Road & Track - 5 to Drive: Inexpensive Fun
Sorry if this is a repeat post...
Road & Track Magazine - 5 to Drive: Inexpensive Fun (6/2009)
2009 Honda Fit Sport (MSRP $16,260)
In the minds of many, a 5-door (once upon a time known as "a wagon") can be efficient and/or practical...but not fun. But Honda's roomy little Fit runabout turns this notion on its ear. And thanks to a recent restyling, the Fit looks even more sporting with its more aggressive and pointy proboscis.
Though its 4-cylinder engine makes only 117 horsepower, the Fit has a peppy, rev-happy nature, crisp steering and a smooth-shifting 5-speed manual transmission. Even the suspension is tuned to have a sporty feel. The Sport model has some welcome additional features, including a body kit (with a roofline spoiler), sharp-looking 16-in. alloy wheels and a USB audio interface. And on the safety front, there are front and side airbags, along with active front head restraints that help minimize whiplash for the driver and front passenger in the event of a rear-end collision.
Five Reasons to Buy:
