Sadly, they only offered the rebate for cars which had a combined highway/city mileage of 6.5 L/100 km.
The 2007 Fits didn't even qualify. Honda rightly complained that some of its competitors which did qualify for a rebate, were missing some built-in safety features.
Mind you, I find Transport Canada's mileage estimates unrealistically optimistic. The USA's EPA revised their estimates last year to be more realistic.

Yeah, the eco rebate was enough to keep me from buying an AT. Losing the rebate would have nearly doubled the cost of going to an AT. Which is a shame because the Fit has an excellent AT, with five speeds (unheard of in this segment) and a taller top gear than the MT for more relaxed highway cruising (who needs 3000rpm for 100km/h?).
Though it was probably for the best because if I had gotten an AT model I would have had to bump up to the Sport model to get the paddle shifters.
