Honda Motor Co’s subcompact Fit is the best seller in Japan for the April-September period. Next in line were Toyota Motor Corp’s Corolla and Vitz models. With Japan paying well over $6/gallon for gas and the mini-cars being the best sellers in the land, it stands to reason that two of Japan’s big three would have the best selling mini-cars in the land of the Rising Sun.

Honda’s Fit has been the best seller for 11 consecutive months says the Japan Automobile Dealers Association. The big news, of course, is that Honda is outdoing Toyota when Toyota is king, queen, prince, princess, gosh, the whole court.

We have two Hondas and a Toyota at our house and I am test driving a Suzuki this week. Yeah, at the Belew’s it’s all about which Japanese car is best. How about your household?
