So when is the Fit going to get updated?

New Fit will debut in Tokyo in November. I like the idea of it sharing design cues from the urban concept.

Not surprised at all, I just wish they could squeeze a bit more HP out of that engine while still maintaining the excellent mileage, but you can't have everything.

Wow, that's good news!

I'm still glad to have the GE engine. I have reasonably strong confidence the new "Earth Dreams" engine in the GF model(???) will also be good, but like anything new, there's always a risk.
The GE engine is 100% solid, top to bottom a 300k mile engine, imo. To me, that's worth the 10% reduced fuel economy.

Very true. Just wonder why the EPA figures are way low for the Fit, but just a little off on most other cars

my punctuation sucks
i dont like everything honda does, but i am a huge honda nut, i got a honda emblem tattoo (15 yrs ago) and will never regret grtting it. that being said, i just wanna say a couple things.
1: i too am excited for a remodel, i bought my first "new" car in 2006 (a 2007 fit sport) until then i had always driven used cars (civics, crxs, a ford minivan (loved it) nissan truck, older fords (80's) sentra, etc. i only sold my 07 fit because a friend needed a car and loved my fit, the 2009 hadn't grown on me yet so i considered other cars (that lasted two days)
my 2010 fit i picked up in march of 2010 i have never regretted, i still after three years "look back" i love driving it every day, i have visited several new car "car shows" and have sat in many many newer and updated cars, and i like them all for the most part, but then in researching them a little more i don't see the resale value (even though i don't plan on selling mine i know if i had to i would loss far less than most others) and all the gadgets i consider kinda gimicky (sp), i suppose if i had a longer commute to work i might see them as i bigger asset, the new Accord is by far the best Accord Honda has ever made, and the earth dreams 2.4 with a cvt gets 36 MPG and thats in a "pretty good sized and heavy "sedan - imagine if that is understated, the whole reason the fit gets it's economy is because it has a small 1.5L, in ideal conditions (temp, and no head winds) i can get upwards of 42 MPG from salt lake city to los angeles AND BACK thats 1700 miles round trip - oh and honda has an "earth dreams" 1.5 Honda's Dreamy Future: New Engines, CVT for Fit, Pilot, and Accord - WOT on Motor Trend
2: the current body styling has done what honda wanted it to and grown on me big time, i loved my 2007, but look at my pics and wonder what i saw in it. it just seems this styling is so much more refined, so the next gen might take a little getting used to but it'll be hard for me to not want to upgrade after a year or so of it being out, who knows maybe i'll be in the market for a sports car after all i will be approaching my 50's very shortly
