Another rating that makes me feel like I made the right choice when I brought my Fit.

When you look at our Fits and compare to similar cars the Fit looks more upscale (exterior) (may explain why so many people compare it to cars classified at the next level rather then in the same class), fun to drive, reliable, and useful in hauling stuff. Hard to find anything in the same class that could beat the Fit on all levels.

As of this moment, the Fit is the only "Honda" in the Honda vehicle line up. Although the rest of their cars are very nice, they're the same boring, bloated boats you get from just about every other manufacturer (maybe a bit of arugument for the Si). I remember most of the Honda line up was fun, exciting and practical--which is what Honda stood for. Now, only the Fit fits that description, IMO. Gone are the good ol'days of the CRX, Integra, Prelude, but thank goodness the Fit is still here.

This is one of the exact reasons why I bought the Fit instead of a Civic. The only other option for me was an FG Si but I wanted 0 miles for once in my life Dealer was pushing the Civic and Accord but they might as well have been Camrys to me.

Also, cargo room.

I knew from the start when my family and I looked at one in November that this is the one! I didn't even test drive it, just followed my heart and now own a 2013 Polished Metal Metallic A/T!! So versatile and fun and the second brand new car that we have in less than a decade!

If they took another Honda off there, corporate would go Suzuki on its ass.
