In Canada we have 3 Fit models to choose from (DX,LX,Sport). The LX comes with everything you need including AC, cruise, power, etc. and is $2200 less than the sport but does not have the sport look, sport stereo, or 15" wheels. Because I would be leasing the fit to use mostly for work I could live without the sport look and stereo but I am interested in the difference between the 14" and 15" wheels in terms of how the car handles. I have driven the LX but the dealer does not have a sport i can test. What differences is there in handling and ride quality is there between the two sizes? Does the 15" ride better over bumps or is it worse? Also, although the sport does look better i am concerned with reduced ground clearance as we do not have great roads here and we get lots of snow. How much ground clearance does the sport give up?
