2015 Honda Fit - Toyota Yaris Forums

I remember reading an article about this several years ago, and, if I remember correctly, fitta is slang for the, um, female genitalia. Hence the name was changed, and the car is called the Jazz in Europe.

Anyway, I think the new Fit is a gorgeous car based on the photos. Kinda disappointing, however, to hear that it's being built in Mexico. I'm presuming production is being moved there due to the poor exchange rate of the Japanese Yen? It would be nice if Honda instead built the car in one of their plants here in Ohio, but I guess given the low price point of subcompacts, it wouldn't be price effective.
