Poll Test - Model Choices

Well... I guess the mods decided to move this poll from the "test" area to "live", so here it goes...

Mine will be the Sport Auto, in Vivid Blue.

I've always had the Storn Silver Sport with auto on deposit and the recent reviews about the fun factor of the paddle shifters just solidified it even more!

From a 3 km. test drive and the 200 I 've done in the last 24 hours, you Sport guys are going to be riding the range like comancheros! On the drive home I just could not keep it at 100K, it kept wanting to go. I have a big heavy foot and I find the el. throttle too light. I had a cramp in the instep of my leg trying to keep off the pedal. I slowed down twice just b4 I met a Mountie coming towards me. If I stay on my rural roads for the next week and don't go in to Wpg. I may not get a ticket.

I installed a 2nd. return spring on the carb on my Olds to give me better back pressure. I sure hope I can do something the same with this car.

Interesting how the people who want the base prefer the sportier tranny, and the people who want the sport prefer the automatic. Ironic.

Wow the sport w/ auto is getting more votes than Id expect. I keep forgetting fit is an econ car, and "exicting" manual fans probably won't look at it.

"Interesting how the people who want the base prefer the sportier tranny, and the people who want the sport prefer the automatic. Ironic."

Both groups actually want the same thing-- control over shifting. On the base, it's only available via the MT, and in the Sport, the paddle-AT allows shifting that's supposedly faster/easier than the MT, so they're all going for the fun of control over the tranny's shifting.

Sport manual, vivid blue. I gotta admit everything you hear about the auto on the Sport makes it very appealing.
