Found this really cool photo on the Noblesse offical site, taken before a huge nationwide Honda Fit meeting in Japan earlier this month. Noblesse never fails to impress, whether it's with their sexy dress-up builds or their track cars. -Mike Garrett...

GALLERY>>HONDAS AT TOKYO AUTO SALON

Filed under: Honda, Fit, S2000, NSX, Civic, Gallery, Mike Garrett, Tokyo Auto Salon, TAS 2009

Rolling on with my Tokyo Auto Salon coverage, it's time to look at this year's Honda showing. You have probably already seen photos of the cars displayed by Mugen and by Honda itself, but there plenty of other cool H-badged vehicles at TAS '09. I thought I'd start with the Tamon Design "Zaku" S2000 which was part of the Ray's Wheel both. This car has been in the making for over a year, and the finished product is really something....

RANDOM SNAP>>NOBLESSE FIT

Filed under: Random Snap, Japan, Honda, Fit, VIP Style, Mike Garrett, Wagon, Compact. Van

The redesigned 2009 Honda Fit just went on sale in the United States, but the new Fit has already been out here in Japan for a close to a year now. I was browsing through the latest issue of Style Wagon Magazine when I saw the newly updated Fit demo car from Noblesse. It is running a full Noblesse Lux type aero kit with a set of custom set of FRP blister fenders that are used to house the aggressive 18" Garson wheels (fitted with 5-lug adapters). Other coolness comes from a full set of Project...

ARCHIVE>>FIT FOR THE CIRCUIT

Filed under: Japan, Tsukuba, Honda, Fit, Archive, Compact

Four Honda Fits in the paddock at the Tsukuba 1000 course during the Mugen Circuit Challenge. These are nowhere near as the extreme as the J's Racing Fit I featured earlier, but even in mostly stock form the Fit makes more a fun track car that can get 35mpg and carry a ton of stuff. I think cars like the Fit, Vitz/Yaris, Suzuki Swift, and Mazda Demio are going to continue to grow in popularity for a long time. Stuff like this gets a thumbs up from me. Are you guys interested in seeing more tuned...

CAR FEATURE>>J'S RACING TIME ATTACK HONDA FIT

Filed under: Time Attack, Japan, Car Feature, Tsukuba, Racing, Honda, Fit, VTEC, J's Racing, Acura, Mike Garrett

The Honda Fit is the best selling car in Japan by a long shot. Even I drive one! Despite the fact that our Fit is painted a somewhat less common color, there have still been times when I've had trouble figuring out exactly which Fit was ours in a crowded parking lot. The Fit also has a strong following among tuners in Japan, although most of them are pretty mild as far as modifications go. Then on the other hand, you have the J's Racing Fit GT seen here. Mild is the last word I would use...
