2007 Honda Fit Base review from North America
"Great bang for the buck commuter"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front brakes wore unevenly so that they pulsated.
The dealer replaced them under warranty.
The clutch pedal squeaks and the dealer was unable to stop it from doing so.
The right wiper makes noise.
General comments?
This car is a great all-arounder. The rear seats fold down flat for lots of storage capacity.
I average about 39 miles per gallon. I always run the crappiest gas I can find and the engine never so much as pinged once.
The Vtec 1.5 is great. It will pull away from a stop at 1000 RPM and pulls quite nicely up to the 5500 mark.
The standard transmission is the smoothest I have ever driven.
