As far as carbon foot print goes. A 50mpg car will always have a lower carbon foot print than a 49mpg car.

Now if you want to try and weight differing emissions as a trade off for low carbon emissions that comes down to a matter opinion.

If it meets emissions you nothing to feel guilty about unless you ditch the EGR or put a WAI/HAI on your car.
