Not a biker at all more of a 70 pound dog guy. By the way drove a fit at carmax with my wife after church good experience I will give you my pros and cons
2009 Fit sport auto
Pros- nice layout alot of room alot of visibility, good seating position, great layout
Cons low on power ( of course coming from a forester xt) wife wasn't fond of the loudness of the engine,

 

Well I know I might get a little hate on the forum but I ended up getting a nautical blue( dark blue) 08 scion XB for 12 grand with only 27,000 miles on it its not a fit but it fits my lifestyle. I love the car my wife loves it more so I may give it to her driver her peater to the ground and by another car for my self depends

 

Congrats, The next generation Xb is to be shown at the NYC Auto Show in 2013.

 

cool maybe in a coupleyears if it keeps its looks I can get one of those used maybe leaning more toward a 2010 lol

 

I like the 1st generation XB myself the second seem to get too heavy.

 

I prefer the Snd myself though the 1st is a classic the layout and the interior seems so much better in the 2nd Gens plus ( MORE POWAH though it could us more definitly no subaru forester xt loll I will miss that car )

 

I have not driven either one. I remember in the mid 2000s there was a magazine that specialized in modified subcompacts and the 1st generation xb was one of the most popular.

 

I am back guys looking to put the fit back on my list of cars I am searching for my wife took over the scion I had so my choices for a car now are a fit, kia soul, as well as some other cars.

 

Funny thread. You've got to stop going down those dead ends and just get the Fit!

I went straight from my manual Legacy GT wagon (don't pretend a Forester isn't a Legacy) to the Fit. The 80 pound Lab fits in the trunk just fine and if you disable the traction control it's great in the snow.
