Well, the professional auto reviewers compare everything to a Corvette. Maybe a 3 Series sedan if they're trying to look grown up. You're comparing it to a Firefly. Maybe the Premier's limo if you're trying to act snooty.

I'm a DD kind of guy too. Fun, yes, but also cargo space. How many X (fun, silly and maybe practical) things can fit in it? PaleMelanesian's report that his Fit could do three car seats in the back and a hay bale in the trunk put the Fit on my short list.

BTW, with one bale in the trunk the Fit can hold three more in the backseat area, with two booster seats and a week's grocery run in the passenger seat. A few weeks ago it had two propane cans, some luggage, a set of cornhole boards and three pool tire floaties (yes, inflated). Tag, Darin: fill that car!
