Comparison Test: 2007 Honda Fit Sport vs. 2008 Scion xD

Kids today, eh? The 2007 Honda Fit Sport and 2008 Scion xD are meant to grab the attention of a generation that knows how to play it loud. These cars are supposed to be all about watts, speaker count and iPod inputs.

Yet they are both so sensible that you'd swear the coveted Gen-Y market was filled with aging no-bones consumers more interested in price and practicality than loud music. And in fact, older drivers are proving to be just as enthusiastic about sensible, stripped-down cars as younger drivers.

They should do '09 xD vs '09 Fit.

Again the car manufacturer are selling cars with Horse power figure. Get real people, it does matter if these cars do 30 seconds on a 1/4 miles. It is designed for heavy traffic and fuel economy. No reason to argue about brand either because if it is good, it doesn't matter what it is labeled. Looks though are individual preferences, it is not wrong or right which one you like.

I don't wanna be seen dead in that scion, or any scion as a matter of fact. Why doesn't Toyota make fun cars anymore? They are all so dull. The Celica was made for 35 years and they scrapped it. I wanna pop in the balls whoever is responsible for turning Toyota into pretty much an appliance making corporation.

@TheCoolfez I used to know a guy who had a 1992 honda civic with 268,000 on it, and it is still going strong! Not to say Toyotas' are bad cars, because they are good cars, but in my experience, I see Hondas live longer

@TheTraxxasfreak well Scion is a Toyota brand

[davidhalifax]

Wonder how the new FIT will beat this XD ?

[TheTraxxasfreak]

bUT REALLY, IS THE SCION GOING TO BE AS RELIABLE?

[WhatThePresidentSays]

[soccermomd00d]

They forgot to mention one downside of the xD: it looks like an abortion. the emoticon that makes "xD" is pretty much the face I'd make if someone suggested it to me.

@fasthonda

2008 carry over to 2010 Model XD remain the same without NEW DESIGN yet

And the Fit may do the same.... - We're waiting to see new design with real better prices!!!

[MrBooty2000]

The Fit just has a better interior. It's so flexible. It's like a little minivan and it's more fun to drive than the XD.
