2011 Honda Fit Sport Start Up, Engine, and In Depth Tour

[MrRichierich1990]

how do i post a video response?

[kqcrazii]

This was gonna be my first car, but it just projects too much 'soccer mom' to me now. I'll stick with the Civic Si.

[Eatingjalapenos]

Good review Kyle. Lots of cool features on that car.

[Chrispisz12]

Ugly ass car

[adamY2K]

I didnt like the previous gen fit, But i have to say this one has an excellent interior and a fairly stylish exterior. The interior wouldnt look out of place on a bigger car

[arnold84500]

cute chick car but way underpowered.

[FH99]

At my work I've helped a couple of customers load items into Honda Fits in the past and I was amazed at how big the cargo area was on them. Honda did a great job of maximizing the usefulness of the interior space on the Honda Fit.

[Ho0di]

I wonder why this engine has worse economy than the 1.8L in the civic.

[nirvana922]

I have a 2008 Fit Sport. Very economic! Nice interior too.. Althougj its a good car, I want something bigger and sportier to drive. Somehow i feel i dont appreciate that car enough

[kalargyi]

are the asian tall enough in the driver seat?

no height adjustable =(

[venichen1]

@kalargyi not all asians are of that short stereotype.

[evanbella99]

@kalargyi lol i know my dad has a Hyundai Elantra and the passenger height isnt adjustable either.

[Goldenrod636]

My friend wants one.

[evanbella99]

@Goldenrod636 My friend thinks you actually do.

[Goldenrod636]

@evanbella99 Your friend is a fucking idiot. :)

[venichen1]

The front is a bit different from the non-US market Fit/Jazz

[TheGuineaphinea]

Nothing sporty about that horn!

[jsiszero]

the Fit is GO!

[SwPiotrek]

I like it!

[MrJohnjake]

thats called the honda jazz in australia

[venichen1]

Why do people hate small cars? This is quite practical for its size.

[nielkainama93]

Honda is a joke...they make things too....futuristic and rigid in a bad way :s

[InteligentMan]

I want one!

[2003SCT]

OMG!!...have any of you guys seen the guy on here who uses Kyle's EXACT formula for doing Start up,Engine and Tour videos?? His YouTube user id is MegaRetr. I noticed one of his videos over on the right (review of the 2011 BYD F3) and I was like wtf? I guess its kinda funny but its pretty plainly a rip off. Thumbs up to keep saabkyle04 videos in front of this guys videos!

[7477238]

@2003SCT Don't worry plenty of people do Saabkyle04's videoing style but they don't have ads on their videos which means they don't aim to profit on it. All of them are subbed to Kyle's channel anyways, they just want to show a few cars off. Kyle will always be the original.

[yamahonkawazuki]

@2003SCT yeah thumbs up the videos ( so it gets higher ratings :)

[2Kriss2Kross]

@2003SCT Kyle doesn't care if people use his format. He is also YT friends with many of them so it shows he doesn't mind. Plus MegaRetr has one advantage and thats getting cars we don't get in North America.

[xoquixxoqafxo]

The 2012 Updates greatly improve the look at the Fit Sport.

[edyken77]

@xoquixxoqafxo All I see are some new paint colors and a slight mod to the fascia. Are there other updates I'm missing?

[xoquixxoqafxo]

@edyken77

Sport models get new rims, steering wheel audio controls are now standard, bluetooth is now included with NAVI, The base models get updated styling with new wheel covers, body colored side mirrors are now included and the base also gets features buyers expect like cruise control and keyless entry with security system. Its a big difference when you park a 2011 next to a 2012

[qwerty14341]

do the pilot

[bigzbert]

I hate the car, but your reviews are the best

[yamahonkawazuki]

@bigzbert agreed. interesting how others try and sometimes fail to copy kyles style Eh?, watch a few other reviews out there . youll see

[bigzbert]

@yamahonkawazuki Yeah some people do that

[MsZharas]

Возникла ошибка. Повторите попытку.

[pjurek99]

Backseat does not only fold it also can be folded-up for vertical storage. This review was not made thoroughly...

[cdnlad75]

@pjurek99 I have to agree, the vertical folding seat is the 'key' to making this car unique in the subcompact segment. Although, the Fit is overpriced for what it is and and even more overpriced when you get insurance quotes.In Canada, a mid-grade Honda Fit is more expensive than an entry level Mazda3 hatch with air, auto, and cruise control added on. Personally, I wish Honda brought the Civic Hatchback instead of this Fit.

[iHuDxRanDoM]

why do 4 cylinders always sound so mean? when there basically junk?

[tacomanfan344]

@iHuDxRanDoM Because 4 cylinders aren't junk. That's a fucking ignorant way of thinking, dude.

[iHuDxRanDoM]

@tacomanfan344 Im not a 4 cyllinder person im not a ricer fan, i like my v6s and v8s, thoe 4 cylinders are good on gas and sometimes performane im not hating i own a an inline 4 2012 focus dont get me wrong its fast but i like to feel the power not just here it.

[venichen1]

@iHuDxRanDoM I don't really find large engines appealing to be honest. I love I4s.

[ladyyuna2000]

I want this 2011 honda fit sport in Milano Red.

[Shamrocks4401]

Sport mode. Hahaha. Best joke ever.

[SuperSportSS]

@Shamrocks4401 I have a sport mode. It called a Camaro IROC-Z.

[MattHutzell]

And lol, same key chime as my '94 Accord.

[jex9]

@MattHutzell The chime sounds like an alarm clock!

[MattHutzell]

Blah, automatic.

[phlewis86]

Your videos are the best. I really enjoy watching them a lot.

[meerkat006]

I want to shoehorn a V8 into this.

[UnboundLegend]

@meerkat006 I once saw one with a HEMI badge on the side. lol rice '-'!

[daafies2]

Its

[daafies2]

Winner in it's class

[CHICOZTACOS]

The folding rear seats and completely flat surface they create is the Fit's killer feature. I would have liked to have seen that demonstrated bait more than it was. Aside from that, great job as always. Nobody better.

[BrianGTR38]

27 city and 33 highway.. ... but in Malaysia only 15 city and 20 highway...

[venichen1]

@BrianGTR38 in km/l.

[luisinhoens90]

@BrianGTR38

Those 15 city/20hwy could be kilometers per liter which is very respectable for a small car. It's like 30-something mpg.

[BrianGTR38]

@BrianGTR38 you know in malaysia fuel so expensive...

[venichen1]

@BrianGTR38 the american fit is in mpg...ours is in km/l so 20 km/l is not bad plus our fuel is cheap...

[BrianGTR38]

nice.. in Asia we call Honda Jazz

[nickhawkman]

gotta love your honda's!

[theballinmaster]

There is a refreshed 2012 Honda Fit Coming soon to a Honda dealer near you. Also the new assembly plant for the Fit will be in Mexico, so it will be cheaper to assemble the parts, instead of manufacturing and assembling the Fit from Japan.

[hailfire82997]

why does honda just change the name from jazz to fit for the american market??

[streesmut70]

@hailfire82997

As that honda are use blue replaced red in US. , Jazz in Europe and Asia are based on JDM Fit , but US spec Fit are different from JDM in Exterior detail

[wotan20]

@hailfire82997 It is very difficult to answer such question, without perusing the confidential files about the surveys what the marketing company made for the North American market, but please understand this: As a rule of thumb, there's a lot of research going into selecting the right name for such a widely distributed high value consumer product as Honda Fit.

Manufacturing companies hire marketing companies for tens of millions of dollars just for this item alone.

[hailfire82997]

@wotan20 hmm maybe we should just ask honda lol

[wotan20]

@hailfire82997 Good point. Why didn't you?

[RetroVintageItems27]

very ugly

[Digs259]

except for the nav it looks exactly like my 2009

[fvjhuynh]

awesome kyle, thanks for the review! especially since I requested this car :P

[HOPEKMEYER19]

one of my neighbors has a blue FIT

[TheMacFacts]

NAVI in a HONDA FIT WTF

[1stand4thgen]

I doubt it. Honda is an economy car company. THAT"S WHY I DONT GET WHY PEOPLE RACE THEM!

[Daniel569]

@1stand4thgen cause theyre very light and theyre engines are easy to mod and extremely reliable.

[ladyyuna2000]

I want either a 2011 honda fit sport or 2012 hyundai accent gls 

[kevin91203]

I love Kyle's reviews ! He makes buying a car so much easier !

[bober9989]

VTAK YO

[giannial1985]

There's something about today's Honda's that I don't like. You have to pay extra for thing that should be standard. You can't even get a sunroof or a height adjustable driver seat on the Fit. That's just dumb.

[Diemorder]

blindspots

[UnboundLegend]

WTF The 2012 Honda Fit came out a week ago... Why didn't you review that!

[7477238]

@UnboundLegend Maybe he took the video footage before the the 2012 Fit was released. Why can't people just appreciate the effort that probably goes into these videos? Go look at one in the showroom if you want one so bad.

[UnboundLegend]

@7477238 I really like this car anyway. It's just that the 2012 has the new nav system (like the one in the new civic) and bluetooth.

[phanchochan]

he forgot to fold up the rear bench

[BallardAutoReviews]

Nice job as always Kyle! Hey guys check out my review and tell me how I did!

[HighDefGamer03]

Haha just detailed one of these today.

[ThatCheetosGuy79]

watching battle LA

now im scared shit less :(

[weaponexpert1]

omg what a fuckin piece of shit... kyle, what the hell is wrong with you reviewing such a clunker

[1SirCarlton]

@weaponexpert1 not that im a fan of this car but what makes it a POS?

[weaponexpert1]

@1SirCarlton well, i hate small cars - and this one is very ugly, too...

[1SirCarlton]

@weaponexpert1 hm, well agreed i suppose. im suprised it has a rev limiter O_o

[ilovecars1996]

for having nav and premium sound there should be a sunroof

[ThatCheetosGuy79]

do a 2011 ram 2500

please i'd appercaite it

sorry for my bad english

[Motorfordtoyota]

Hahahaha, the Roadmaster is in the background like 'no matter what you do, Im still better then you"

[TheBigc837]

im jus wondering.....do ANY honda cars or trucks come with v8s....im curious

[Billy4202]

@TheBigc837 Nope.  Honda's never done a V8 in a production car.

[Motorfordtoyota]

@TheBigc837 Dont call them trucks, call them CUVs. Trucks are Body on frame.

[w140fan]

@TheBigc837 no

[TechGuru88]

@TheBigc837 I don't not believe Honda offers v8s on any of its vehicles. Ridgeline and Pilot only have v6s according to the website. Those would be the only vehicles that probably have a v8 option if there was one.

[xXDaMasta18Xx]

@TheBigc837 no Honda has never built a V8 for passenger vehicles but has built V8 engines for Indy racing

[1SirCarlton]

@TheBigc837 no

[Stet17]

@TheBigc837

No, they never did, at least in the last 20 years.

[Rayportugal]

@TheBigc837 they make v8s for racing.. but never for a passenger vehicle

[JUSTEATYOURFISH]

@TheBigc837 no

[crazyjdkid]

@TheBigc837 nope just the good old V6

[thebluexanadu78]

@TheBigc837 Accords. Duh!!

[b67717]

@TheBigc837 No, and hardly yet have I ever seen a Honda with an eight cylinder engine.

[RabbitRacing09]

@TheBigc837 its honda not GM lol

[Xboxlivemgear]

@TheBigc837

No, but when pressured in the 90's for them, they sent them a package of V8 fruit juice.

[counkev]

@TheBigc837 No they don't

[electrifiedcreations]

@TheBigc837 No, Honda' has Never made a V8 For it Consumer line of Cars/ and Light duty trucks and SUV's.

[314jrock]

I hate this cheap car. I would rather buy a used car of the same value of as this car than buying this car new.

[slzkilla]

u missed that the rear seats that can fold upwards D;

[glennman35]

I like the manual transmission ones.

[TheDoncreation]

Yup I Enjoyed it!

[torogami2]

what's with an lcd screen on a car that's supposed to be cheap and economical? These cars should just remove the radio and air conditioning, it'll lighten the vehicle making it more economical, faster and cheaper to build.

[TheSpritz0]

Can everyone imagine what the FUEL ECONOMY would rise up to if Honda stepped up to the plate and offered a 7-speed automatic like Mercedes has?? Also there would be no need for manual transmissions anymore- just sayin'

[venichen1]

@TheSpritz0 7 speed in a Fit? 6 speed would be more than enough, but I do think 6 speed is a bit of an overkill for a sub-compact heck some still have 4 speeders.

[TheSpritz0]

@venichen1 the fuel economy would be incredible with a 7 speed auto.

[UnboundLegend]

@TheSpritz0 What about a CVT O.o

[undeadkillers]

@UnboundLegend I don't think people would like CVTS. I been inside a car with one and dear god I cringed everytime when the gas pedal was pressed for a long time and all I could hear was the engine noise.

[UnboundLegend]

@undeadkillers I know lol. My grandpa has a Nissan Altima, and when he drives me somewhere, I'm like when is it going to end!!!!!!!

[TheSpritz0]

@UnboundLegend lots of comments on CVT's on YouTube, most negative. Lots of engine noise and doesn't FEEL right. This is WHY Mercedes stayed with 7-speed and now 8-speed automatics, they feel right.

[venichen1]

@TheSpritz0 but CVTs are quiet during cruise.

[TheSpritz0]

@venichen1 it is the time GETTING to cruising speed that has kept Mercedes, BMW, etc... out of the CVT market.

[UnboundLegend]

@TheSpritz0 And 8-speeds get great fuel economy!

[venichen1]

@TheSpritz0 I agree, the Golf Mk6 with the 7 speed DSG tranny gets incredible mileage for a car with a twin charged 1.4 engine.

i really hoped the new civic gets a 6 speed transmission but alas..

[rickyguti]

mazda2's better

[lockitcockit]

Kyle, you should do a review on the Lincoln Navigator

[infringinator]

Why would they put an LCD screen in the car and not have DVD capabilities? Makes no sense. Youd think it'd be a GPS if anything no?

[venichen1]

@infringinator it's a GPS unit...

[DreiRN]

The Philippine version of this has a better looking front bumper..

[MegaBoss123A]

You went from the Bentley azure to the Honda fit sport. Holy shit!

[rodrigodametto]

Here in Brazil this car is also called Fit and the prices are:

EXL 1.5:

US$ 41037.00 (manual transmission)

US$ 45450.00 (automatic transmission)

Very, very, very expensive for a small car like this

This country is a joke..... I hate live here......

[datboiwes333]

@rodrigodametto yeah but in Brazil you have all those fine women with the big butts lol

[wokeupthismorning100]

@rodrigodametto Fucking theives. Want us to drive pieces of shit as daily drivers!

[wokeupthismorning100]

@rodrigodametto I agree with you. Brazil is a joke.

[jango1968]

my jazz in uk

[datboiwes333]

This car is so blahh, like most Hondas. So anti-car enthusiast.

[derbigpr500]

@datboiwes333 Oi, you mean, american honda's. European and japanese models are much much much better.

[datboiwes333]

@derbigpr500 yeah but Euro Honda's are sold as a luxury brand, I think it was you that said that the other day on another video. Over here it's just a regular brand that competes with Ford, Chevy, Mazda and stuff. Honda's in Europe and Japan are more equivalent to Acura over here. Acuras are real nice I like Acura.

[ktonlai]

not gonna lie, thjat is really impressive legroom

[Barkerjoe56]

do a 98 prelude if you can

[gabrielgebeBR]

the interface of these cars players are so terrible

[carsallday12]

Navigation is just not a luxury option any more :/

[mk37mgteboy]

LOVE the sound of the 6.0 Power Stroke at 4:39!!

[yellowcow13]

I like it when kyle does everyday cars. Like Focus, Fit, Explorer, Odyssey, Tundra....

[Annihilator1111]

the 2008-present Honda Fit is assembled in

Japan

Thailand

Brazil

Greater Noida, India

United Kingdom

Indonesia

Pingtung, Taiwan

Guangzhou, China

Philippines

[aikerz07]

@Annihilator1111 but they call it jazz

[Annihilator1111]

@aikerz07 oh damn i know i forgot to put it in there lol im from Britian

[joshhhieee1]

in Europe its called the Honda jazz

[maldem]

Damn, that's a lot of cupholders.

[95115964]

What Is The Model Of Your Cam Kyle

& Thanks For The Great Review

[DeathSoldier10]

04:39 !!!????

[Jonolau1]

This car is really poor safety rateing

[04smallmj]

@Jonolau1 Really ?!?!?

[venichen1]

@Jonolau1 5 start EuroNCAP seems to disagree.

[JonnyFlash80]

I bet you will see a lot of morbidly obese people driving these if they aren't in a Toyota Yaris, or Ford Fiesta.

[yellowcow13]

@JonnyFlash80 The Fiesta is for young skinny and Fit (no pun intended) people.

[rsswga]

I want one or two

[michelinman8592]

I test drove a Honda Fit a while back. I'd recommend it to anybody!!!!

[RayzaBlayz]

too bad honda now changed its chime

[clkdragzta]

we call that HONDA JAZZ here in asia

[iamthemako]

@clkdragzta In Europe its called Jazz too, Honda FIT Sport sounds a bit weired for a micro/mini van

[spacely829]

@clkdragzta well this is america

[monkeystar2307]

@spacely829 and YouTube is an international site.

[spacely829]

@monkeystar2307 that started in america

[monkeystar2307]

@spacely829 and Honda started in Asia, we could go back and forth for as long as you want.

[vehiclerandomvideos]

@clkdragzta We have both the fit and jazz in singapore

[UnboundLegend]

@vehiclerandomvideos It's just a different name :) In Europe they call it the Jazz, but in America and Japan it is called the Fit.

[vehiclerandomvideos]

@UnboundLegend I know. But the jazz and fit have slight differences
