You'll be lucky camper to find and purchase a Fit. Most of the time, the Fit is always out of stock due to Honda's limited capacity to manufacture and ship that model to North America. On the other hand, the Civic is plentiful and Honda sales people always push that model to potential Fit buyers.

Yup, it's a chrysler product. I've had nothing but bad experiences with them.

But its infinatly more dependable than the Focus ranked at #7 ;)

I had a 04 Liberty V6 Limited 4WD. ~70k on it when I sold it in Febuary to get the Yaris and WRX. Drove it from Michigan to Quebec and back, Michigan to Baltimore 4 times and back, hauling trailers 2 of thoes times, all across Michigan hauling a broken DSM, and from Michigan to northern California hauling a trailer. Never did more than standard maintance. Never any problems.

I did get 13MPH in the city though...

They did that for used/new cars. They said you can get good deals on used, but could have maint. issues. If you look at the fit, they cover civic/fit. To me, 90s to early 00s corollas are boring

the honda fit is over rated...way too much for a sub compact..i did exhaustive comparing of many cars including yaris, fit, kia rio, ford focus...I picked the yaris as a no brainer..although i do like hondas build quality they grossly over charge and the styling cant hold a candle to the yaris...plus toyota has serious build quality and retain their value.

did i mention i love my yaris???
