Mainly that it is a hatchback. It is roomy and relatively efficient (though it could be a little better). It is affordable, and handles well (according to reviews - I have not drive one yet)

1) the big "H"
2) small and efficient, like the good ol days
3) luxiourous ride and interior. can't ask for more. I'm actuall glad the sport doesnt' come w/ the subwoofer, so it leaves that open so we can choose.

Physically small on the outside with so much to be proud of, inside and out.

Fuel Efficiency
Looks super cool for what it is
Reliable and still fairly fun (for what it is) Honda powerplant
Paddle Shifters on 5AT
Lots of interior space
Small size, park anywhere
Extensive aftermarket support
Excellent handling characteristics for a subcompact

Not to mention tons of cool features for a $15k car (speed sensitive volume, aux out, nice gauges, maintenance minder, magic seats, loads of other stuff I can't remember).

Nice JDM add-ons available (Tails, mirrors, blah blah blah, maybe the front end for the truly dedicated).

It's just a lot of car for the price, and it's exactly what a lot of urban and suburban people need.

I have only had it one day. This thing is a ball to drive very peppy for such a small motor, handles as good as all the reviews say. I drove mine 174 miles from the dealer and got 36mpg running between 70 and 85 all the way. the stereo is very nice for a stock unit and the cruise works very well. Theres more I just don't have the time to wright it all down.

What's not to love!

I have to admit/confess that after buying model leftovers, it's kind of fun to drive around in something different from everything else on the road. I love doing demos for friends -- popping the hood, flipping up the Magic Seats, and taking people for a spin. When those big SUVs try to bully me on I-95, I startle them with quick acceleration and watch them in my rear view mirror. The Fit can go! I stopped by my mechanic's shop and let him test drive it. When I dropped my car pool buddy off at his transmission shop, he called the guys out to have a look at my Fit. An older couple crossed the parking lot before getting in their CR-V to have a look -- they hadn't heard anything about the Fit. I have fun calculating my mileage after I fill up at the pump (even though the price at the pump is horrendous, I'm surrounded by big vehicles with owners groaning and whimpering when they rack up a big fillup). A few of my co-workers who are planning to downsize have taken a close look at my Fit. Ordinarily I'm not at the head of the pack when the newest and greatest comes out.

Speaking of that (segue), I can tell some of the FitFreaks are computer savvy. My computer is ancient and I need to replace it. Is the Dell sale (40% off) worth taking advantage of? Also, who is happy with their internet service? All I need is good internet response time (using dialup on this computer is like watching paint dry), photo storage and burn for CDs -- including music.
