New to me, but so far so good!
We did extensive research on several vehicles, and Honda Fit's ratings and reviews have always been good and only getting better. We recently purchased a certified pre-owned 2015 Honda Fit EX (also looked at Prius, Prius C, Civic, and Corolla). The EX has lots of safety features (which is good for insurance rates), is very comfortable inside, and drives very smooth. We were very surprised that, despite how small the car is, there is such an efficient use of space in the design, and fully-grown adults can sit comfortably in the backseat. I'm also very happy to have an "Eco-button", helping the car to achieve better gas mileage - I'm hoping to average at ~40mpg. Not bad for a non-hybrid! Honda's are famous for their reliability, and we're hoping to keep this car for many many years to come!

Fit is a fitting name
Everything fits in a Fit. Washers, dryers water heaters. Manual transmission averaged about 35 mpg, with a high of 52 mpg on one trip without using the air. Clutch was a little inconsistent, but worth the difference in cornering from an automatic.

My divorce present
Love my Fit! After all the bells and whistles it was over $22,000 but it is amazing on gas! I love the look of it! I've made it cozy on the inside as well! It's like a baby SUV! Service and staff at Oakville Honda are amazing! Twice I needed a boost and so fast!

Fit is a winner
40 mpg and fun to drive. People always comment favorably about the Mystic Yellow color. I tested Toyota and Nissan and neither offered the standard features on my EX model. I think the seats were better in the Nissan...more padding for my lanky 6'4" 210# frame. Would I buy it again. You betcha!

Disappointed Honda Fan
There is no alternate ignition key; only a push button start. I often cannot locate my keys in the car and worry I will drive away without them once the car starts. There is no way to open the trunk from the driver seat. There have been many recalls on parts (no cost, but inconvenience). My front side windows rattle. The radio is confusing to program. Just very disappointed. I ALWAYS keep a car until it dies but for the first time (I'm 61) I just sold this car ASAP.

Miracle car
Significant value for only $18K. Pros: Fun to drive, versatile cargo space, surprisingly big in rear seats, nice interior design, 40mpg (eco on always) with instant feedback, amazing rear camera plus right blind-spot camera, decent handling, several cup holders. Cons: touchscreen not user-friendly, in 2 years a few recalls already, engine a little bit noisy.

Best car in the price rage by far.
I've done a ridiculous amount research on this car, and recently bought one. I'm extremely happy with it. This is not an overly fun car to drive, and getting real power and speed out of it isn't the easiest (mine is the CVT), but that is not a priority for me. I really value good fuel economy, and convenient features which this has in spades. I'm getting excellent mpg, and the storage in this car is phenomenal. Heated seats and back up camera on the lower models makes it feel much more premium than the price would suggest. And the excellent resale value is reassuring. My last car was a 2004 honda civic sir, and I drove it for 13 years. I know that honda's reliability stock has fallen a bit recently, but I am still very confident that this car will be lasting a good, long time.

Engineered to Fail...
I have liked Honda's in the past but I think that their products are getting worse. We bought this vehicle brand new. At 39K miles the radiator decided to completely fail with no indication inside the vehicle. Within minutes the head gasket had blown and the vehicle was not derivable. Honda did not cover the repair because the vehicle warranty is only good until 36K miles. The radiator should not have failed this early, and at the very minimum the vehicle should have given the driver a warning that the car was overheating! DON'T BUY A NEW HONDA FIT!!!

Stunning Hatchback by Honda with Dashing Looks
A flexible interior, an efficient powertrain, and agreeable pricing make the Fit an easy recommendation. Its firm ride makes it fun to drive, while light steering makes it great for in-town driving?icing on the cake. The handy multiconfigurable interior offers more cargo room than the Fit?s size implies, too. The 130-hp 1.5-liter engine drives the front wheels through a six-speed manual or a CVT. Uplevel EX and EX-L models get a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system; navigation is optional.
