The 2011 Fit Sport is my wife's daily driver. She puts over 100 miles a day on this thing and it's never let us down in 300k miles. I do regular oil changes. The transmission still shifts flawlessly, all the electronics still work, and the gas mileage is great. I'm not sure how many thousands of $$ we've saved in gas and repair costs. This car has definitely been a win for our family!

Less than 3 years old and have already had to have valves adjusted and the heater blower motor replaced! Definitely reliability issues.

I was taken in by the reviews. I test drove it and fell in love. I thought it was the best car out there for me. Then I bought it. The a/c doesn't work, blows hot air. Honda assures me this is normal. After a 6 hour drive I'm sweating and my a/c is putting out 70 degree air. The headlights flicker at night. Honda says this is because the a/c is on and I should shut it off. Sure enough, if I turn the a/c off the lights stop flickering and the temperature of the car goes up to 80. I have a manual. I try to put it in reverse and have to double clutch it. Honda says that all manual transmissions do this. I replaced a 1990 Toyota Camry with this Fit that says otherwise.

Honda does not Fit

I followed Edmunds and Consumer Reports great ratings and bought a Honda Fit. BIG MISTAKE!! Worst Honda ever and would not buy again. 4 safety recalls and counting. Very harsh ride and "go-car" handling on interstate....very scary. Poor fit and finish compared to older Honda's. Tires are terrible and should be recalled. Should be Michelins. Bald tires at 25,000 miles but rotated every 7,000!! Body metal is suspect and very thin. Fascia trim falling off car. Transmission shifting poorly timed and paddle shifters are a JOKE. What more can I say....

I love my Honda Fit in every way except the comfort of the driver's seat. I've actually driven without the headrest in; that's how much it hurts my neck. Although I had intended to drive this car until it wore out, I am going to be selling it in the next couple of months and buying something less painful. BTW, I am 5'7.

I'm bias, this is the 8th Honda I have owned. While not as fun as the Del Sol or as economical as the late 80s models, it does everything well. It hauls almost as much as our 2010 Outback, using 1/3rd less gas. Consistently gets 37-38 mpg in mixed driving, tops 40 with consistent driving under 70 mph. The Fit is just plain easy & fun to drive. I opted for the Base to for the better gas mileage & ride. Outfitted with better tires & aftermarket rear sway it never lost its composure driven as when driven as hard as possible in performance driving school. My only complaints are road noise & the fact that my thighs get a little sore after 90 minutes behind the wheel - not good for distances

Cross-town mover or cross-country tripper!

This is hands-down the best combination commuter, small hauler, and road buddy I’ve ever had. Agile, capable, fuel efficient, and the cargo capacity for its overall size is borderline magical. We’re at 187K miles with no end in sight. The only thing I might rather have is a newer model with updated convenience & tech features. As a multi-tasking personal transport vehicle, though, this little trooper is timeless!

My husband bought the Honda Fit and kept it about a year before trading for a truck. It was great on gas and we liked the car the windsheild took a little getting used to. The seat were a little stiff but I wish now I had just taken up the payments on it and kept it. It was cute and zippy it's hard to go wrong with a Honda! Looking for a new model Honda now just hard to choose.
