here's a guess...changing to the FIT because of an addition to the family? anywho, the only reason i opted not to get the FIT was because 1. my family and friends don't like the way it looks, and 2. it's a Honda and i have something against Honda (thanks to Civics and Integs). but yeah, i was actually thinking about getting a FIT Sport before those two reasons.

I test drove both cars also... I liked both... but the thing that got me most about the FIT was knowing the gas tank was under the front seats...

Chris, I see your white Fit. If you kept your white Yaris, I bow to you for having both. If you didn't...

Hey to each his own, if the man wants a Fit, he shall have a Fit... I am sure Chris will tell us why when he is ready :)

Mine also. Plus the Yaris gets better MPG.

I bought my Yaris through Costco, $300 over invoice.

The Fit deal through Costco was for MSRP, that was the deal since there is a run on these cars and nobody has them in stock so they are selling for $2k over MSRP.

I have to say though that since getting it I'm very happy with my choice. I was expecting just transportation and instead I got a car that's very fun to drive.

Nice Quote!


I must say though that with a wife and 2 kids a Fit may have made more sense to me as well. I think my kids are bummed because they can't put their windows down like they could in my Tacoma Double Cab. A Yaris 5 door would be even better though.
