On July 6, Honda introduced two new Fit special models: the Fit Comfort Edition, and Fit HDD Navi Comfort Edition.

Both cars get the following popular options included as standard equipment:

* Automatic A/C with cabin filtration
* Keyless entry
* Anti-theft
* Mirror-mounted turn-signal indicators
* Power folding mirrors
* Privacy glass
* Mini antenna

The Fit HDD Navi Comfort Edition adds Honda's 30GB hard drive navigation system, which features a 7-inch screen, TV/AM-FM/CD/DVD functionality, and 3D navigation graphics. Bluetooth and steering wheel controls for the radio abd voice-activated feaures are also included in the HDD Navi pack.
Power comes from a 1.3L 86 hp four cylinder connected to a CVT. Buyers can choose either 2WD and AWD for both Comfort Edition trim levels.

Prices range from ¥1,281,000 to ¥1,470,000 ( ~$10-12K USD) for the Fit Comfort Edition, and ¥1,491,000 to ¥1,680,000 (~$14 - 16K USD) for the HDD Navi Comfort edition.

damn you honda ...

damn you...

looks like they slapped together the last gen of fits in japan to left-hand drive and ship em to us, so that they can launch this thing in their hometown

that explains everything! its gotta be true...

the only thing i really wanted in my fit was a NAV



car modders: is it do-able? pimp our rides with the NAV parts?

 

Love and want that Navi.

 

^^^ i agree

 

gauge cluster looks nice!

 

hmm looks like the entire bottom of the front is a gigantic cubby hole

 

That is a NICE package! NAV and power folding mirrors would rock.

 

all that but no rims?? damn hahaha btw I always thought we have hte carbin filter for our AC

 

i would like the nav

 

Mirrors fold?

Do our US ones have folding mirrors? I haven't checked that one.

Not that I'm planning to whack into a pole or something, It's just nice to have.

 

Power folding mirrors, LED tail lights, turn indicators in the mirrors are all now standard equipment in all Jazz models sold in Australia from the 1.3L DSi GLi to the 1.5L VTEC VTiS. Oh and the price has come down around $2,000 now that they are sourcing from Thailand instead of Japan. Free Trade is a wonderful thing.

 

Where is the delightful, easy to use stereo? Hopefully not buried 3 menus deep in some complex touch screen BMW i-drive like nightmare.

 

Our UK Jazz/Fit (someone tell me what I should refer to it as so I don't cause any confusion!) looks like that interior but with the stereo fitted (the easy to use one!) but we can buy a Honda Access part that converts the dash to that 2DIN panel but I think it only fits RHD dashes! We have electric folding mirrors (Yo JDM!) with the indicators in them! I think your dash is nicer with the proper glove box though rather than our big shelf thingy!

 

I cheated and got the Magellan RoadMate 3000T.

 

we have folding mirrors in N. America, but not power folding mirrors...

unless i'm just too stupid to find a button for it

 

Would love the RH Drive.

So sick.

 

Looks pretty nice. I don't need navigation, but it would be nice if I were to road trip (and as a trip computer). I'd love it if there were a SmartKey type entry/ignition system (I think SmartKey entry/ignition is the way of the future for automobiles. Keys are so passe!).

Get all that in the Fit here in the US with the 1.5l engine, and it would probably be a good $1-3K upsell.

It would also shut up those reviewers that griped that the Fit doesn't have navigation or bluetooth!

 

...The current US-market Fit will never get that navigation system and automatic climate control because it will probably add around US$2,000 to the price of the car.

However, when the second-generation Fit arrives in the USA (probably when Honda's new Greenburg, IN assembly line opens), I do expect a navigation system/automatic climate control, though.

 

They also look like shin busters in the event of an accident...

 

Whats the big deal with Navi? Use a map. Save $2,000.

 

Convience factor.

Not having to worry about getting lost. Not having to carry maps of every county in your glove box. Not having to run to a computer and printing out directions everytime you go somewhere new. Not having to get screamed at by the girlfriend or wife about getting lost and asking for directions.

Do people need cell phones capable of playing movies, playing mp3s, taking pictures, playing games, etc. No, but it's convient to have.

It's technology and it's there for those of us who want to use it to it's full advantage if possible. It's like saying what's the big deal about the internet, save the monthly ISP bills and hardware bills and just use the library.

How many times have you seen someone driving not paying attention to the road because they are too busy looking at a print out of directions? Or someone who swerves across 3 lanes to exit because they didn't know it was coming up? Well navigation systems help to alleviate these problems.

If the EDM/JDM navigation system or the navigation system from another US Honda would work in the Fit, I'm one that would purchase it.

As for the power self-folding turn signal mirrors, that's just JDM bling that's on my list of modifications.
