If you're fans of Top Gear, last Sunday's episode was ridiculous. One highlight that got posted to YouTube is Clarkson's hilarious review of the Ford Fiesta, perhaps the Fit's only real competition. I'd be interested to drive one when they cross the pond in a few years.

Do NOT miss the insanely epic ending. If you've never heard of Top Gear, this is the kind of shenanigans they do all the time on the world's finest car show.

Hahah! That was awesome! I couldnt belive the ending lol, they are insane!
Car seemed pretty dang nice for a Ford(I hate all Amercian cars). Why cant we get that here?

 

we will get that here within the next year or two

 

LOL!! Reminds me of the scene from Blues Brothers. Good stuff!

 

Hahaha great vid!!! I love Top Gear

 

Hate to see what Top Gear would do and say about our Fit cars. Top Gear UK is the best, they have USA and Aussie versions as well, the UK version remains sacred.

Fifth Gear is garbage....a Top Gear wannabe.

 

They actually gave the Jazz a good spot. They had their mom's drive it around the track. That was a good episode. I forget who's but one of the mom's used a turn signal while going around on the track.

 

Europe has all the great cars and for every budget. They should have had Stig drive the moms around, now there is a show.

Will look for the Jazz episode.

Cheers.

Hey Guys,

I know this thread is a little old, but wanted to see if any of you were super pumped about the Top Gear S13 premiere tonight 8/7c!!! I'm super excited, check out the sneak peek looks AWESOME!!

 

^nope not really, already finished season 14......

 

That must be one fun little beast! Every, and I mean EVERY review raves about the steering, and the Fit/Jazz, is often described as boring and bland by comparison (outside of the US, where drivers are so numb from years of Explorers and CamCords that they're astounded by ANY road feel).

A friend over in Britain couldn't believe thatthe Fit is marketed as youthful and sporty. They are very stereotypical "old people's cars" over there, which applies to Honda overall (much like Buick or Mercury here). Remember the episode of Top Gear where they test the Element, and declare it the first cool Honda, but only after stopping by the old folks home and making sure they didn't like it.

 

^^^ Love that episode! That's also the same one where they play soccer with the Toyota Aygos haha...
