Seats are NOT a problem
I almost didn't buy my Fit based on reviewers complaining about the seats. I decided to chance it for a $4000 used car and I'm so glad I did. The seats are much more comfortable than my odyssey seats! I'm 5'1" and the seats feel like they were made just for me. I have a spinal fusion at L5-S1 and currently have a spondylolethesis at L4-L5. I commute 1hr one way for a 2hr commute and I have no problems whatsoever. My odyssey seats cause thigh cramping on long commutes but I've had no issues in my Fit. Love this little car!

Best small car!
Previously, I owned a Nissan sentra with which I was very happy for 20 yrs. (yes!). Finally decided it was time for a new car. Researched well. Drove the versa, yaris and fit. Loved the fit. Handled like a sports car and was very comfortable with many safety features not standard on the others. Interior is very thoughtfully designed, with many little 'holders' for various things.

Love our little Fit!
Didn't think we would like the Fit seeing as we are more SUV people and it was a little 4 cyl. This little fit has surprised us with it's good fuel mileage and it's spunk. It is a peppy car that is fun to drive. I love the back seats how they fold down and how the car doesn't feel cheap like some other cars. I have driven a 2016 Kia Soul, 2015 Chevy Equinox, 2015 Toyota Camry, & a 2015 Nissan Altima for rentals. All very different cars, but definitely like our Fit the best. It just feels better quality and is more fun to drive. The seats are more comfortable in the Fit as well. The only down side is that it could use more room, but it is meant to be a small car. Really though, compared to other small cars like it, it has the most room and cargo space. It has been very reliable for us and we are very pleased! I also appreciate that it's style and interior is still updated even being a 2009. The only thing we had to replace has been the ignition switch, so we have one key to open the doors and another to drive the car, but no biggie.

Bought several months ago
with 2000 miles on it. Have driven for 4000 miles. Very bumpy; plastic interior easy to scratch; good room in the back. Big complaint is that the floor on the driver's side is cheap plastic and the rug keeps running up into the gas pedal! Put down heavier mat but doesn't help. Feel I need to merge into freeway traffic very carefully because of lack of power. OK gas mileage but the reader lies for sure. Our Matrix does as well or better and it's a larger car with a better engine. Thinking about trading it in--big disappointment.
Love my Fit! Perfect for small families on a budget
We bought this car because we were looking for a newer model within our price range. We needed a car that would be reliable and could accommodate a child seat. We loved the look of the exterior of the Fit and its safety features. The car drives great, handles with a sporty ride. Seats are nothing fancy, but still comfy and durable. We can fit my son's car seat in if he is forward-facing, or rear-facing with myself in front of him. My husband is 6 ft 2" and cannot sit in front of my son's car seat when it is rear-facing and positioned behind the driver seat. The car seat cannot be put in the center seat.
