Parks-
Thanks for an informative article. And you beat out the dealers.
And I'm not knocking CUV's. My '04 Vibe is great. In fact, I haven't bought anything without a hatch since before my '76 Capri. Ironically, this HR-V is for my wife and the Vibe is going to our daughter. If she doesn't care for the HR-V, the backup is a new Civic (no hatch anymore). The new Civics are about the size of an older gen Accord she had, so it's a good fit. So how much of the "Fit platform" is going into the HR-V? Honda seems to be backing away from this stance. Both are coming from Celaya, but it's a Civic motor, and you imply above the chassis and underbody are toughened up. Wonder how many parts will interchange? Very few parts interchange on the Matrix / Corolla CUV combo, except most of the drive train.
