    I was turned on to Honda in 2000 when my aunt and uncle sold me their '98 CRV which I still have. My CRV is great for moving stuff but not so great for commuting. I then picked up a '89 CRX si in 2003, and my love for small Hondas was born. I really liked the power and mpgs I could get out of the sohc motor. When it came time to buy a new car I ended up getting a '08 Fit Sport. I was a great car and reminded me a lot of my old CRX although way under powered and needs a 6th gear. I have always been interested in getting a hybrid, but after experiencing my mom's '05 Civic Hybrid I was very disappointed. My mom ended up trading in her Civic for a 2011 Prius and she/we could not be more pleased with it. When I caught wind that Toyota was building a smaller Prius I knew it was going to be my next car.

    I agree with the rest of you that feel that Honda has lost what they once had. Aside from the Fit, Honda's styling and product line-up has completely lost my interest...

    I just bought a C3 to replace my recently totaled first-gen Fit Sport. So far just about everything about it is better. It's pretty much my favorite car ever now.
