Thanks for the find! The Fit finds itself the first time running out of room...for all the accolades it's garnered thus far.

That's all true and we love ours. But I still never see any around out here. Very rare car in the country. People seem to love their trucks and SUVs.

LOL! I was visiting some friends and family in IL when I had my GD3 and they had no idea what it was.

Them: "What kind of car is that?"
Me: "A Fit."
Them: "A what?"
Me: "A Fit. Honda Fit."
Them: "Fit?"
Me: "Yeah. Check out the magic seats."
Them: "Whoa. That's really cool!"

As for the awards... was there every any doubt?

The ratings are a bit weird, The usual toyota camry and accord doesn't show up in any category. The midsize under $21k was a prius. Oh well.

On another note, I was shopping for a new insurance company and the Geico salesman assumed I mistyped my application and said a Hyundai. I said it's a Honda Fit. and he said he's never heard of it. If a car insurance salesman hasn't heard of it, it's going to take a while for the Fit to catch on.

I'm glad Fits fly under the radar, makes it more unique. I'm glad not everyone and their grandmother rolls around in one like the Civics.
