I car that I want

I tested drove this remarkable car. It's has great room, good for traveling with the kids or family. Loving the way the car feels and smells is another bonus. I like knowing that the I car I will choose is going to be reliable, for me and my family.

Hatchbacks are the way to go!!!

I actually just posted my Honda Fit for sale and I will be sad to see it go. It's been an excellent vehicle for me. I can't say enough good things about it. The feature of having a hatchback is probably the best part. I love being able to fit things in the Fit that just wouldn't normally fit in a sedan. Or at least not without hassle. My best friend owns one as well and we always make the joke that everything always seems to fit! Pun intended.

Excellent car design

Have always enjoyed spacious mid to large cars, but the Fit really is lovely example of function and design. Pick-up good, gas mileage very good, enjoy simple dashboard. Inhave hatchback and am happy and surprised with space for baggage.

100K with no problems!

This car is very dependable and I get 37+ MPG. I have 100K now and expect to get 300K+. It is very solid when closing the doors and hood. The seats fold in many configurations that allow me to transport large items. I named this car "Joy" and she brings joy to all of my travels.

Very reliable

Honda never disappoints. Though this car is four years old, it's still in great condition, and could probably last at least to ten years old. There's plenty of space, and it doesn't get bad mileage.

Exactly what I needed

I need a small car with decent gas mileage that is also versatile when I need to carry equipment around. The Honda Fit is one of the most versatile cars ever made. My budget kept me from getting one of the newer CVT models, which means I did have to compromise some on gas mileage, but the 2013 is still a great car. I owned a 2009 previously, and while the improvements are not huge between the two, they are noticeable. I found this car in great shape at a great price, and could not be happier with my purchase.

Very economic.

Comfortable for long rides. Easy to park. Plenty of room to carry a lot. We garden, this car has catried everything we've needed. Bales of straw, upwards of 10 bags of mulch. Think of something...it fits.

Fifth Honda to own! Love my Honda Fit!

I purchased my 2013 Honda Fit automatic base model new . I had decided to scale down from a Ford minivan but wanted a vehicle with good storage capacity and visibility , the Fit offers this and more. Before installing exterior mounting racks I was able to put my small Kayak in the car and take off for the water. Front seats are comfortable for around town and short distance trips. The back split seats are well designed with "secret " compartments. I average 29 MPG in town and 31 on the Highway. The ride is a little rough, but for a compact car not too bad. Overall the Fit has been a winner. Now my 22 year old wants me to sell her mine so I can upgrade to the new model; we will see. ....

Basic vehicle for every day use.

Reliable & practical but I had a major problem. When it rained, the car would leak! It let in water via the rear doors & the rear carpet would get wet. I had Weathertech floor mats & didn't realize the carpet was wet until there was very heavy rain & water came up & sat on the mats. The carpet was covered in mould. I Googled, " Honda Fit rear floor water leak." There is plastic sheeting inside the door panels & they became unstuck. The dealership fixed it & replaced the carpet but when it rained again, it leaked again. They had to reglue the plastic sheeting again. This is a major design flaw. Also during the Takata airbag recall, American Honda paid for a 2016 Toyota Corolla rental. After driving this car for about forty days & then driving my Fit, the Toyota felt like a luxury car. Man the Fit is the bottom of the line! Also for the lady complaining about blind spots, go to an autoparts store & buy some blind spot mirrors.
