Price.
60/40 seats.

Nice exterior.
Interior is OK but cheap upholstery attracts lint and dog hair.
Lots of pep, good mileage, roomy, not a lot of road noise.
A fun drive.

Only a 30,000 mi warranty.
Wheel wells ice up quickly in winter.
Hate the seat fabric.
2008 Honda Fit Review:
I am concerned!!
At 23000 mi, brake rotors developed lumps which made braking rough. Took to dealership. They replaced them under warranty but made me buy new pads. Whatever happened to "bumper-to-bumper" coverage?? Also, broke down 2 times in one week...battery dropped dead at gas station and in friends driveway. Got new one under warranty, but damn, I bought this cuz it was a Honda. Now, I am thinking of selling it because it is a Honda.
Another 2200 miles and I will have no warranty...I am really concerned!!

2008 Honda Fit Review:
Stay away from the automatic and the Fit is eager to please. Handling is big fun and as long as you exercise restraint, fuel economy is great. Interior is very nice with great guages and instrument lighting. The only letdowns have been an underachieving stereo, horrible windshield wipers (cured with new-for-2008 wiper blades), and a dash creak. Overall, it's hard to beat.
