" HONDA&amp;#039;S HAVING A FIT It&amp;#039;s simple: Honda has grown since its early days in the States. And so have its cars and their prices. So with the entry-level Civic now being more car and more money than many first-timers want and have, enter the Fit. The small five-door hatchback has a 109-hp Four and seats that flip, fold and disappear like magic (Honda calls them the Fit Magic Seat). So this is one small car can swallow people or stuff or both. Beginning to sound a bit like a Scion xB? Hmmm ... . Well, a sound system made for fast iPod connections and a slew of Honda Genuine Accessories right out of the box help us see that connection. Neat touches on this sub-$14,000 compact (price is an educated guesstimate; real pricing hasn&amp;#039;t been released yet) include racecar-style steering wheel paddle shifters for the optional automatic transmission on the Sport model. Fit also boasts such necessities as a rear roofline spoiler, an underbody kit and foglights. EXCUSE US ... We have to wonder how our friends at General Motors confused the term &amp;quot;press conference&amp;quot; with &amp;quot;staff meeting.&amp;quot; There was, as usual, a real scrum for seats for the hybrid Tahoe and Saturn Vue Green Line announcement. What would you expect when more than 40 seats--comprising the first three rows in the center of the stage--were all reserved for GM personnel? Media was relegated to the wings or the steps behind the photographers&amp;#039; tripods and video cameras. Wrongo. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
