When the first Fits started hitting the road I was happy to see Honda start selling this smaller, Japanese-city styling car in America. I am a single male with a dog and I don't need these huge gas guzzling cars that everyone is driving! The fits looks great, inside there is much more room than it looks, from the drivers seat you would think you were driving an Acura. Top quality materials everywhere, instrument cluster with big, bright easy to see instrumentation, great stereo with cool blue illuminated face, plays my mp3 player, lots of storage space, lots of Glass for a big view out, great leather wrapped steering wheel. And the automatic has paddle shifters on the steering wheel!

We bought the Fit last fall as a commuter vehicle and have since used it almost exclusively. With gas >$4 we now leave our Sienna in the garage except for trips with more than 4 of us. The Fit just took our family of 4 (children 6 and 9) and all our gear on a 2 week 4300 mile trip west. It handled the mountains and 75 mph on the interstate just fine and 32 to 41 mpg to boot. The lower economy occurred at 75 mph into a strong head wind. This car drives bigger than it is, handles well, and the paddle shifters are fun when pushing the car on curvy roads. I'm 6'2" and I was comfortable for all 4300 miles. Sure enjoyed the mp3's across the many miles of fields and cows...

I love this car. It handles great and mileage is better than advertised. We get 34-41 mpg city. My husbands feet have trouble with the pedals. He says there is not enough room for his feet if he is wearing boots.

Sold my Tacoma when the gas prices were high and bought this car because it was so well rated. I am sorry to say that after 5000 miles, I have not been able to achieve more than 30 MPG and the last 2 tanks gave me only 27 MPH... not enough to justify the loss I took trading in my 20 MPG truck.

I can carry passengers in comfort and almost anything I want. It's huge inside. I love to pull up to the door at Home Depot ready to load in a screen door and some 9 foot molding and see the look on everyone's face! It's really fun too.
