Canadians… so polite and optimistic…

Make them pay extra for the CVT on the EX-L and EX-L Navi and they think it's better.

Well, it seems not only in Canada they get climate control.

Model caming to Uruguay (south america) from the Mexico plant have climate control on the EX with CVT. What we don't get is (unlikely) VSA... this is non sense, comfort over security

Having said that, we get what we get and we can choose a manual transmission including an EX-L so I am happy.

No, we actually only voted for him that one time. The other time the other people we voted for voted for him and that's what gets you.

Nice that the L model gets a 6MT option.

Automatic climate control is nice until it fails. Then it is a nightmare. Kettering's law. I don't find manual controls all that difficult to use.

To each his own but I find that certain technologies are worth the risk that it will break. It's like power windows vs roller windows; sure power windows could fail and be an expensive repair but would you really rather have the old roll up kind just for the sake of reliability?

I'd take climate control in a heartbeat and if it wasn't crazy difficult, I'd mod my GD to have it. Just set it and forget it! I have a remote starter for winter and I'd be happy if when I started my car it was getting up to the perfect temp. Right now I just have to put the heat on and hope its good when I get in. It can get too hot real quickly, especially when wearing a big winter jacket.

Had the automatic climate control in my 2012 Civic Hybrid with Navi before I traded it in for 2015 Fit EX-L with Navi and I hated it. I like manual controls that doesn't have a mind of it's own. The temps never seems to be right in full automatic so I rather just leave it in manual. Less hassle that way.

LOL. Everybody says that, but I will definitely be relocating to a much colder climate while I own this thing. That's part of the reason I got the Fit, so I could pack up all my stuff and get decent gas mileage for a move. Growing up in Florida gives a warped sense of hot/cold. I'm used to being right on the verge of too hot, so if it's <70 degrees, I'm cold (want heated seats)

Plus the air here is like 90% water. In the morning when it's even sort of cool out, the car has so much condensation that you would think it rained. I have to remember to wipe of the side views otherwise they are useless, and I forget to do it a lot. And if it was ice, I imagine it would be a big PITA. (want heated mirrors)

Bush was better than gore, and Obama...a mistake for the world. Since I would not buy an EX, makes no difference to me. I got an LX with manual.

Why would anyone live in a place cold enough to need heated mirrors...or seats?

You're wrong in so many ways.

Even if Obama is/was wrong for the US (what president hasn't been in the eyes of someone?), Bush actually was wrong for the WORLD.

A President is not there for "The World". He is there for the US. Peace the old fashioned way...A B-52...works great
