No problems in Alaska with the Fit. We have several members at Hondafitforums that have had their Fits there for years. you might want to invest in a block heater and maybe a battery blanket or charger as there has been record cold up there this year.

Thanks for the advice, is the engine block heater a pretty easy install? Also I hear there isnt very many Honda fans out there. I've been told they are real big on subaru and EVo's you know the AWD cars, wich makes total sence...

Hi,
A lower radiator hose heater or a heater hose heater is generally a little easier to install. Given the tiny battery a battery warmer would be good or pop the battery out if the car is to sit for a while.
Four snows and you'll be passin' Subies.
Learn about Dry-Gas to prevent fuel line freeze-ups.
