Neat! Thanks for sharing!

My fiancee has an 09 Fit Sport AT. I was wondering why it goes willingly at low engine RPM. Guess Honda finally figured out how to make low-end torque. I WOT redlined it once as part of the break-in process, and it just pulled from low RPM up to the ~6800 RPM redline. Usually I use the paddle shifters to shift before 2k RPM, as 1st and 2nd are really aggressive.

She's managed 40 mpg out of it on highway trips. My best is 42 mpg when the car had ~600 miles on it.
