Right there with you — though for me, it's not the tech features, it's the premium and sporty features. Honda and Acura should have a competent hatchback in their lineups to compete with other manufacturers' entries — from Mazda3's all the way to Audi A3's and VW Golf GTI's in-between.
I've driven the Fit Sport and like it, but it's a big change from my current TSX in terms of feature set and performance. I love small cars and the versatility of hatchbacks, but the selection from my favourite car maker are severely limited.
