@nisornt Pros: 1/ Mechanical simplicity compared to AT. Arguably a manual transmission is less likely to break. 2/ When I bought my car it was about $1,000 cheaper 3/ Fun to drive. You have more control and feel connected to the car. Cons 1/ Selling it can be more difficult as less and less people know how to drive manual 2/ Could be annoying in a stop and go traffic 3/ Difficult to talk on the phone and drive (not really a con IMO but for some people...) 4/ final gear ratio. ~3500rpm@70mph
@nisornt As much as I like hondas, I've been burned by their automatic transmissions before. Go to autobeef and you'll see some of the worst cars are auto hondas.
*holds gun up to your head* Teach me!.....teach me now!......you're great at standard and I need to know because I'm getting a Fit too!!......TEACH ME!! RAWR
@eiggerris The reliability has been great so far. I've had it for a year and a half with no issues whatsoever. As far as the smoothness goes... I used to drive a G6 and the Fit's suspension is a lot harder. That makes the car very responsive but you also feel every bump on the road.
Hello, I'm looking into buying a Honda Fit. Don't know what to choose between A/T or M/T. What are your thoughts?

I'd get the manual for sure.

Great car, especially for the city. I love my '08 Fit but I'm moving on to something with a more comfortable suspension.

Is this car good on gas?

@jolg14 Better than the official estimate. I'm getting 35-40 mpg in mostly city driving.
