    Other than the one here that blew #3 piston, I haven't seen too many issues. The nice thing about multi-air is it acts as a failsafe. If you lose oil pressure, the engine will shut off. Not like a normal engine that will self destruct.

    Wife has had her Dart for over 2 years and 50,000kms with Zero issues (knock on wood)

    Never been to the dealer and never a CEL. Definitely get the manual trans with the 1.4l turbo

    On paper, the Dart would be a full second faster than the Fit in the 1/4, bringing you into the low 16's, or just about on part with an old SOHC neon. Certainly a nicer commute though.

    Hell, the new fit is much faster than the old one. 0-60 is supposed to be in the mid 7 second range, IIRC. Have you thought about that?
