It’s difficult to get the proportions right in a small, tall hatchback like the 2010 Honda Fit. Judging by the responses of a wide range of reviewers, Honda nailed the details, but the Fit’s overall effect can leave people hot or cold. Reviews read by TheCarConnection.com show...

Other Choices:

The entry price is a bit higher for the 2010 Honda Fit compared to most of its peers in the market, but a lot of other factors might make the Fit cheaper in the long run. Consider its top crash-test ratings and good reputation for reliability and it will likely cost less to own and maintain over many years. Next to most other hatchback models its size, it feels much more substantial from behind the wheel. The automatic transmission in the Fit has five speeds, while most others still have four in this price class, which helps bring good performance and fuel economy, along with relaxed highway cruising. Anti-lock brakes, which are standard on the Fit, are optional or not available on many of its competitors. Among these competitors, all but the Rio5 have a softer ride than the Fit, but it doesn't necessarily bring more ride comfort; the Rio5 handles quite well but isn't as comfortable at high speeds, and the Versa rides and handles like a larger, heavier car, lacking the Fit's nimble feel. And none of these models matches the Fit's cargo or backseat space. Perhaps the most direct rival to the Fit is the xD, but the Scion has neither the high-quality feel nor the jaw-dropping space efficiency of the Fit.

    I purchased a 2009 Honda Fit Sport and had basic performance modifications done using Mugen parts(Honda's in-house race car division,ie.Formula-1).The 117hp stock engine now delivers 150hp.On a small car like the Fit,air induction and a sports exhaust along with Mugen XJ 16" wheels make a major improvement.I use Mobile 1 extended performance synthetic oil with a K&N oil filter and premium gas.The chip has been modified for performance driving.Simple fixes make this car really quick and fun to drive.I also am purchasing a 2010 Camero SS for my fiance.She wants to race me...said no thanks my happiness! Love you site!! ELS
