  Honda Lover - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Thomas - August 3 - 9:53 am

  Since 1991 I have only driven Honda cars. I have never had any major repairs. This Fit measures up and surpasses my expectations. It is an incredible small car. I get 32 mpg in or out of traffic, virtually no road noise and the performance is equal to anything else I have driven.

  Fit is Fit for me - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Joe Fleming - August 2 - 3:28 pm

  This is the best fuel economy car that Honda has to offer besides the hybrid. I love everything about this car, i loved the economy and performance so much i traded in my 2007 ridgeline for the fit. I will never get rid of this car it will be passed down to my daughter for her first car and will purchase another Honda. All in all this was the best move Honda had made, well done.

  Too Much Fun - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Too Much Fun - August 2 - 10:40 am

  Comments after 5 weeks. GOOD - 32 to 35mpg with the AC running 100 deg Arizona, Paddle shifters on steering wheel lots of fun, Good sound system, Inside space and seat position options awesome, Good AC in hot weather, Good handling with tight steering. NOT SO GOOD - Road noise, rides a little rough, 10.8 gal tank at 300 miles need to head for a gas station. SUMMARY - Due to my long commute I downsized from a Explorer SUV and Im extremely happy....GT

  Big guy in a little car. - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Jason - August 1 - 9:45 am

  After reading many conflicting reviews about space for taller drivers I decided to test drive one to see if Id fit (sorry). To my surprise I had plenty of room, just as much leg room and lots more head room than my 97 Grand Prix. Im 66" and 280+ w/ size 14 feet. I had no problems whatsoever with the pedals being too close to me or each other (in both the manual and the auto). The steering wheel does not feel too far away to me, in my normal driving position, my arms are still slightly bent, but if I want to feel "racy" I can press my back into the seat and feel like Im driving a race car with my arms stretched out. Its got plenty of pep for a car of its class.

  Fun Car! - 2008 Honda Fit
  By GDavis - July 29 - 5:58 pm

  I got 42 mpg freeway from Phoenix, az to irvine, ca. City so far is about 27-28 mpg carrying 3 people most of that time. Fun to drive, lots of pep. Costco runs not a problem. So much room that the back seats dont need to be folded down. Picked up relative from the airport with luggage and could have still fit a 4th person in the car. Reasonably comfortable for the price point. This is a great choice to replace a large SUV because you can still "fit" lots of stuff and dont fee like youre giving anything up. Havent used my Jeep commander in weeks because this is so much fun to drive and has much better mpg than my Jeeps 12 mpg city. Not the cutest, but definitely the most practical!

  More fun than I expected - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Allison - July 24 - 5:16 pm

  I transitioned from a basic, bare-bones Toyota Echo to the 2008 Honda Fit--what a difference. MPG is less than I was used to, but this is much more of a car and well worth the slight decrease in mileage. This car is fun and solid to drive pickup is great, especially for a car with such little horsepower, and the car is very comfortable on long road trips. The sport model is worth the higher price, since those little luxuries all factor into the enjoyment of driving this car.

  Whats not to love? - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Lizabelle - July 21 - 10:36 am

  So I had a Prius on hold across town, to replace my pricey Lexus, which had been costing me $200 a month in gas. But $28K is a lot of money. So on impulse, I drove into the Honda lot and saw Fit looking at me. He was hot! Drove like a dream, the folding options make him one big origami machine (for my gardening/furniture/ kid stuff). Im getting over 30 MPG for $10K less than a Prius.

  Very Versatile - 2008 Honda Fit
  By sherri - July 14 - 6:01 pm

  I can carry passengers in comfort and almost anything I want. Its huge inside. I love to pull up to the door at Home Depot ready to load in a screen door and some 9 foot molding and see the look on everyones face! Its really fun too.

  2008 Fit Sport manual - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Amy - July 13 - 3:18 pm

  I love this car. It handles great and mileage is better than advertised. We get 34-41 mpg city. My husbands feet have trouble with the pedals. He says there is not enough room for his feet if he is wearing boots.
