Used 2008 Honda Fit Sport 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl 5A) Consumer Reviews
great car , bad mpg
I am electrician and service eastern n.c. I keep record of all gas used. In 3 mo 13,000 miles and 400 gal = 32.5 mpg that's 95% hwy. I have gotten in one tank 27 mpg to 43 mpg in another tank. Most tanks average 30-32 hwy driving on the flatside of Raleigh nc to nc coast. My best hwy mpg has been driving Raleigh nc west to winston- salem nc. I have had it to dealer 4 times and they say computer said everything is working properly. I got the car for the high mpg. gas prices are my enemy. I owed a 91 civic and got 37 mpg. Wish I still had it.
Over all a good car
First, going from a V6 to a 4 cyl engine is a huge adjustment. The blue back lit display is very easy to read. Nice large display. My biggest complaint is that the engine does not like to accelerate. Especially from a stop. Once it gets going it is ok. I recently moved and being able to fold down the back seats flat helped a lot in moving. Given the attention to safety that Honda gives, it is too bad that the ABS, traction control, and stability control are not standard features. The steering wheel does not telescope so I am having to reach and there is no center console. I have been doing mostly city driving in heavy traffic so the gas mileage is not what it was advertised to be.

Honda Fit Sport 2008 very reliable
I purchased my 2008 Honda Fit Sport in January 2008. I've had it 3 yrs now and never had a problem. Rides very quite, handles awesome and is quick. Love the style and runs well on gas. I only have 15,000 miles over the 3 yrs.
Good little car, but needs improvements
I bought this car right off the delivery truck...and, at first, absolutely loved it. However, after driving it for awhile, I have found some issues with it, but, all around, and for the price, it's a good little car.
It's a great Fit
We searched various brands and many styles of small cars. We were looking for something roomy inside yet small and very fuel efficient. The Honda Sports Fit fills and exceeds all our expectations. We have used three tanks of gas so far, 1st tank 28.9 mpg, 2nd tank 30.01 mpg, and 3rd tank 30.08 mpg in town, stop and go driving. The Fit is fun to drive. It corners great. The acceleration is faster than I expected from a small car. A perfect fit for my 6'2" size. We have received many compliments on the Fit from friends and strangers. I feel it is impossible to give too much praise for the Sport Fit. It is truly a perfect Fit for our needs.
