Car Show We Don't Watch Names Honda Fit "Best of the Year"

PBS's MotorWeek, which is like Top Gear without humor, high production value or entertaining hosts, has named its "Drivers' Choice Awards" for 2007. Most of the choices aren't that surprising: Lexus LS as the "Best Luxury Sedan" and Ford Shelby GT500 for the "Best Performance Car." The one thing that sticks out is the Honda Fit, which is not only the "Best Small Car" but also the "Best of the Year." This is a year after the Honda Civic was named "Best of the Year." Perhaps this shouldn't be surprising given that those who would get up early to watch a car show on PBS are also in the small car and Honda-buying demographic. The full list below the jump:
