If you want something fun to zip around in look for one of the new 2.5L Mazda3's or something else for a dd. Get a clean swapped K20 Honda, should get some nice mpgs and be quick.
Confused... no. I'm not "just" looking for better MPG. If I am going to stay in the 20's with MPG, a little additional power is not bad at all. All the cars listed are either on par with what I have now or close enough to keep me happy. My '93 Camaro with a 5.7L 350 averaged around 25 MPG overall. I had it for a couple years and absolutely loved it. My M3 is around 20.5 MPG overall. I will never own a Honda (car) except an S2000. Period. The Mazda is a possibility but I'd have to find one I like. I'm not a huge Mazda fan.
