Oh, one more interesting spec, given that we are trying to compare relative strengths to each other:
Fit Cargo space with the seats up: 21.3 cu-ft
Corvette Coupe Cargo Space: 22.4 cu-ft

Don't forget that in addition to the short wheelbase, Fit slalom times benefit from it being narrow. Take two otherwise identical cars, widen one 6", and the narrow car will get a better time from having to turn less around each cone...but the wider car may handle better in the real world.
