Thumbs up Another 10 Best Winner!

Yep, the Fit is on the 10 best cars and trucks of the year list in the October issue of Popular Mechanics. "...it offers what no other car in its class can: the heritage of being a Honda" They loved everything about it... touting "Honda's hallmark quality and attention to detail-- all the controls move with acura-like precision."

“The Fit has the moves of a sports car and the utility of a mini SUV. The high-roof wagon body also looks good, in a tough, sport compact kind of way.” --Mike Allen


VALUE
Honda Fit
It may not have the lowest base price on the market. It may not have the highest EPA fuel economy ratings, either. But the Fit is close to the top in both. More important, it offers what no other car in its class can: the heritage of being a Honda. For a small, so-called B-Car, the Fit has what may be class-leading handling, ride, steering feel and brakes. It also has a 109-hp 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that's happy singing right up to its redline, and a five-speed manual gearbox with the short, precise throws of a sports car. Then, toss in the Fit's surprising interior adaptability with seats that flip, fold and offer more passenger and cargo carrying combinations than many minivans. Finally, Honda's hallmark quality and attention to detail--all the controls move with Acura-like precision--mean the sum of the parts makes the Fit seem much more than just another B-Car.
