Test drove the fit today... AT Sport/Black

Let me just say that the interior fit and finish is amazing! I'm not familiar with the first gen but this definitely has to be better. The utilization of space is great and its a great driver oriented car. No wasted space!

As for the drive, no its not fast. But in my opinion, its more fun to drive a slow car fast. This car turns on a dime and thats the fun of it. I didn't really use the paddle shifters, but if I buy one, im getting a MT.

 

Awesome bro.
I agree, the interior fit and finish is top notch.

 

LIES! I still stand by word that the fit and finish is sloppy... 3 Fabrics on 1 seat!!!!!!!

 

Your just another one of those 2009 Fit haters(Im starting to not like the exterior again heh)
Dash boards, doors, AND SEATS are allll better.

 

i have to go to my dealer tommorrow to get something installed. Hopefully they have an '09 for me to look at in the showroom why i wait. I wanna see one in person.

 

sadly you are mistaken...

 

Well said Kyle ....im still waiting to test drive a M/T 09 Fit. Plus I wanna see how the Navi looks on them too, cause im not really liking the ones that dont come with the Navi.lol

 

i loved the look of the last gen too....but this one looks more aggressive in person, definitely. im gonna save up for one w/ nav

 

Look guys, the 1st gen Fit's fit and finish (say that 10 x fast) was already leaps and bounds better than any competition. Some mags even say "Acura grade", alluding to the gauge cluster treatment.

When I sat in the new one, even after seeing many photos of the interior prior to this, I was really impressed. Honda somehow improved the materials and design for relatively little premium over the 1st gen's list price. Now the "competition" must be throwing their hands up in the air.
