Its too bad this topic got hijacked from the first response the OP got.
The only real issue for highway and the MT Fit is if the extra noise/higher RPM of the engine running at highway speeds gets to be bothersome. Just forget all this talk about MPG because when its all said and done, its going to be close enough you won't even notice the monetary differences between the two. The noise, that might get old quick for some folks, but at least the 2012s should be better insulated.

To me whether the MT or AT gets better mpg doesn't concern me as I wanted a MT and I'll deal with whatever the mpg is for better or worse.

Good points. Having a 2012 MT Fit I don't have any issue with the noise level with the 3000+ RPM at freeway speeds and certainly not sweating the MPG vs an AT.
