Why mod a brand new Fit?
Should of bought a used 2007 Civic SI Sedan with an extended Honda warranty instead for the same price if you wanted a car that looks-handles-performs better...

same can be said about S2000, M3, and any other cars out there. What is the point?
The S2000, of the showroom floor, will handle with 95% of the cars out there and is only really let down in a straight line. It's still plenty quick, though.
The Fit has no such comparable performance off the showroom floor, so it's not a suitable analogy.

have you driven both?
either car is not really idealistic for performance cars. you buy one or other for different reason.
granted that I would buy civic FD type r over any of these cars, maybe even S2K.
I am thinking about buying it here in japan.

I still have the S and my bike, no need for another fast vehicle. I bought the fit because of it's quirky looks, huge windows and interior (relatively) and because it's new as opposed to pre-owned.
Si's are more expensive to mod, plus i'm looking to mod it differently, the S will be for hp/track as my bike, but the Fit I just want to make a JDM cruiser.

The Si has a lot more potential and is quite a bit more potent off the showroom floor.
