Duuude. The little back under seat compartment is a really cool deal. Great place to store your concealed n carry. LOVE IT!!!!! Thanks Jason.
oh great now everyone knows about my secret compartment
I just purchased a 2013 Honda Fit Sport to carry my electric folding bike and to sleep in if need be. love it so far.
enjoy it
How do you sleep in it? Which way
@@ndavies5968 I'm 6'1"' 200lbs and I haven't slept in it yet. I will set up a jr. twin bed behind the rear passenger side.
I just bought this on Wayfair and the rear seat headrest can be turned around and extended (with the front passenger seat moved all the way up and rear seat down) to give about 65" inches of room. This jr. twin mat is 30" by 75" x 4" and I sleep on my side and I will use a couple of sleeping bags, yoga mats, blankets, etc to place on top of the mat to make it less firm for me is the plan. mat was only $50. www.wayfair.com/outdoor/pdp/elite-products-jr-twin-tri-fold-cot-ete1060.html?piid=19994732&csnid=A392CA9B-E86A-492B-8719-61A925206E52&_emr=9445f380-100a-47ca-a742-901b9f091efb&wfcs=cs3&_eml=0ea87f0b-8050-4c08-99f6-f03cdbc151ae&refid=EML_40399&source=graymatter
@@chuckkoehler9526 thanks for the reply. I might try camping out in mine one day. Having problems with the abs modulator pump at the moment. Apparently they are a common fault on this car. Other than that it's been flawlessly reliable for 2 years
@@ndavies5968 A common problem in the Gen2 Fits as well? I saw posts for Gen1 Fits with ABS pump issues. I like the HR-Vs a lot and even the newer Fits (at least the safety tech aspect and more horsepower, etc.), but I wanted to pay cash only for now as I don't have my credit built up at the moment. I'm still getting use to how sensitive the steering wheel and accelerator peddle are compared to '98 Honda Civic that I had.
Wow. I knew about the cup holders (figured out on road trips), the secret compartment, but the long pull string for the spare cover was news to me. Wish I'd known that before four tire changes (over four years, 80,000 miles, and 25 states).
I will admit, I love Honda and I do get very excited. I have not seen any videos on the 'secret' compartment or the removable cup holders. The new Fit is coming soon and I will dig deeper into that one. Thank You for watching.
I do like that rule and yes the cover on the 'hidden' cup holder in the DelSol is awesome
Thank You and I'm glad you enjoyed it
Now that's a very good tips and tricks video for Honda Fit owners or for people thinking about getting a Honda Fit (in Europe it's called the Jazz).
Great Job, HondaPro Jason!
The only info at this time is the 2014 Fit will be made in Mexico and there will be other versions of the fit. A wagon, a 6 passenger and a hybrid are all in the works. Ill have more info on my weekly News shows. Thanks for watching and Please SUBSCRIBE so you can be 'in the know'
Thanks so much! I hadn't been able to find the 'secret box' on my 2012 and googling it did no good....and I checked out the rest too....well on my way to become a FIT freak!
Thanks Jason! Just got one last month!!!
Perfect timing for the ALL NEW 2014 Fit coming out fall of 2013
Thanks a lot for uploading this great video, I learned something new about my Fit ! I didn't know the cup holders at the center console are removable =) FYI that hidden compartment underneath the rear seats can easily hold a full size iPad cause that's where I store mine when I leave the car.
awesome presentation dude thanks
Awesome video. I did not know any of those things about my Honda Fit, and I've owned the car for a year.
I didn't know the bottom of the seats came up! I bought my used 2013 last year and I'm in love with it, so excited to find out it still has surprises for me
Awesome! Enjoy it.
Watched this 9 years ago, bought a Fit. Been in love with the car ever since. Thank you Jason!!
What year is urs
@@nbatalkz6635 2012! Still going strong
@@sergiorosales4982 ty for replying.
Just bought mine (2011) as my first car and can confirm i'm completely pleased with it!
@@sergiorosales4982 hahah i have a 2012 too, happy so far could use some more horsepower tho
Only issue I have with this car is the front left and right pillar blind spot. But then again you get better safety in a front end crash. Sort of annoying though
Criarius, i have an 09 fit sport. It is my first car, i highly recommend it, my friends are actually jealous of it. If you do decide to get one, make sure its the sport, and a 5 speed (i taught myself how to drive it, you can too)
The Fit Rocks!! Thanks for your feedback :-D
As a new Fit owner, this was very useful. Thanks.
Hey Jose...any advice? Just bought a used Honda Fit
Thank you Roy.
Thank You for watching & for your support
you are awesome, dude. very helpful. i thought you were like 6' 6" though. shows what i know. please do share more when you know more about the 2014 fit.
Yes for sure, We are expecting some nice changes in the 2013 CR-Z. A S+ button and more. So Ill do one as soon as we get the new one
We will get a Fit Hybrid in the States next year and I hope Honda keeps the same ideas
"Air conditioned and heated cup holder" option. LOL. Common man. :P
lol always having some fun
Thank you :-) and watch for 2013 Civic Tips and Tricks coming soon
Great video!! Thanks!
That's a great suggestion.
I didn't realize half this stuff until 6 months into owning it. When I found the secret compartment under the seat I almost lost it! When you go to reach your cabin filter behind the glove box, you may also find random stuff in there. I recently had to open it and found bank statements from the last owner.
Very useful. Thanks.
you sure do notice the little things that ppl don't usually mention :-) great vid!
Very helpful!
This was one of my most fun videos to shoot
haha only thing bad about the vents being in front of the cup holders is if you are weird like me and are drinking a cold drink in the winter time. lol
I've had my Honda fit since 2012 and I just found out that my back seats recline.
Lol! I was thinking of buying a Fit last month when I found out the guy I got my last car from had one coming up for sale...I also noticed in my complex parking lot in the visitor spot, there was someone that was visiting for the last week that had a Honda Fit with Fla plates (Im in Mass, there were window stickers so I knew it wasn't a rental) and I thought who better to ask than someone that owns one, esp where they drove here from Fla! I never ran into them though so the day I was going to test drive it I left a note on the windshield just saying I was thinking of buying one and testing it later, but figured I'd try leaving my number if they didn't mind telling me what they thought (the guy whose lot it was on is also a family friend and said I may not like it, its a 5 speed, but he said it tacs high in the highway so he thought it was a "city car" & I may want to drive it on the highway 1st so I was nervous about that) of the car. Well, I went to the test drive and the Fit owner hadn't called by this time. I took it for a spin and didnt really notice anything big when I took it on the highway, then again, he apparently forgot to put air in the tires bc the tire pressure light was on and it shook like hell when I tried to go over 60, so that ended my test drive, but when I got back he said it did need a new front tire, he was having a hard time getting that size bc of the virus, his tire guy was out. I loved the car anyway and new the tire situation would be fixed. That evening the Fit owner called and after laughing about the strange note on her car, she was in the next bldg over visiting from Fla and to come out so she could show me some things, LOL! I was like Okay...lol! Well, she had bought it last yr used (2013) and she recently discovered the seats flipped forward and wanted to show me bc I wasn't buying it from someone who drove it and the dealer prob didn't know this secret either, lol! She ended up being the sweetest lady! I figured, I mean, she's a "Honda person" so....how can she not be!
Turns out, the car I was buying and her car was the same yr, only difference was mine is stick, hers is auto. She previously had a Honda Crv I think she said and it was over 300k when the seats were literally rotting out of it, lol, and she gave it to a family member who then used it as a race car at the local track and raced it quite a few times before he crashed it in the demolition I belive...with well over 300K! My first standard and the first car I bought on my own was a '90 Honda Civic 2 door hatch 4 speed and that car by far has always been my fav! I had it for years and literally cried the day I had to drive it to the junkyard with 198K not knowing then what I know now, but well that was then. Now, I have another Honda hatchback and I hope to have it for MANY yrs to come!
Im actually having a slight issue with it now where it shakes upon starting it, but then smooths out when it warms up a few minutes, but then it hesitates on the highway slightly when Im driving along. I was told it sounds like the timing, so I contacted the place I got it bc its only been 3 weeks. I have to call his mechanic Tues and Im not driving it til Im bringing it to him. Its funny bc before I bought it, I called MY mechanic and asked if he heard anything bad about Honda Fit and he said no, Hondas are a good car, but then asked about miles which is a little over 73k and he did say if the timing hasnt been done, they do need to be done around 70k, and not to wait bc if it went itll ruin the motor...so of course now Im worried because I noticed the shaking maybe a week after I bought, but thought maybe it was the gas I put in bc I wasn't paying attention and put reg instead of super gas in it and filled up, but I let it go down to almost E and filled with Super and it still did it! Then I got new tires the other day bc it still needed a tire and the guy I got it from would have just put a used tire and with winter coming I just had 4 new tires put on it now rather than a month from now and I STILL noticed the hesitation, very slightly, on the highway, ugh! So when I started it this morning and it seemed to be a little more shaking when I first start it, I text the guy whose lot I got it from and drove to work slowly and home and now wont drive it until Im driving it to the mechanic. I hope nothing was done in the meantime, but I didnt think it'd be such a big problem already after only having the car 2 weeks, you'd think all this stuff would be done and gone through and that if the timing is a known thing at 70K and its a 73K, the place I got it would have done it before they sold it, right?!
@@Em22-wtf Yes.
I would say hand wash. Thank You so much for the feedback. If I can help with any Honda questions please contact me.
Jason
im literally getting this exact same car this thursday, just without the tinted windows and it’s a 2010 model
haha me too, always drink hot coffee but cold water, regardless the seasons.
Thanks and one day ill upload all the 'outtakes' i have cause i did that scene like 5 times n still messed it up hahahaha
Haha. I havent decided for sure if thats what I want to do, and if I do, it wont be until next year sometime (probably spring or summer at the earliest). I'll let you know if thats what I decide to go for, and hopefully you can make it worth the drive.
Lovely car 👍
thanks for making a review of this car! im off to college in a few months and i'm deciding between the honda crv and the honda fit... which one would you recommend?thanks:)
I love my fit
Yes, we are getting the 2013 CR-Z and there is no talks about discontinuing it here in the U.S and challange exepted, HPJ will find a Tip or Trick that you don't know about ;-)
@Indianmalujl I'm working on a paddle shifter video, so it should be soon ;-)
cup heater/cooler, had it on my 2001 Hilux !
I wish my new Honda Fit has that like my 2013 fit.
how new ?
It be nice if the drinks can be kept cold in the summer since the A/C for the fit sucks in really hot days, wish the civic would have the cupholders near the vents since the A/C for the civic is extremely cold
I agree its a Civic wagon/ Civic Hatch. Just wait for the New Civic wagon. It looks amazing and is called the Civic Tourer.
The back seats also recline.
Those cup holders by the vent are best used for gas receipts, lose change, breath mints, etc.., ..a cup or bottle blocks the AC or heat.
Can you show us how to make the USB port work?
what's new for the 2014 FiT? six speed, independent rear suspension, rear discs or better drivers seat for 6+ feet tall?
found out recently that rear seats can recline while i was fooling around with it and juz realized theres a compartment underneath the seat from this video. now im wondering what else i didnt know.
Which honda has the best hidden compartment?
Jason, I wish you had touched on the navi. I've owned all my Acura/Hondas with navi. Every system is different. Well except 2012-13 Civic/Fit minus the Civic having a backup cam/XM.
Great question, the only real minuses are It's a bit noisy on the highway, there is no option for an upgraded interior like leather and the drivers seat doesn't adjust up and down. That's about all I have heard from Fit owners
HondaPro Jason no, it can be adjusted
What trim is this fit? I like the nav system.
1:08 You forgot to mention the built in pen holder on the back part of the upper glove box wall. It's made of black rubber. It's hard to see unless you know where to look.
Wow, there's even a place to put 6 packs of Buh..Soda in there.
how did u lock the back seat up?
what are the minuses of the Honda Fit? i'm like obssesed with this car for no reason before attempting to buy i want to know what are the minuses. thanks in advanced and great tricks and tips.
:-) Thank you that made my day :-)
Nice
Great question. I have had a few 6' people fit in the Fit LOL but a few not fit. It really depends how long your legs are :-) I would suggest visiting your local dealer. Please let me know after :-)
I'm thinking probably a CVT trans, same suspension, rear disc brakes and as for the drivers seat not sure. Also more tech, better fuel economy and new safety features. All with a very small cost increase :-)
Jason, could you tell me the purpose of the small knob a few inches above the interior hood release lever? TY
Lovely 👍👍
I love the Fit. Up to date honda civic wagon
@Ge0vone I think things will change when manufacturing moves to Mexico next year
Is there spare tyre in 2008 Honda Fit?
We don't sell Suzuki in the U.S. anymore. Sad because the cars they make overseas are very nice
Hey, @HondaPro Jason. How does this car behave on highway? Is it too week or noisy?
OMG I've been driving my Fit since November 2009 and had no idea them cupholders were removable....wow
I also owned a 2013 lincoln mks ecoboost awd.
I want bluetooth, but I also don't want a built-in nav system. I have a navigation on my phone. Don't see the need for paying extra for another.
Would love for bluetooth to be standard in the regular Fit or a Fit Sport option without the nav.
what info do you have on the 2014 fit?
I have a Honda fit 2008 sport. I did not know it could do all of that.
My 1st car.....
my father had bought 2013 honda fit recently. there is also "she's" on the back of the car. I searched "honda fit 2013" on internet but the design is differnet from our car. how many types of honda fit are there? can you list the name of Honda fit? like mitsubishi pajero, toyota markII
it is the with Honda Fit Hybrid?
I'm 6 feet tall, would you recommend this car for me or suggest something else?
Anything new about the third gen?
The perfect drug dealer car... HA HA HA
Saint Mars It truly was a joke.
You had me at 6'5". 😍
very nice! I kinda wanna trade my mazda for a new Fit.
Thank you young Jason Statham!!
Your welcome :-)
Love my 2012 Fit Sport. It's NOT a BMW, so don't expect plush, quiet interiors or fast acceleration. Minor gripes are road noise, useless sun visor. Wish it had an overhead center console or option for a sun roof. Factory tint would be nice. But for the reliability, gas mileage, spaciousness, design, versatility, can't beat it.
De Tran i have that car too, it's the epitome of a city car regarding the everyday city transportation
I have an 09 fit mk3.. Its called. The Honda jazz over here in UK. Fit sounds so much better!
So interesting because many of us here like the name Jazz
HPJ grows hairr..!! oh wait this was 8 years ago
Fresh!
At 1:39 you said you're 6'5?
Can keep the drinks chilled, but the Fit ac is kinda weak.
But do you fit comfortably while driving it? I'm looking into one but I'm tall like you
I wish I could move the front driver's seat back just a little bit more (0.5" to 1") with a 36"ish inseam at 6'1" as my old Honda Civic went back 1.4" inches further and I had it close to all the way back. If I'm not using the cruise control, I may consider taking my shoes off to reduce my leg length.
Hey, there is a button on the 2013 Honda fit RS (sport in US) next to the stability control on/off switch. Looks like a windshield with a wiper and a zig zag line going across horizontal. Any idea what it does? I've been looking everywhere for info.
Traction Control bro.
Desmond MacRae really, Traction control? Wonder why it sort of looks like a windshield. Thanks for th reply mang
Too bad the removable inside cupholders are open on the sides. Now, the spilled fluid will still get to non-removable parts of the compartment.
I have honda jazz 2012 im bit worried.boz people are nicking Catholic converter from my friend car (2009 honda jazz). Plz tell me is that possible to remove this stuff from 2012 honda fit and jazz boz i want to protect my car .
It depends on your local laws. Here in the U.S it is not legal to remove Catalytic converter’s
Wait, 6'5", didn't you say you were short in your Civic video? 0.o
