The fit is supposed to be an entry-level car with decent gas mileage, theres still nothing entry-level about AWD. Granted they have an AWD version out in other countries, it still doesn't make sense for the states. I also wouldn't imagine that the AWD on the Fit would be that great, even though this is pure speculation on my part I imagine it to be like the first gen CR-V, pretty much just there for the sake of being called AWD

Besides the best place to bring in AWD would be to the Civic line, esp if this Toyota-Subaru collaboration comes about, it would help for Honda to have a AWD Sport Compact. This is not forgetting the fact that we'd probably need to see an Acura based AWD car before the Fit.

I also wouldn't allow myself to get caught up in the AWD hype- I've never had traction issues with my Teg as long as it had the right shoes on. I mean I wouldn't go out in the rain or snow with slippers on and not expect to get wet.
