07 Fit
Just bought a 2007 Honda Fit with 60k miles on it. When i bought it the car had a few exterior parts on in which did not bother me at all. The dealer informed me that the car was used for racing. After i bought the car i noticed the car would jerk a little when stopped (in drive) at a light. Another thing i noticed about the engine was the car would rev to about 5500 rpms before shifting gears in first and second. The car is automatic. I noticed a huge difference in mpg in 1 hour of driving from the honda fit that my father has. Just concerned about why the car revs so high. i dont need to be racing the car at all. Just need some advice for a new honda freak. Thanks!

First off, welcome aboard!
That's an honest dealer, to admit the car had been raced.
Wonder if the ECU has been flashed / reprogrammed for performance. That would certainly explain a drop in mpg, esp if your engine is racing like that in 1st & 2nd.
