  Great big little car - 2010 Honda Fit
  By UofAalum - August 14 - 7:45 am

  Traded a 2008 Altima 6-speed manual for the 5-speed manual base Fit (which was hard to find, but I only buy manuals). Amazing interior room for the exterior size. Great ride and handling. While it wouldnt win a drag race with the Altima, it is just as much fun to drive. Test drove the Sport with the paddle shifters, but the manual is much more responsive -- sure, theres some engine noise when you get up into the power range (>4K RPM), but its smooth as silk at all RPM and if you keep it in its power range its very responsive. Getting 31 mpg in town and up to 40 on the road at speeds of 60- 70. Above 70 mph the MPG drops fast as RPM go well above 3K. Great car!

  Far Better Than I Expected - 2010 Honda Fit
  By NewFitDriver - August 13 - 12:01 pm

  I bought a Fit because I was looking for a good commuting car (suburban & highway) that was good on gas. I considered hybrids but went with the Fit based on purchase price, features and MPG. The car is rated for something like 31 MPG, but I routinely get 36 highway and 37 - 38 suburban. Checked at fill-up, Im getting about 37 on average. If I watch the MPG gauge, I can average about 40 on back roads without the A/C and 39 with. Some reviewers criticize the performance, especially acceleration. I find it good with the 5-speed manual. Not a race car, certainly, but not bad. Electric power steering is sensitive and takes getting used to.

  Id Buy This Car Again - 2010 Honda Fit
  By ppla54321 - August 11 - 9:52 pm

  Ive had my Fit for 6 months, and have really enjoyed driving it and have had no problems with it. I do a combination of city/highway driving and average 36- 37 mpg overall. I have the Sport package which overall has a great look and is fun to drive. I did purchase floor mats, body side moldings, and window tint after market (see below re:improvements). As others have stated, the upholstery attracts fuzz, so I carry a lint roller in the car.

  More fun than a barrel of monkeys - 2010 Honda Fit
  By Izzy Cohen - August 7 - 9:42 pm

  Two weeks of ownership, and its a delight. Paid 18,455, and dealer threw in floor mats. Just returned from a 400 mile weekend in the Catskill Mts. , a test run, and it was flawless. Gas usage estimator said I got 32.5.mpg but my own before and after fill up calculations came to 34.8. Thats with lots of mountainous and hilly driving.

  By Bob Simonds - August 6 - 11:52 am

  As for the Honda Fit now that I have it its great I travel about 160 miles a day and have filed up twice since picking up my car I am averaging 33.7 MPG. The Fit is fun to drive and I expect having the car for a long time.

  Good commuter car - 2010 Honda Fit
  By Chipperdog - August 5 - 10:50 am

  I bought this car for its style and fuel economy. It has not disappointed. Great all around car with excellent fuel economy. My commute is rural highway driving with stops and starts. I have never gotten worse than 36 MPG even with the air on. My best is 38.8 MPG.

  I <3 my Fit - 2010 Honda Fit
  By Lit Teacher - August 2 - 1:33 pm

  For the price of this car, you cant find a better deal. We looked at Mazda 3 and Toyota Yaris when shopping, and the Honda Fit offered more for less, including the priceless reputation of reliability associated with Hondas. I was looking for an economical 4-door hatchback with plenty of room for me and my 3-yr-old, and the Fit fits the bill! Tons of interior space and between 28 and 35 mpg for me so far (no road trips yet). Also, I found the driver seat/positioning to be quite comfortable after simply adjusting the telescopic/tilt steering wheel - this coming from a female with chronic lower back pain.

  Poor Mpg - 2010 Honda Fit
  By Joan - July 30 - 6:13 pm

  I dont know what I am doing wrong but I cannot get more than 24-25 mpg no matter how I drive. This is frustrating. Otherwise love the way it drives, especially holds the road. I appreciate the lumbar support on drivers seat.

  The Gold Standard of Subcompacts - 2010 Honda Fit
  By Accordguy0325 - July 27 - 11:33 pm

  Having downsized from an Accord to a 2010 Fit Sport automatic and I wasnt sure what to expect at first. After a short time, I am pleasantly surprised by this car and amazed at how much room there is on the inside considering how small it is on the outside. The interior is very well put together with numerous storage areas and thoughtful touches. I find my Fit sport to be pretty comfortable for such a small car, with plenty of leg room and head room. The seats themselves are very supportive and well bolstered and the interior is versatile. The ride and handling is sporty while being comfortable overall. Power is good for the size of the Fit, and mpg is excellent! You cant go wrong !

  Good cheap car - 2010 Honda Fit
  By dhjohnso - July 19 - 12:31 pm

  I wanted a reliable 2nd car for low cost. I was willing to sacrifice "luxury" for lower cost. The FIT fills the bill.
