I think something like a 1968 Lincoln or 1970 Cadillac could eat a Honda Fit. I mean that literally--breathe it in thru the air intake, sputter a bit, then exhaust out the less-crunchy parts in a swirly cloud of day-glo fumes.

Hell, if they could handle leaded gas, they could definitely handle that thing.

:laugh:

Unfortunately, you'd spend the same on gas in a week for the old caddy that you would on the fit in a year :p

I've heard a LOT of horror stories about volkswagen dealers screwing customers on cars that were broken out the door, and corporate HQ not giving a sh!t.

Volkswagen Polo is a great looking car that appears to be a very good design in most aspects, but VW has a long way to go to earn enough rep to be able to sell to the people who want reliable cars.

Haha, yeah right.

I'd rather have the Toyota Yaris. At least it's fresh. The Fit is Japan's table scraps from a few years ago

Why hello thar, my pro-Toyota friend.

Nice, but wtf on the paddle shifters. Paddle shift's not going to help when it's going to take forever like most automatics.
