What do you guys think about the Honda Fit/Fit Sport. I was thinking about getting one in a few months when my brother takes my '99 Accord. Are they good cars? I like the Fit Sports syle
My main ride:
1999 Honda Accord EX
Other cars I drive often:
2003 Honda Accord EX
2006 Honda Civic LX

the only problem is that to be able to afford it (since im only in high school) my parents would be paying for half, and paying half my insurance. and they dont want me modding anything. Thats why im lookin for a good car that looks nice, and runs nice (and is cheap) without any modding necessary.

Amazing little vehicle if I say. I love how the back row of seats fold under the front seats in theory to create a HUGE cargo area. The manuals drive and shift like butter. and the best thing is that it has a WARRANTY!!!
I can't wait to get mine here after winter. No point to buy a car before winter just to crash it on ice or snow somehow.

For one... If you get the car, you will not be modding it ANYTIME soon. If you mod it, yourself, the warranty will go right out the window, depending what you install and such.scwhonda;72785 wrote:the only problem is that to be able to afford it (since im only in high school) my parents would be paying for half, and paying half my insurance. and they dont want me modding anything.

No point in buying a new car if you are going to void the warranty or unless you plan to make it a race car right out of the box after getting it.
Also, if you are looking for a faster car, look elsewhere. This car is fun and "zippy" but thats abot it. It handles pretty well as well, but this car has like 107 hp from the factory and that isn't to the wheels. This car is meant for ECONOMY, unless ou motor swap it. Built K20 anyone!?

Economy is really what i am looking for, good gas mileage and the ability to get me where i am going, but also look good.99BlackHatch;72787 wrote:For one...

my only issue with getting such a small car is that i play a cello which is a large instrument, but with all the folding that the seats do i doubt that would be a problem. i dont see why more people dont drive the Fit. it seems like a really nice car
