  Update of Previous Review - 2009 Honda Fit
  By Warren H. - August 24 - 10:40 am

  Weve taken our son 400 miles each way to college this last week. The MPG was 28.5, ride was Okay at best (Im 61") the seats are not designed for the long haul. However, because we were trying to make time on our trip I was driving an average speed of 80 pushing 90 on occasion. THIS cars suspension is that of one much more expensive. Weaving in an out of traffic the handling was beeee U Teee full... It was almost as though the car wanted to be driven hard. On the downside. YOU CANNOT move a kid into a dorm in this car. No room at all for 4 passengers and cargo. 3 passengers maybe if you fold down the rear seat. The engine is buzzy at 80+ but you ignore it after a while. Still in Love. 0)

  2009 Fit Sport W/Nav - 2009 Honda Fit
  By Stacz - August 23 - 9:53 pm

  This was a replacement for my 99 Blazer (Cash/Clunkers), after 3 weeks I am happy with my Fit. It is much roomier on the inside then it appears from the outside. The ride is very comfortable. It handles well, even in the rain. I am not getting great mileage, but at 24 MPG it is more than double then that of my Blazer. I got the Sport because the base model was a little too bare bones. The added features remote entry, cruise control, etc are worth it. Warning: Do not lose your keys. I wanted an extra key and found it cost over $100 for just a key w/no remote, something do to w/programming the key. I got one for under $10, but it only opens the doors, it will not start the engine.

  I love my 2009 fit - 2009 Honda Fit
  By marebear2009 - August 23 - 1:48 pm

  I must say, after having my car almost a week that I love my Honda fit. We got it, because the car I had before was a 97 civic. We had a huge accident, which led us to finding a new car for me. I am an 18 year old daughter who is about to graduate out of high school as a senior and we were looking at the new and improved 09 fit. I love the way it handles as far as steering and controlling the car. Its color just screams at people. So Im sure they will see me this time. Its very peppy as far as the engine. Dont let that little 1.5 liter engine fool you. Not only that, but I am surrounded by airbags. So I feel extremely safe. I am so glad we found this car!

  A real fun to drive car. Very surefooted and corners flat, no body roll. The seats are comfortable and the controls are conveniently placed.

  Fun little car! - 2009 Honda Fit
  By Heather in Colorado - August 20 - 12:50 pm

  I live on the western slope of the Rockies and had to drive to Denver to get this car (inventory very limited at local dealership). Therefore, I had to drive back OVER the Rockies to get home - about 250 miles of hilly driving. While the Fit isnt going to win any drag races with its power, it handled Vail pass and hilly driving just fine. The paddle shifters were nice for downshifting on those long uphills and downhills (people who complain about the Fit shifting too often should practice using their lower gears on hills). The steering is great - nice and tight and smooth at highway speeds and very easy for slow-speed maneuvering. Its just a fun little car with lots of great features.

  Not a Fit to drive a Fit - 2009 Honda Fit
  By FredS - August 18 - 3:14 pm

  I have had the car a little over a month and it is outstanding. The only problems (if you want to call them that) is you can only get interior in black shows dirt. Does not have console. Does not come with cargo cover to keep prying eyes out. Other than that-it is great! A real thrill to drive, corners on a dime. Fuel usage is great, average 36.1 combo city and highway.

  2009 Base - 2009 Honda Fit
  By cruiserbruiser - August 16 - 5:07 pm

  Perhaps the best engineered mass production SC on the planet, however, it has its not for everyone. I wanted a small, safe, comfortable, fuel efficient, utility vehicle. The Fit fills the bill, but safety is a relative term and no amount of engineering can overcome the physics of mass X velocity. I wont be using the Fit on long trips w/ my grandchildren in the back until the large SUV is off the roads.

  Great Car!! - 2009 Honda Fit
  By Art - August 14 - 9:31 am

  I just own the car for about a week and I love the way it drives and handles. What a great idea to offer navigation on a car for less than 20K. The only problem is the suspension is a little stiff and does not ride as smooth as my daughters 2007 Corolla. No problems so far. For you do-it- yourselfers the oil filter is in the front, air filter is accessible but Honda does not tell you where the cabin filter is hiding. In the owners manual is say take it to the dealer. Not me I will find it eventually.

  Fit to drive - 2009 Honda Fit
  By ProfBAM - August 13 - 5:43 am

  We built a new home and went from 2.3 mi to 23 mi commute, about 18 miles on 2-lane state highway. After much research, I settled on the Fit to replace my 10 yr old F150 for the drive. After 2,500 miles, avg. 34.3 MPG (about 4 less than given by the trip odometer!). Handles well, ride is great but a little noisy, good cargo and passenger room, dash and controls are excellent. Smooth downshift and accelerate out of turns.
