I'm really pleased with my car. I purchased it used in 2010 from a Honda dealership, re-certified with 38,000km. I used to have a 1995 Toyota Tercel, so I immediately noticed the increase in power and response of the Honda Fit. Very worth the extra cost in dimished fuel efficiency, I think. The other factor that contributes to my satisfaction with this car is the huge amount of interior space and versatility of putting the back seats up or down. Shortly after purchasing this car, I was able to transport an Ikea queen size bed frame by folding down the back seats and passenger seat. That easily saved me $50 in shipping/moving charges.
