saw my first FIT

I've never seen one on the road today and saw an S model in black and I was kind of shocked how good it looks. I currently have a ford f-150 and the gas is getting rediclous! I've got fleet hookup at local honda dealer don't know if I should go for a FIT or a Civic Si. FIT is really different from anything i'd ever drive but seems kinda cool.

Wow, thats the first one you have seen! If i had the choice between the Fit and the Si i would go Si no question. Dont get me wrong i LOVE my Fit, but the Si is a true performance car and is overall better then the Fit but it also costs more..I would test drive both before making a decision.

My issue with the Civic Si is that it requires premium fuel. In Canada, premium fuel costs 10 cents more per liter...or about 38 cents more per gallon.

Yes but dont forget that Forbes listed the Honda Fit is the 2nd best car as far as expense, cost to keep on the road and repairs! I test drove the SI and hated the way it handled and felt on the road. Heck, driving the Fit is as close as you can get to riding a Go Kart! I feel very much in control and it loves the road. All the extras just make it that much more fun to own. I love the regular unleaded gas it drinks. I can drive for 2 1/2 weeks without a fill up! I love driving to work each morning with all those "regular" cars, its like owning a one of kind ride! I washed and detailed my Fit last night and it was shining this morning. I came out from work today and someone had put their forehead on my drivers side window. I could just make out the side of their hand above the forehead mark. Have to go out a re-clean the windows this evening.LOL!

i havnt test driven either cars, going to do so tomorrow. I know the civic is faster but something about the damn fit keeps catching my eye. Gas is killing me going on road trips in the truck so i guess anything would be better to drive lol
