So I went out and bought a brand new fit, and I have to say its a pretty nice car...getting around 38 mpg at 25% city and 75% highway, and highway speeds of 65-70...it has ample power, and I recently fit 3 passengers on a lunch outing at work, one was 6'5" and the other is 6 foot. Getting to freeway speeds is easy, does need to be in a lower gear to climb steep hills like other four bangers, and the little 1.5 liter engine is a tad loud, but one of the most important things is:
