I'm sure you did your research, so if you know it's good, then

Got 39.94 m.p.g. calculated , display 39.6 . This included 3 passengers and some cargo of about 30 lbs. for about 200 miles of the 333.8 miles at fillup of VALERO 87 w/ E10 , which was the previous fill . Use same pump for past / present fills . The gas gauge was a little under 1/4 of a tank . The tires are set at 35 p.s.i. and there were many steep hills on this tank . Very pleased . This is doing just as well as the 2010 3 door w/ power package and 4 speed auto that was traded in towards the FIT . The FIT is the 5 speed auto and weighs about 150 lbs. more than the 3 door . There's about 4,700 miles on it .

My wife drives a 2009 Honda Fit and I drive a 2008 Yaris sedan, both bought new and both 5 speeds! I like the Fit alot. Both are lowered, the Fit on Tein and the Yaris on M2 perfomance springs and both on Mini Cooper rims.
