Does the aero-civic have any opportunities for a few hundred lbs of weight reduction? That would probably help to put you in a better zone for keeping it in lean burn even more often.

As far as the Insight v. AeroCivic debate, it's pointless... you can't find even a gen1 Insight for the price of the parts, and chassis, involved in the AeroCivic, without getting a salvage certificate and a parts car.

Even if the Insight does get a couple more MPGs, you're not really pushing any envelopes, because at the MPG you guys are getting, 1 or 2 more is not a very significant number, other than being significant in how hard it is to obtain a number any higher than your average. The problem is that the cost/benefit ratio lands squarely in AeroCivic's land, except (maybe) the "pretty" factor, in some people's eyes.
