New Fit

Just bought a 2012 Honda Fit Sport Auto. I'm loving it so far. Traded in a 2010 ToyotaCorollaS for the Fit.

I don't see many Fits around my area of North Jersey.

Welcome aboard JP. Now you could haul that recliner that you couldn't carry in your Corolla. Enjoy your new ride!

Welcome- how do you like the Fit compared to the Corolla? Fit has better cargo capacity- how about an mpg comparison?

You won't regret it! At least I don't. My '10 Corolla was complete junk (well, the interior materials were crap). Pathetic when the Fit cost less than the Corolla! That and the Fit is more fun to drive!

Right now it's hard to say on MPG. The fit is too new(500miles).
I was averaging about 35.5mpg with the Corolla and so far 34mpg with the Fit.

As far as the Fit compared to the Corolla no comparision. For me at least the Fit is a better all around car. Seems like it is put together better. Time will tell on that though. I was really disappointed in the quality of the Corolla.

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I'm really loving the Fit so far. Unbelievable how much "useful" room Honda put in this thing!!

I will post pictures soon. I'm debating about tinting the windows. The car is Alabaster Silver Metallic. In New Jersey we can only tint the windows behind the B pillar.

My last Corolla was a '98. Got totaled otherwise I'd probably still have it. Good car but the Fit is more fun to drive and definitely more versatile with the cargo space and different seat configurations.
