| 2011 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
15,100 as a starting point for a 5 speed base which now comes with cruise!!! Why spend extra for the sport all you get is a spoiler, fog lights and alloy rims (1700.00 more ) Plus I got .90% financing. Thank you Honda!!! |
| 2010 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Fair price for a Honda |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
The payments are affordable and Honda Finance is easy to access for online payments. |
| 2009 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
It was under 20k, but more expensive than the similar models from other manufacturers. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Paid MSRP for base fit, used honda finance, with low down payment my monthly payments are $240 (60 months). Not bad for a new car. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I only considered cars that would cost $20,000 or less, including tax and fees. My Fit was less than $17,000. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I only consider cars that I could purchase for $20,000 or less, including tax and fees. My Fit was under $17,000, including tax and fees. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
cheap for a new car. My payments are only $250 a month. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
This car was a great value for the money. We could have paid less for a similar hatchback, but I don't feel we would have gotten the safety or reliability of the Fit. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Much lower total price than H.Civic or Accord EX. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
It was a reasonable price and the dealer gave a low interest rate on payments. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
We felt that we got a lot of features for the cost and are very happy with the price we paid. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
Cheaper than other cars with comparable cargo capacity. |

| 2013 | 4dr Hatch 117-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Honda seems to be relying very much on its brand image to justify the high price for this car. The older design felt premium if austere on the inside. This newer iteration feels gimicky but has a slightly higher feature level. But the fit and finish is fair and totally unbecoming of a Honda. Base level models have poor seat fabrics. And the car (any version) feels tinny and flimsy overall for the money being paid. This car should cost $13000 to $ 15000 max. Buying a fit over $15K seem to be counter-intuitive as there are a lot of cars out there that offer much better value for the money. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Base price was less than the Scion xD but by the time the extra packages were added it was more. |
| 2008 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
More expensive than the xB for less standard features and room. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Hard to find inexpensive and used. |
| 2007 | 4dr Hatch 109-horsepower 1.5L I4 5-speed automatic FWD |
Price was very high as compared to the Yaris when I test drove it. The low end model was not available at the time. |

| 2008 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
You get a full size class interior and quality materials at a reasonable (for european vehicle) price. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
You get(LUXE) MUCH more for the same as a base A4. VW also has incentives rarely matched. |
| 2007 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Found price to be $3000 to $4000 less than comparable wagon with comparable room. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
lease payments are low |
| 2007 | 4dr Wagon 280-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
optimal price/features ratio |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
This car was three years old. It was near the cutoff mileage where VW’s CPO would not cover the car. And it was priced to sell at 3K less than similar cars on the lot. If it had not sold that week it would have been sent to auction. |

| 2009 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel 6-speed manual FWD |
too expensive |
| 2008 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Passat is a little more expensive than other cars. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
My turbo four cost $26,000 with just rear side air bags, heated seats and floor mats as options. About $3500 over a similar Camry and Honda four. |
| 2007 | 4dr Wagon turbocharged 200hp 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Price is higher than a comparable Japanese car like an Accord or Camry, although the Passat does pack way more features and the base Passat is much better equipped than the base Accord or Camry. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 280-horsepower 3.6L V6 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
4 motion is very $$$ |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4 5-speed manual AWD |
Price a little on the high side becasue dealer does not compete in the Canadian market, it was sort of buy it or leave it. No incentaives like the US. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
so many options that add to sticker price |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 170hp 1.8L I4 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Passats just got too expensive for the common folk Handling was good but everything else was a joke. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 190-horsepower 2.8L V6 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
The Passat is more expensive than other cars when new but you are paying for quality. |
