The weather outside is frightful. Is the Honda Fit Sport delightful? Emmy Award winning automotive writer Tom Voelk is forced to test Honda's versatile hatchback inside when a blizzard hits Seattle.

How is the audio system on the sport and above, is it the same as the sound system in the 2009 honda civic ex sedan? Could it be better?

It's fine but hardly a high end system. Keep in mind that there's a bit of road noise with the Fit and so it's not the best environment for critical listening. Hope that helps! TV

@sanmusa We're not restricted by the manufacturers, only by common sense. Seattle doesn't have the equipment to deal with a severe winter storm, the roads were truly horrible. Only vehicles with all-wheel drive and decent tires got through. Streets were blocked with cars that were stuck for days (I had to walk two blocks to my house).

As a native Minnesotan I believe winter driving is as much skill as it is vehicle performance. Tires make a HUGE difference too. Makes snow testing difficult.

I wish you would have driven the car outside, rarely you hear winter driving impressions from journalists. Do you guys get restricted by the manufacturers, do they not want you to drive the press cars on the slippery stuff?

I have this car in black and it is so cute and super comfortable! I wish I had built in GPS, though. : )

@jillybooty and the saddest part is you the one steped your foot in this situation of couple of old fairies fighting

[jillybooty]

@mrblockboii I'm imagining all of this being spouted out by a midget and that makes it much better. Seriously man, he wasn't trying to start a fight.

Nice review!

Can anyone tell how much the *Sport model* with auto trans but minus the navigation should costs OTD? I'm talking about the 2011 Fit, of course.
