..Despite our run-in with the law, those canyon roads instantly proved that these B-cars offer confident braking in the heat of battle...none of these front-drive cars can put down adequate traction or power when exiting those same corners going uphill. The inside front wheel unweights, then spins and even hops...Of course, no owner will ever drive this type of car this way...

Where did you see this? I haven't recvd my hard copy, nor could I find it on the C&D website... I've been hoping they would do a comparo and I'm excited to read it.

The Fit's excellent quality interior, very flexible interior arrangements and decent handling has it all over its competitors. I would not be surprised that Toyota seriously looks at building "upscale" versions of the Yaris for the US market with more standard features installed and using the JDM Vitz's CVT automatic instead of the US market's four-speed conventional automatic so it can better compete against the Fit.
