Honda Fit Highway Edition
I was browsing the Japanese Honda Fit site and came across this. They call it the Highway Edition.

Comes with stuff like HID, 'allergy free filter' (WTF?), and a few other goodies.
Best of all the Highway Edition RS in the MT comes with Honda Smart Key! I'm not sure why it's on only the MT...
Why don't we get the cool stuff in the States?
If anyone is overly curious about something on that link, I can translate to English.

Car companies put just enough goodies in the car to get a sale. The Fits seem to need none of those Highway goodies as they are selling well. I would have liked the highway edition really, better lighting and scent free interior. Drive by a slaughter house in these parts and the vents need to be secured, puts one off beef for a few days as well.

Lots more accessories in Japan. They have a sensor system that beeps when you get close to other cars. I guess with the huge parking spaces in the US, that's not necessary here...
Also, check out the 'Sports Neo' accessory package. Pretty cool.

I like to get that allergy filter too if available. I almost always use recycling mode for the air for fear of inhaling toxic fumes from car exhaust on the road. if the window fogs up i use A/C. If there's an allergy filter for incoming air then i can let hte vent set to passthrough mode rather than relying on a/c to dehumidify the air.

look at honda uk, one of the model's has a top refrigerated glove box, rain sensing wipers, etc, etc... also check honda.au I wished all those options came here to the US.

they install a couple circle sensors...may be about an inch or so. i would guess may be 4? on the bumper. when you get close to things, i believe the beep gets louder the closer you are(inside your car, not outside like a big truck backing up). they are OEM sold by honda dealerships in the usa. they are color matched. i remember them asking me if i wanted them installed when i got my fit. i declined as i am perfectly capable of parking any vehicle with out hitting things... ;P but if you need the extra assistance honda will install em for you ;P not sure on the price.

in Florida we have sunpass, i dont know how i could drive on the turnpike with out it.

I think you mean carbon monoxide.
#17
I dont' think carbon monoxide would enter the cabin. CO2 however can accumulate from our exhale. Although it would take a long time to accumulate significant amount of co2 to make you feel sleepy.

Carbon monoxide buildup is a long time known issue with cars.
