The 2007 Honda Fit is a geat car to drive - peppy, responsive, sure footed, and fun. The ride was much smoother than some of the other small cars we tried out. Yet it was also very econimical. We averaged about 6.5L/100km in the summer and 8.5L/100km in the winter and had no mechanical troubles with the car in the 6 years we owned it. There were a number of recalls, though, for minor issues. Though small, the car was quite versitile, with a hatch that easily held our weekly grocercies or double stroller. It also had the magic seats, which allowed me to bring home some 4' cedars in it no problem. My chief complaint was a short 5th gear, which made for a buzzy 3000 rpm at 100 km/h.
