Interesting, but looking at the xD, I much prefer my Fit. Not only does it look better but when I spec'd the xD out like my Fit it was 1k more.

If the new xB is any indication as to what the new xD will be like, then it'll grow by another 300 or 400 pounds. that weight gain offsets the bigger engine in the xD and kills driver fun time :(

i was so shocked when they stated a 600+ pound increase from the old xB to the new one. now it's in the range of some pretty hefty cars.

The xD has way lower mileage than even its predecessor. Why can't car makers keep the better mileage on small cars? I'll stick with the Fit, thanks! ;)

Not really when the new 2008 EPA ratings are considered for these cars. I added the fit just becuase......

Manual
2006 xA 27/34
2008 xD 27/33
08 Honda Fit 28/34

Automatic
2006 xA 27/35
2008 xD 26/32
08 Honda Fit 27/34 (33 for sport)

After test driving both cars I'd still rather get the fit =P
