This car is impecable! I bought it with 12000 miles and it has never presented a failure. I've serviced it at an Honda agency and at the right time. The best points about it are: its driving, braking, habitability, materials' quality and engine, among others. The only drawbacks I can mention are: absence of a temperature gauge and stability control. I certainly recommend this vehicle, you will not regret it.
I have recently bought my own Honda Fit, and I definitely agree with you. I personally believe there are some other little things missing: lateral airbags and a glove compartment light.
