I have a 2004 Honda Jazz , ( I live in Thailand ) 251,000 k on the clock . Drives like new , I am a fan of Honda . I have had many cars in my life , discovered Honda , and never went back .
I'm a former MK4 Supra single turbo owner/builder (1100+hp). I have three Land Cruisers and a GD3 Honda Fit manual. Life's good. Nice video and overview.
I just bought a Fit with 90,000 miles. It drives really well going up the mountains here in NM. What I find pretty astounding is the sound system, as you point out. I feel like I'm in Carnegie Hall.
I bought an 08 5spd MT for a daily but it has like 180k miles on it. Just did, plugs, coils, thermostat, a new cat, and a valve adjustment. It runs amazingly now but it's a salvaged title and I'm thinking about building it for Autocross or something while I buy ANOTHER Fit to daily drive. Lmao. I absolutely love this damn car.
I purchased my Honda Fit sport five speed automatic in 2007. It's 15 years old with almost 200,000 miles on it and I love it. It can change lanes on the expressway faster than a corvette. My Honda Fit sport 5 speed was made in Japan. This car is so fast, this is why I don't use my peddle shifters in sport gear. I have it always in drive, because it's so sensitive going from zero to 60.
Bought my 2007 Honda Fit back in 12/2020 from Nalley Honda. It had 107,000 miles on it when I bought it. It currently has as of 10/2023, 247k miles. No issues at all. Great car for Instacart shoppers.
I bought a 2017 Honda fit ex new and as of today September 19, 2023 I put 245,000 miles on the engine! The only thing that broke was the air and heater blower motor cost $400 to replace. This car is indestructable!
I've got a vivid blue pearl 07 sport manual and YES the paint is fecking terrible, i have re-painted it, but the car/drivetrain itself seems bulletproof, 190k miles and I drive it like a hate it and doesnt miss a beat.
I’ve got a 2016 Jazz in bright orange. It’s a wicked little car, it fits a baby seat in the back seat and mountain buggy in the boot! Super efficient on fuel and easy to drive. I have a 65km commute each way to work and it does this just fine.
I'm an American moved to Europe and wonder why 80% of cars here are manual, not auto. It's because they use Smaller Engines than in America! The Honda FIT here has a 1.2-1.4 engine! Manual is required to rev out the engine to accelerate cause they're using 1.0 liter engines with 67HP here! Gas is $7 bucks a gallon!
Strange. I just bought a 2008 Honda Fit Sport off Craigslist. Basically bought the car sight unseen. Just off pictures etc. I took buses 3 different companies from Northern Maine to NYC. Then a cab ride to Brooklyn. The car had 26,947 miles, and was one owner. Woman 70 years old. Always garage kept. Red, just like yours. I love it! What’s funny, you mentioned Miata. I have one of those too. 1999 Miata NB with 44,600 miles. Never driven in salt. ( that’s red too) I bought that 6 years ago in Western Colorado with 24,600 miles from the second owner. 62 year old woman. She owned it 14 years. The Honda is going to be my winter car, Miata summer car with my Chevy Metro (owned 12 years with 243,000 miles) as my daily driver. I’m retired. I’m leaving here for 6 months in the winter and following the weather to Mexico most likely. ( Spent last winter in Mexico) That way, none of my cars will be driven in salt. I’ll just flip the insurance every 6 months.
I've got a 2008 Honda Fit that is just about to hit 80,000 KM (yes, 80k kilometers). 5 speed manual. I inherited it from my mother when she passed away. Love the damn thing even though I also own a 2017 Tacoma and a 2017 MX-5 Miata RF GT.
This is the perfect car for someone living in an urban area where parking can be at a premium. I always like these when I've seen them along with the Matrix's & Pontiac Vibe's.
I have an 07 manual with around 160k. Been perfectly reliable other than coils and just as fun as my 03 miata. I got it painted in Mexico which I recommend, paid $650 for a very decent paint job.
Bought one last year for commuting. It’s fun under 50mph, but it is slow. Paint on it is horrendous!! I’m thinking of just painting hood and roof black. Everything else is stock. #ricelyfe 😂
Did they get the leaks resealed? I've seen videos saying the rear hatch area had a recall to goop more sealant, plus I think the roofs had leaks as well.
i’m 21 just got my gd3 as my first car honestly don’t think i’ll ever need another car (except maybe an altezza) it came with problems and don’t know much about fixing stuff and i think i need a new cat:((
i got scammed a lil :/ hatch lock actuator i think not working passenger side rear lock actuator and honestly first gear is very sensitive it makes a thump noise in my left front wheel if i’m not pushing it with my pinkie toe
Pessima auto. Pessimo acquisto. Avrai i seguenti problemi: 1) cuscinetti albero primario trasmissione; 2) acqua che entra in più punti: davanti nel tappetino guidatore, dietro nello scomparto della ruota di scorta e nei tappetini posteriori; 3) air bags Takata pericolosi che vanno cambiati; 4) cuscinetti ruota rumorosi che vanno cambiati; 5) supporti motore che si marciscono e vanno cambiati; 6) è quasi impossibile cambiare le lampadine dei fari anteriori senza dover smontare il paraurti e i fanali. Immagina di doverlo fare in autostrada, di notte; 7) alternatore che sovraccarica e provoca lo sfarfallio delle luci e diminuisce drasticamente la durata della batteria a massimo due anni se si è fortunati; 8) pedale della frizione che fa rumore (un click metallico e rumore di molle arruginite) ogni volta che lo si preme; 9) perdita di liquido refrigerante ad un certo punto; 10) vernice che si scrosta sul tetto e sulle basi degli specchietti retrovisori... Una macchina di merda...

I love the looks of the 1st gen Honda fit..reminds me of the old Honda CRX.

It’s definitely one that’s underrated from Hondas line up

Thanks for the feedback.Actually getting a 2016 in a week for a commute of 60km each way to work
You’ll love it. My commute is all highway. Set the cruise and let her roll.

I just picked up a 2010 Sport 5MT and can’t believe I slept on these.

That’s awesome. I’m happy to hear of someone enjoying the journey of obtaining these great finds and appreciating them. Happy riding friend!
The first and second gen Honda Fits are amazing but I think the Yaris is even better !
Really smart choice Buddy
Rims are 🔥

I'm looking at getting a manual fit. What was it like to drive?
I love driving it. Good on gas, cheap to fix, tons of space for everything, and (knock on wood) it just doesn't die LOL @@Lexicon345

That’s awesome…check out my videos of my Montevideo Blue NA Miata…I agree they are fun to drive. Happy drive.
I bought a fit the other day. It's a bad mfer.
the 09 GE8 red is the same. I know because I have a red 2009 fit sport 1.5L Auto with paddle shifters 119,000 miles
Bought one last year for commuting. It’s fun under 50mph, but it is slow. Paint on it is horrendous!! I’m thinking of just painting hood and roof black. Everything else is stock. #ricelyfe 😂
Had a 2010 Honda Insight HYBRID. The Chassis was so HARD, I could feel EVERY BUMP IN THE ROAD and roof is LOW ON YOUR HEAD. NOT LIKE A PRIUS AT ALL.
one of my neighbours has a 2003 in pink.
Nice Fit, but I'd hard pass on an auto unless it was in showroom condition and dirt cheap. Those magic seats though!
Honda❤❤❤❤❤
Did they get the leaks resealed? I've seen videos saying the rear hatch area had a recall to goop more sealant, plus I think the roofs had leaks as well.
Yes I’ve had no issues regarding any leaks especially driving through snow and rain during these these last few weeks.

Both are equally reliable.
