Leakage: All-New 2009 Honda Fit appears ahead of Tokyo Show!
What appear to be official press shots of the all-new 2009 Honda Fit have surfaced online for the first time. The new Fit should be making its official debut in a few weeks at the Tokyo Motor Show, with home market sales beginning this winter. The Fit should subsequently head over to American showrooms next summer. The new model has a pronounced one-box shape with a sleeker look than the current model. The car in the photos also gets a panoromic glass roof.

As small cars go, I really like this. The interior alone puts even some mid-size cars to shame. Looking at you Chrysler...

Hey John... you can tell that from a postage stamp (400 x 241 pixel) sized picture? Or do you have that software they use in Hollywood movies where low-resolution pictures are blown-up/enhanced to show all details?
Seriously, I can also reduce the size of pictures of Chrysler interiors and make them "look" good. Not saying that I like Chrysler interiors, as they have been below industry average for both textile and appearance standpoint.
I would wait before opening my mouth to judge any kind of car, especially when viewing them from such small resolution pictures.

These are a little bigger than a postage stamp. I think I'll stand by my statement.

Oh snap PiCASSO!

i dont know, your 'large' pictures still dont give a good enough view. its like watching those home makeover shows on a 25" TV. there is so much that gets missed.
This could be a crap interior finish with lots of armorall on it. I'll give it marks for design though.

You've got to be kidding me right?
Anyone who thinks this thing looks good needs to let me know where they get their drugs. Must be some good stuff.
The outside is so bad I won't even start. The inside looks like they glued everything on with Elmer's glue and is ready to fall off.

Whoa! Im going to have to trade my 06 Fit in for this model.

Why don't you just save your money and buy a good car?

From what I can see, I like it too!

Wow, I just had a flashback to my childhood!
My sister had a little blue '70's model CVCC, and I swear this dash looks just like it. It probably isn't even close, but it reminds me of it. I just hope this new fit doesn't go retro with the nonexistant brakes hers had, and the clouds of blue smoke that issued forth on every cold start!
Neat little box--I like it!

Kind of odd looking from the side --especially the font end.

The additional pictures show a "standard" Fit vs. the "RS" pictured here. It looks like the RS model adds a modified front clip (lower valence) with chrome grill surround and side skirts, plus extras that are either not pictured or not obvious. A touch of style for $14K+

The rear end looks like it's made from recycled parts from the now-dead Civic SiR. Guess they still have a few thousands spare parts left at the manufacturer...

It looks like an S2000 was put in the microwave and someone hit popcorn.

At least the rear lights come cheap.... I hear they offer 5$ for every set stolen from a Suzuki SX4 and brough to the assembly line.

Oh my. I like the current one WAY better than that. It at least has a defined shape.

Could the headlights be any larger?
I personally hate this trend of gigantic headlight clusters.

Big improvement. I hate the looks of the current model which is practically the same as the Suzuki Arieo, Pontiac Aveo, etc. Essentially the same as every other Korean shit box.
This actually has some style and stands out. I love the sunroof.
Bring it quick. I am interested.

The current Fit is a great-looking little car. This sucker must be designed for snow-bound areas. Imagine the snow you could plow with that thing!
