I thoroughly researched the small car, wagon,hatchback market. Test drove many cars and bought my Fit over 10 days ago. I have put over 800 miles on it already and love it. Averaging 36.8mpg with a 50/50 mix on highway/city driving. Great, great, great car! Highly recommend!

No Regrets

I purchased my 2009 Fit about three weeks ago, coming from a 2003 Dodge Dakota 4x4. I thought I would regret getting rid of my truck, and now I wish I did it sooner. Not trying to be funny, but everything really does 'fit'. I have had it full of people, cargo, and dogs without a problem. As for snow, there is about 4 inches on the ground here today and I didn't get stuck once during my 45 mile commute (I don't even have snow tires yet). This truly is an amazing engineering feat. Why buy a Mini at twice the price?

Downsizing from an SUV

I thought I could never drive anything but an SUV. Been driving one since 1984. I just purchased my Fit in 1/09. I was surprised to find out I really do enjoy it. It's a little lower but other than that, I really don't miss all the bells and whistles, especially when I realized the gas mileage. It all evened out. I recommend this vehicle.

I have been looking at the Fit's since 2007 and this year I finally decided to commit. Initially I was going to get an '08 but they couldn't find the "tidewater blue metallic" I wanted so they offered to order me an '09. I was unsure of the body style if I would like the subtle changes but when seeing it in person, I was in love. I love how it drives, love how it handles, love all the space. It is a great car, the best car I've had so far and do not have any regrets. The biggest plus is the outstanding gas mileage when driving all highway, I average almost 39/40 miles.

Almost perfect

Well researched purchase,I considered the matrix but chose the fit due to better rear visibility and more fun features. Love this car: small but versatile, fuel efficient, affordable, lots of safety features. Main complaint is the bumpy ride: doesn't handle rough roads well, and downright bouncy (seems to oscillate off the ridges in the concrete) on certain stretches of well maintained freeway. At 5'1" I find the interior comfy, but my 6 ft friend feels cramped. Sun visor is inadequate for a short person when flipped to the side. Gas tank is small but mpg (I avg 33 for about 75% hwy driving) makes up for it. Handles snowy roads well, but I do worry I’ll get stuck with low clearance in front.
