I think the 2008 Fit for North America will sport the following changes:

1. All-new 1.5-liter SOHC i-VTEC engine with direct fuel injection rated at 122 bhp (SAE 08/04 net) but with fuel efficiency more akin to the i-DSI engines.

2. Your choice of six-speed manual or CVT-7 automatic (North American market Fits will no longer use the 5AT automatic).

3. New instrument panel that will now include a true temperature gauge. Expect options for full navigation system and/or automatic climate control.

4. North American market cars will be built at Honda's new Greensburg, IN assembly line.

why exactly would they mount a 6speed to a 1.5L? and i doubt the creature comforts will see the light here in the U.S.
