How many people fit into the Fit??

i thought maybe you all might get a kick out of this:

if you read the earlier thread by our PR girl you saw that we did kind of a senior project, creating a small campaign for Honda on our campus (CalState Fullerton) to launch the Fit.
so we held a contest where students tried to squeeze as many people into the Fit as they could for cash prizes (remember Beetle-cramming in the 50s?).

plenty of footage (pics+movies) to see at
www.FITtheFIT.com

enjoy
regards,
-Sebastian!

hey-
it needs the Flash version 8 plugin. if you dont have it installed, it should show a link "get flash".
click it and follow instructions (remember to uncheck yahoo toolbar installation).
good luck!

That web site is very well designed, very easy to navigate and has good graphics.

I will still offer a litte constructive criticism. I could not find the vids of people in a Fit (at least not with a cursory glance). Not crazy about the "music". Your description of the paddle shifters says "available with manual transmission". They are really only available with the automatic transmission.

thanks for the feedback!
as for hte music, we didnt really have a choice. due to copyright I was only allowed to use tracks from the Fit promo CD.

sorry about confusion with the pics - they are in the upper right hand corner where that "1st Place" ribbon is located. (89 pics + 4 minute video from 27 people squeezing)
and, yes, the suspension got a good work out hehe also notice how they tear down the rear-view mirror inside

That was awesome! I was actually wondering how many people you could "Fit" comfortably and still be able to drive it - My best guess is 7, if you have two in the back part. I'm gonna fit 6 including myself to go to Ozzfest in July.
Hopefully, it won't scrape the ground!
