  My first Fit - 2008 Honda Fit
  By fetyka - July 10 - 11:50 pm

  Well, I really like this car. Runs smooth, very easy to get use to it. Even though, this is a small compact car, I still have the feeling of driving a very well built, very good quality vehicle. Before I purchased it I had visited other competitors in the same class and this car had definitely won the interior design contest for me. Gas mileage in the city is around 29/30, its not bad, but not very impressive either. I recommend this car to anyone who wants to save money on the long run, prefers good quality, not looking for something fancy and doesnt have a big family.

  Fabulous Fit - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Andy - July 10 - 12:53 pm

  Were thrilled with our Fit sport. It has delivered great gas mileage, 30MPG around town, 33-38 MPG highway. Its interior is well thought out and comfortable. For an entry level car, the interior materials and quality are superb. The exterior design is excellent. The Sport trim gives the car a better look versus the standard model. While its not a rocket, the engine has some pep and good torque. The hills in our area are no problem for motor. When the A/C is on, the small displacement of the engine robs some of the power. The handling is great for this little car. Its a firm ride, the lower profile tires dont help, but the trade off is you get crisp handling and grip. I like the steering too

  Fun, Practical, Great Value - 2008 Honda Fit
  By swift - July 9 - 4:29 pm

  We bought our Fit last September. Had to order because they were in short supply. It is a manual transmission, the only way to go in my opinion as it is very peppy and fun to drive. Have been getting up to 44 mpg in ideal conditions, but usually in the mid to upper 30s with a mix. Strictly town it has been under 30mpg at times. So, mpg varies widely depending on how you drive and what kind of traffic. The manual transmission is so fun to drive that mpg can suffer from that. (The best mpg is conservative driving.) It has an amazing amount of cargo space and that is what really sold us on this car. We keep the back seats folded down almost all of the time. We love this car!

  This car amazes me with all the space this car has to offer, I was looking for a wagon but I cant afford the price of VW Jetta, Passat, Audi and some other wagons on the market, the Honda fit is very useful, affordable & very well made, excellent handling, nice ride

  Unbelievable Value - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Connecticut Man - July 8 - 7:20 am

  Just got the car a month ago. Originally read that it would be too small for me. Im over 6 feet tall. This car is big enough for me and people taller than me with no problems. It has huge interior and cargo area. It performs like a sports car. Unlike other people reviewing this car, I have no problems with road noise at 80 mph, and can hear the radio just fine. It has a stiff suspension so on bumpy roads, these will transmit into the cockpit, but on most good roads the ride is quiet.

  Love it - 2008 Honda Fit
  By mec - July 7 - 6:00 pm

  Ive had my 2008 Sport Fit for 6 weeks. I purchased it for two reasons: fuel economy and the ability to park in those tiny San Francisco street spots. I recently took a road trip of about 500 miles. I was amazed that even with 2 teenagers, loaded with camping gear and driving w/ the A/C on I still managed 40 mpg. Amazing.

  Fit - Great Decision - 2008 Honda Fit
  By Linda - July 7 - 12:00 am

  My 2008 Fit handles smooth and swift yet sturdy and quiet. Very pleased at the quick acceleration for a small car. Surprised at the great amount of space inside for both front and rear passengers plus storage/hauling space. Great versatility and unique options for folding down the seat backs and magic rear seats. Great mileage: City 29-30 mpg, Highway 39-40 mpg.

  2008 Honda Fit - 2008 Honda Fit
  By CCurtis - July 6 - 9:08 pm

  This car has exceeded my expectations. It is fun to drive and great on gas mileage. (36 MPG on mainly rural and city driving.) It can fit four people comfortably and has lots of room for storage. It corners and hugs the road like a champ and I just took it on the freeway and it did great. It was actually hard to not go over the 70 MPH speed limit. The noise level was normal for this size of car and not much different then the Accord that I just had.

  Fitting the fit - 2008 Honda Fit
  By William Turk - July 6 - 3:03 pm

  The Honda fit brings something new to the world of compacts standards. Everything that was called an option before is now standard. Loads of airbags, ABS power windows, the works. Its all standard. Sure somethings could have been better, but for the most part, having standards doesnt make me ask the dealer to fetch a model that has all the features I want. Only drawback is that I dont see myself using this car for a cross country road trip although the loads of space and adjustable seats does suggest that it would be a good idea. Great for a daily commuter.
