Trading the Fit...?

[87 Turbo II]

I feel like I am the only one that doesn't see the Fit as anything great. It's just like all the other little econoboxes only styled to look like a REALLY small minivan. I think the Honda fanboyism on IA is going to people's heads.

...except that it can outhandle a Z06.

What truly set the Fit apart was its handling — not a pretense of handling but the real deal, with springs and struts that allowed one gentle rebound and no more, the only car here that felt happy storming the switchbacks. We later confirmed this when the Fit sailed through our lane-change test 6 mph faster than anything else here — faster, in fact, than a Corvette Z06.

................ wow.................. well that'll certainly change one's perspective.

Dammit now I just feel dumb.

Don't hear me as saying that a Fit is anywhere as fast as a Z06 (or even a 350z), but I know that I would be more confident in driving a Fit through the mountain roads than the Nissan. Try to get in one some day.

It will impress you.
