I wish if I get feed back from someone who own this car so I will buy it happily. Is there any known issue on this Honda fit 2008? Are those all Hybrids or there are some regular Gas car for this model 2008 Honda fit? What price should I expect if the car only has 8000 millage? Please help?

I just recently bought a car, and I looked into the Honda fit, but no I don't own one. It's not a hybrid - it just gets good gas mileage and has "ultra-low emissions." It's considered a "green" car. But I've never seen anything about it stating that it's a hybrid and it runs on regular old gas.

At any rate, my opinion is that Hondas aren't what they are cracked up to be. People who own them think they are worth more than they are. (So of course anyone who owns one is going to disagree with me I'm sure.) I already knew someone who didn't have a great opinion of Hondas (or at least just thinks they aren't worth the price), but when I was car hunting I checked with a mechanic and he said they don't have the body integrity to be in the class of say a Toyota. (Which is why the other person says they're too expensive for what they are.)

If you were going to keep it for a while, I'd say forget it. If you think you might sell it within a reasonable amount of time, it might not be a bad deal simply because they do have good resale value.

Have you sat in it? It's a bit weird. Even Consumer Reports (who love Hondas) thought it was weird.

As for price - I have no clue. You can try Edmunds or Kelly Blue Book, but I've never quite trusted either one, except as a rough estimate. (I suspect your location affects price a lot.)

All just my opinion of course.
