The Honda FIT...
Its ugly, anyone else agree with me. After staring so long at the Yaris, the FIT, being so damn identicle to the Yaris spec's wise, i really dont like the way its designed. Its just plain ugly to me. I think they should have taken some design keys from there new civics and accords and incorporated them into the FIT. I love the looks of the new civics, their hot. Plus i think the FIT would look better as a 3-door rather then a 5-door IMO.

The FIT is old and outdated in comparison to the fit. If u were to compare say the current model corolla to the new CIVIC, it'd be a n easy choice --- the CIVIC hatch would win HANDS DOWN! It'll be interesting to see what Honda come up with to replace the Fit/Jazz in the future .... for now though, YARIS all the way!

I think that the fit is the awkwardly hot cousin of the aveo... but there's a lot of support available on that car check this out...
http://www.mugen-power.com/street/04fitmt/index.html Yes I know it's an older design, and yes I agree that the Yaris looks better.. but it'll be interesting to see how it all plays out in the long run.... |

It'll be interesting to see how many of each car you will see on the roads. I really think people are gunna gravitate more toward the yaris and not only because i like the yaris and this is a yaris forum, i think people will just like the yaris better. Plus, people who know nothing about cars, which is a lot of people, and are looking for a new economical hatch to purchase, will only be looking at the car and saying "oh that ones cute, i could see myself in that". And then buying soley because of how it looks and not buy the numbers and upgrades that we all on here look for. So in that regard i believe Toyota's gunna take this round.

yaris is by far the more appealing car, the only thing the fit has going for it over the yaris is the "magic seat" in the rear,
anyone who likes the styling of the fit over the yaris, probably has black velvet paint by numbers hanging in their living room (above the puke green shag carpet). what will be interesting is a few years down the road when the fit is re-designed, but until then, we will see way more yarii on the streets. |

i read somewhere... (if anyone can find similar things)
fit was honda's answer for gen 1 vitz in japan... and started to out sell vitz... so toyota came up with ist (scion xa) to fight back... so, there is a little rivalry there... now, vitz is in its 2nd gen... the yaris... and fit is still in 1st gen... well, it's interesting to see car rivalry like this... reminds me of evo vs sti... |

The xB is my first Toyota product. As far as styling, I think the Fit is more mainstream-looking than the Yaris. Most people I know like the Fit much better than the Yaris. My guess is Honda will sell more Fits than Toyota sells Yari. |

Looks a bit too much like a mini minivan to my eyes. But the seating arrangement with the fold-flat front passenger seat is pretty bitchin.

I think this Honda bashing is pointless, and juvenile. Hopefully you purchased your Yaris based on the good points of the Toyota, rather than any imagined shortcomings of the Honda.
