"But the modern car that best embodies the Slow Car ethic is the Honda Fit, a tossable runabout with a tiny but willing engine and an agile chassis enlivened by feel-good steering. Of course, we'd expect nothing less from a company whose CRX was a perennial Slow Car standout."

A great read:

Very good article...
Completely agree!
Reason I went from a 260hp CL-S to a 120hp Fit that drives like its on rails.

 

repost, sorry man

 

Thanks for posting, looked for this article earlier but couldn't find it, so thanks.

 

Well, I take some exception to the CRX being slow. I used to bait BMWs with my Si.
Actually, I couldn't EVER drive the CRX slowly; you just had to do crazy, goofy stuff because it was so agile and tossable, not to mention a great runner if you kept it on the boil.
I find it easier to drive the Fit moderately, but then I'm 25 years older...naaah, that couldn't have anything to do with it.
