I own a 2013 Fit made in Japan. How’s the quality compared to the Fit’s made in Mexico with the CVT? The one that I’m looking at is rebuilt for ~10K.
Rebuilt transmission or rebuilt vehicle with a Salvage title ? Either one I would avoid . But if you really want it pay a shop to look it over and then decide

If you’re talking about the car having a rebuilt transmission I wouldn’t worry, as long as the car checks out. OTOH, as Volvo says, if the car has been rebuilt steer clear.

Rebuilt title i’d stay away from, a friend has a '15 Fit EX-L CVT made in Mexico and for the last 5 or so years he’s simply had to maintain the car. Holding up very well to a 90mi round trip commute. No real difference to his past Japan built Honda’s.
Consumer Reports’ data says overall reliability of the 2015 Fit is average. That was the first year of a redesign. For 2016 and 2018 it’s better than average; for 2017 and 2018 much better than average.
