, it has been very cold and snowy here and I have been using the heat/fan more than I normally would, so I am hoping my ave. MPG over a year will jump up quite a bit. I am hoping I just don't have the 1 Sport AT FIT that likes to eat gas as much as it does people and cargo.

The Honda Fit is a great car for the money. You get a little bit of everything. Great interior, fun to drive, great on gas and I believe it is called a "Fit" because you can fit everything in is it feels so roomy on the inside. You have got to check out this car!!! With gas prices now I can't tell you how many people stop me in parking lots and ask me about my fit. I love it!

I bought this car coming down from an '02 CR-V, and I must say I do not miss it. I have just as much space and functionality with MUCH better gas mileage and just as nice appointments. I love that I can fit (there's that word again...) my whole family in the car and still have space! I have taken my daughter (in a car seat), sister, her wheelchair, her service dog AND a cartload from Costco with two dog beds, and no one was cramped. I love having the MP3 jack and the sound is good. My one complaint is that the A/C just SUCKS the gas out of the car, as well as draining power. If you live in a hot climate, consider this carefully.

I've had my 2008 Sport Fit for 6 weeks. I purchased it for two reasons: fuel economy and the ability to park in those tiny San Francisco street spots. I recently took a road trip of about 500 miles. I was amazed that even with 2 teenagers, loaded with camping gear and driving w/ the A/C on; I still managed 40 mpg. Amazing.

The Honda Fit has been a great car so far. Not only do I average 32-33 miles per gallon (less on E10, unfortunately), the tight steering and quick shifter makes every drive enjoyable. With only 109 horsepower it's not a stoplight racer, but the 1.5 L mill is more than adequate for driving in the city and pulling the Fit's ~2600 lbs up to highway speeds. While it's no plush luxury car, the Fit's interior space belies its diminutive size, as four people can fit in the Fit in relative comfort. Then with a few clicks of the "magic seats" you can fill the car with furniture, boxes, etc.
