Anyway, I talked to drdisco about the Fit and he said it's been honda's game for a while now to wait for the new style, copy it, and then make it better so that it outsells the people who put the money into the originality.

It's funny how the new Versa looks nothing like a toned-down version of Nissan's parent company vehicle, Renault's Mégane.

Bense finds great information. It was truly inspiring to see the people at Honda push themselves to the next level.
