2009 Honda Fit Pros and Cons at TrueDelta: Owner Pros and Cons by hughbrower

Front seat room

Enough head room for a tall person in front seats. On the Civic, my head was bumping against the visor. However on the FIT the seat height is *not* adjustable, on the Civic it is.

Fuel economy

Salesman said that he has customers who get 40+ MPG on the Fit, also the current MPG display is always on so you see how you are doing.

Price or payments

It was under 20k, but more expensive than the similar models from other manufacturers.

Brand reputation & image

Had a Honda Accord prior and was pretty happy with the overall quality.

Feature availability

The ipod interface on the Sport model is pretty cool. Also liked the paddle shifting on the steering wheel. Having Cruise Control is also a plus.

Color choices

The colors are garish, I went with silver as it was the most neutral choice. The red was not too bad either.

Interior styling

No covered change holder. The covered storage is pretty minimal, everything is out in the open for people to see. Also the rear windows do not come tinted. Also I would have liked a time setting for the intermittent wipers.
