Yeah, it's great car for public roads! Almost as fun as a dedicated sports car with all the space, reliability, mpg, cheap maintenance. Really if you do basic suspension, tires, and more power they will hang with the sports cars in the straights, and corners. Sadly they never did a si, it really has the potential.

I am blown away both by how slow in a straight line this car is and also how well it carries speed through a corner. Very well sorted front drive chassis. Reminds me of a beater Saturn I used to have that I would go canyon carving with, but that car was much faster than this one in a straight line somehow. 2200 lbs and ~125 hp so it wasn't as slow as you'd think, but not exactly winning drag races against V8's either. Probably my favorite thing about that car though was that you could push that thing right to its limits and if you were on a windy road, you could barely crack the speed limit with it on the short straights. In my opinion this is the best kind of car to rip up and down mountain roads. Fun to toss around but not fast enough to get you in trouble.

If you change to IK22 plugs over IK23 and run premium gas, the ecu in these cars will actually advance timing after a tank and a half of gas or so and you pick up approx 3% hp gain. I actually felt it in my butt dyno slightly. Vtec also sounds way more obvious with a cold air intake as always. These cars were sold for 91 octane in japan, but the engine specs are identical to NA.

The Honda Fit was planned to launch as "Honda Fitta" but after the Swedish/Norwegian found out the name was soon changed to Jazz.. "The Japanese car manufacturer Honda's model Jazz, was supposed to be called Honda Fitta (Honda Fitta is small on the outside, but big when you get in, was the slogan), until Honda's Japanese leadership became aware of the word's Nordic meaning." (Fitta means the same as C#nt in Norway/sweden)

I have something pretty similar lol CVT with paddle shift (magnesium ones lol) but ~148 hp 2.0L 4cyl engine. But mine doesn't auto upshift like this. It allows me to hit rev limiter in any of the 6 "gears". Full manual control of the shifts. It does auto downshift if engine is below 1000 rpm in a "gear" (that is normal). Lot of fun like you've shown, in mine I can even switch between manual and auto using the paddles on the move or standstill. Makes it very easy to pass traffic or go around corners faster than usual.
