Sorry I miss spoke... TBW.... Back to my question now.. I'm sure Honda knows it sucks..The technology has been out for a few years now on the Fit.. Knowing Honda, I'm surprised they don't have a fix for it by now..The 2009 model had redesigned other problems Fit had...

When I first get into my GD3 at the dealership, the clutch feels so light that it feels like I'm stepping on air, or those arcade racing games with clutch like F355 challenge. Don't worry u will get use to how the DBW works & the timing on clutching in & out etc.

Stock clutch is made by AP(got the AP racing's "AP" on the clutch disc for sure)btw.....

Heel-toe is pretty much impossible...
Throttle is the ONE thing I hate about this car, although my girlfriend, who is just learning how to drive stick, absolutely loves it.

i find the fits clutch tougher to push in than a few cars ive drove that are manual(hasnt been many), but way harder to push in than my sisters civic, the first few times i push in the clutch on civics after driving the fit, its almost as if im kicking the floor it goes in so easily(until i get adjusted to pushin it in easier). 5.0 mustang 91 feels about the same as the fit(atleast on the one i drive).

i like it ;D
