Well, I'd rather have a MDX over either one of those. But looking at it from a practicality and economical standpoint... the Fit is more suited for my needs.

I was thinking about the 350Z convertible... but decided against it because the car is too big and clunky for me (I like small, sleek cars). I was also disappointed because the Nissan dealership told me straight up that if I wanted one, they were going to be charging at least $8k over MSRP when they came out.
Holy dookie - that's a lot of dealer markup.

I know. But you never know what might get lost in translation
Um, they put it on a boat and ship it. There is no translation.

Be glad you didn't shop S2000's in 2000 then
I heard they were going for a bit over MSRP, depending on the dealer.

We are not permitted to sell anything even a dollar over MSRP - owner rules.

I was considering it, but I have this thing against buying cars in their first year of mass production...

(which is kinda why I'm waiting for a Fit sometime in the future. Maybe)
Fit wont really go down in price - there is only $650 in markup. Between all the dealership fee's that are assessed to a vehicle getting it ready, the dealership will only make $152 of each Fit sold.

I'm probably the only person on here who doesn't like the Fit. Honda can/should do better than that.
Compared to it's competition, the Versa & Yaris... Fit > *
