Yeah but what car built in the last 20 years doesnt have one of those? They do that to make the body stronger.

I really miss not having a water temperature gauge. That stupid light is useless.
And I'd like an oil dipstick that's actually easily readable.
And I'd like my ashtray back. Don't smoke and don't allow anyone with me to smoke, but ashtrays were so handy for storing coins or stuffing store receipts into for temporary storage.

It's the very small things which I miss in the Fit.

Have always missed that my 2008 Fit Sport didn't come with a dome light.

You dont have one in the center of the roof? Or did you mean you wish you had one in the front as well?

Yes, I miss that the Fit didn't come with front dome or an extra set of lights near the rear view mirror that I could turn on and off at night and use for added light when need be.

No, we don't. I would never buy any car with a turbo. I keep my cars long term and small engines with a turbo will not have a long life.

Fine. How about a factory SI version with a two liter?

I'd be down with that!

As for something with a turbo, you could always just get a Fiesta ST

FIST prices have become inflated since they've been discontinued....and...I thought about it personally...but I'd rather have a more practical car that is a known good (to me) quantity with NA reliability.

The windshield wipers on my 2018 are pretty weak. The fast setting isn't much faster than the regular setting.

With an old, slow android phone or tablet which costs almost nothing, mounted somewhere, or if you have a Fit model that has android connectivity to the center console screen, all you need is an inexpensive OBD2 dongle (get one that shuts off automatically when the key is turned to off) and on the android phone you install Torque, the free light version. Then configure it to show water temperature meter. Or you can get a digital readout of temp in F or C. Also voltage gauge, and more, I forget what else..

1.) Leg room.
2.) A/C takes a while to get cold. (I live in Vegas)
3.) Speedo numbers end in zero instead of 5. (Most speed limits, at least here in the states end in 5).
4.) Who okayed the height of the armrest?

I don't find the seats that comfortable for long trips.
