Default Next gen Honda Fit breaks cover












It was recently posted in a TOV forum thread by a TOV member who claims that despite the clear doctoring of the photo (the doctoring all appears to have been done in an effort to conceal the vehicle's location), it's the real deal. Apparently, official images will break on the 26th, when a raft of Japanese car mags will be hitting the shelves with photos (or at least accurate renderings) of the actual car.

The front view looks like a baby mouse (ears and tail accessories, anyone?).
The 3/4 side/front view looks like a baby lizard that just broke through the eggshell with its beak.

That's for Japanese market, right?
I doubt ours will be remodel anytime soon, sure the fit is been out in Japan for a long time, but only arrived here last year. Just like the xB.
the picture looks OK to me.

the glass roof is cool.. wonder if that'll make it over.

Hmm.. RS = Road Sailing?!?!? Did I read that correctly?


The taillights look like some of those that I've seen on Fits here (people have swapped out their stock for aftermarket ones with LED brakelights)

it looks fine, interior is what I dislike the most... pretty decent looking small hatchback... a lot better than before.
