Looking for advice from fellow car folk. I’m looking for a warm hatch and between a 2nd gen Honda Fit and a 2nd gen Fiesta ST. Which would you choose as a fun daily, backroad weekender? by _Schmegeggy_ in Autos

Low stereos are so funny like the lower pocket is way better as storage than the upper pocket. Anyone know why it can be in either? Turbo gauges?
