    It is coming to Canada and I am thinking of buying it.
    I have 1993 Civic and it is an excellent car, but coming to the end of
    useful life.

    Regards, Ranko

  2. It should be competitively priced, perform, and style much like the
    Toyota ist (Scion xA). I liked the one I rode in on in Japan, though
    an automatic model, I would suspect Honda of NA would port over a
    manual transmission model.

  3. The Honda fit is like the Toyota's Scion xA... a subcompact four door
    (I believe the displacement is 1.3L) with great gas mileage and style
    and comfort... (They have been around Japan for a while now and have
    quite a crowd for them).

    One that will be sold in Canada is 1.5L/109 HP. Don't know will it be
    made in Japan or Canada or Brazil.
    Manual is what I want. Scion is not sold in Canada.

  6. As expected with the HP... to match that of the Scion xA/xB. I'm
    betting the price to be about $12,000 USD with all the fixings... I
    believe since the fit was all automatic in Japan (not confirmed) I
    believe the last rumored plant that will produce the fit for North
    America consumers will be Brazil, which should bring out a manual
    transmission model. Again, its just speculation where they will be
    assembled but otherwise confirmed that the fit will come to North
    America.

    If not made in Japan I might rethink.
    I remember lousy Jettas coming from Brazil.

  8. I don't know if the Jetta was ever made in Brazil, but the 1980s Fox was.
    Jetta is currently made in Mexico I think.

    I don't remember exactly, but it was VW car, and made in Latin America.

    I read that 70% of all parts of Honda's in Brazil are locally procured.
