sick, thats how racing should be...no straights, tight track and constant turning. Straights are for M5's that cant pass in the turns.

assuming thats horse thief mile

I could care less if some Honda can overtake an M5 in a corner. I'd still rather be driving the M5.

Ive driven my buddies fit, I will say this. For a FWD, its not a bad little car, even stock its got pep (for a non boxer turbo that is), and you can toss it around in corners and it just doesn't care.

Actualy now considering one as a replacement DD for my Camery.

Nice little car, but I'll take M5 over any fit.

Haa.. I have to say, M5's are nice cars though I have only driven one and not that far but I would choose the Fit. I personally never had much use for a car like the M5, and my disdain of heavy impractical gas guzzling vehicles has gotten so out of control that my '09 Fit Sport is my largest, heaviest car. Got it for my wife, had no idea it would be such a fun car to drive - but it is. Seeing that mpg thingy saying "39.4" or something while you are wailing down a twisty road is pretty neat too.

Id rather see this Fit go against the new M5, still not too bad for a Fit I guess. Not too mention thats gotta be the sickest sounding Fit Ive ever heard.
